The Palm Mantra
This Mantra should be chanted on waking up.
Look at your palms and say:
Karaagre vasate Laxmih,
Karamoole Saraswati,
Karamadhye tu Govindah.
Prabhaate karadarshanam
It means:
Goddess Laxmi resides on the tip of the
fingers.
Goddess Saraswati resides on the wrist.
In the center of the palm resides Lord Govinda
Himself.
In this manner you look at your palms.

SANSKRIT
Sanskrit
believes that the sound of the word never gets ruined and that it has an
everlasting value.
Words
in Sanskrit open out from their seed (beej) form.
A
root is always a single syllable that contains one of the basic sounds a, I,
u, ri
The
root or seed may create a word, yet the word will vibrate to its best, and
gives it tremendous power.
The
Vedic or the Sanskrit view gives more importance to the special sound it
should produce, than to the meaning of the spoken word.
