Book Reviews of Mantra Meditation for Creating Abundance (Mantra Meditations Series)
Book Review: Errors in the printed material accompanying cd
Summary: 3 Stars
I recently acquired the Sounds True disc, Mantra Meditation For Creating Abundance. On track # 11, it appears as though the translations for the following may have been reversed:
6. Om Hrim Lakshmi-yei Tarjane-bhyam Namaha (index finger)
through
9. Om Hrim Maya-yei Kanishta-Bhyam Namaha (little finger).
When Thomas Ashley-Farrand gives the audio instructions, he begins the sequence with the little finger and ends with the index finger.
Hard to say which version is accurate (although I would assume that it is a misprint and that Mr. Ashley-Farrand got it right on the recording). Its a mystery whether the translations have also been reversed, or whether the translated meanings are still accurate and only the order of the fingers has been reversed.
Also, on #9. Om Hrim Maya-yei Kanishta-Bhyam Namaha,
the pronunciation sounds like "Kanishtika-Bhyam" rather than "Kanishta-Bhyam".
Again, no way to know if this is a misprint or simply a different pronunciation.
I am about mid-way through a 40 day discipline and have been following the wording and order given on the audio, ignoring the printed material. I did write to Mr. Farrand's email for comments (which, incidentally, is [...], but reads [...]) but received no response.
Overall, I feel that when undertaking a mantra discipline, accuracy in pronunciation and wording is of great importance. Mr. Farrand's CD's may serve as a rudimentary introduction to Sanskrit mantra for the typical Westerner, but for the serious seeker, I would recommend an authentic Indian text.
