    No review here. Sorry. Nothing but praise. This book is changing my life so fast that I feel like I’m in a dream! I’ve used the Nam Myoho Renge Kyo Buddhist chant for years to transform my life internally and externally, but its brought up so much karma I knew I had to find a new and gentler path. Now, mystical happenings abound in a more directed way, and it’s only been a few weeks! These mantras give one the power to work on specific problems related to everything from finance and relationships to physical and mental affliction. The results I’ve had have been tremendous!! Incredibly well-written, and easy to read, no doubt due to the Saraswati chant by the author. The mantras in this book if done as a “Sadhana” advised by Mr. Ashley-Farrand (40 days straight)I’m sure can change one’s life dramatically as if one were taking medecine. They’ll be making a dent in many people’s negative karma soon, ultimately changing the course of the world. As far as I’m concerned, this book will make a priceless gift to loved ones. God bless!!

    What a revelation! This book has given me incredible insight and is a joy to read and to study – like magic jumping out of the pages. As a guide for improving one’s life, it is unparalleled. A thorough discussion of the background, lore, history and application of sound in healing, together with Vedic cosmology and the views of scientists, as well as pieces on Karma, Astrology and the Chakras. All the important areas of life are covered and the various relevant mantras provided, with phonetic guide to pronunciation and English translation. Throughout, examples are given of healings achieved and problems solved through the use of specific mantras. The author has an engaging style and it’s hard to put the book down. I strongly recommend you get the CD at the same time (available here on amazon) as it helps immensely in “getting into” the mantra habit and with pronunciation. It is also very beautiful to listen to. The book has a glossary of Sanskrit and other terms, an extensive bibliography and an index.

    I bought Healing Mantras because I was curious after reading Tina Turner’s life story. In her book, she says chanting changed her life. And since I think Tina Turner is awsome – why not?The first thing I liked about the book is that it’s clear and to the point. It’s well organized. All the mantras are grouped into categories such as: overcoming obstacles, healing, prosperity, etc. It’s small, but packed with information. I’ve seen other mantra books printed on exquisite paper, written in golden script and adorned with cutsie drawings of little huts and birds and Blah-Blah-Blah…all for about 30 bucks. Which brings up another point: the price is nice.Mr. Farrand includes a brief history of mantras which I found interesting and colorful. His approach to mantra practice is flexible, and he describes both traditional and informal methods. After reading the book, I also bought the CD which really helped me learn the correct pronounciation and rhythm for each mantra. I’ve now used almost all of this author’s books and tapes. I highly recommend Mr. Farrand’s work (and his website for additional info), especially for a beginner or someone who can’t find a mantra class.

    If you look at most affirmations books, they try to impress subconscious mind by repeating logical statements by conscious mind. Here is a higher level of affirmations, because subconscious is much more impressed if you speak its language. The vedic sounds are magical and arouse subconscious readily. I was pumped with so much energy while chanting, it was ridiculous. Clarifies situations, brings calmness to mind and helps me get a feeling I am on the right course. Could not say enough. It is a classic.

    I used the Lakshmi (for prosperity) and Ganesha (for removal of obstacles) mantras from this book to help me find a job. My unemployment benefits were about to run out and I wasn’t finding anything. Despite no background in the industry I am now in, on the 40th (the last) day of my practice, I was hired in an entry level position that will soon lead to more money. Previously, I was getting second interviews, but losing out to other people with more experience.

    There is nothing in my resume to suggest that I had an office background or barely even computer skills. I am looking to take a class and explained that in the cover letter and interview. Yet the woman who interviewed and hired me, for some reason, thought I had an extensive background in both! I can’t help but feel that the mantras helped me overcome this significant barrier hiring-wise. Now I am using a Saraswati mantra from the book to help me with the learning curve of my new job and another mantra from the book for self confidence and strength which feels VERY powerful and I only just today starting using it. [I also improved my chances of getting hired by scheduling my interviews when the moon was NOT "void of course." See Jim Maynard's Celestial Guides or other resources to know when this is.]

    I feel I am only just scratching the surface of what this book can help me do in a variety of areas of my life. I read all kinds of metaphysical books and try to adjust my thinking, but find it hard to break old habits of being fearful or limited in my thinking. What I love about this book is this: it gives you something concrete to DO everyday, twice a day that seems to work, regardless. I spent $13 on a mala to help me count my mantra repetitions and probably did only about 20 minutes of work twice a day. If I had done even more, I think my outcome would have been even better. Yet, from where I started, this is a huge victory for me.

    As the author of the book states, mantras don’t take the place of, in my case, doing the usual job search actions. However, there is no doubt in my mind that using mantras made all the difference in the outcome. It even, I think, steered me around a deceptive, (what I thought was a) sure-thing job with another company. It turned out that they had gone through five people in a very short time in the position. Not a good sign. I’ll leave the descriptions of this book to other reviewers. What I wanted to know when I was deciding to get this book and looking at people’s reviews of it was what their outcomes of doing the mantras were. I hope mine will help others to get this book and take this fantastic journey!
