Media Reviews
"An excellent book! . . . a splendid explanation of how mantrams work, how to choose one, and above all, how to work on oneself in general.” — Journal of Transpersonal Psychology
“A brilliant and inspiring book. As study of the mantram, or Prayer-word . . . this book is unparalleled.” — B. C. Catholic
“This clearly written little book is very pleasing. It is helpful in an academic sense because it gives precise, clear information about the power, uses, and variety of mantrams. It is helpful in a practical sense because it gives detailed instructions in choosing and using the mantram for psychological, spiritual, and intellectual development. . . . Eawaran's book is to be recommended in the highest terms.” — Choice
