I had the same thought when I first read about them. I have always wondered what the name for amygdala is in spanish, since it's already taken for tonsil (amigdala).Originally Posted by sono
Frankly, when I first did mantras I had no idea that they were for a specific meaning or usage- we were taught (so many years ago) that the reason for a mantra was to use to empty the mind, so that any word would do as long as it wouldn't trigger an association. So I guess if you're trying to evoke a certain feeling via vibration, doing them 'automatically' probably won't make any difference. So,I am slightly concerned with mantra usage, that one might begin to do the repetitions mechanically, so although I do use mantras I change them every few weeks. Am sure that different sound waves impact on the physical brain structures as much as on the etheric ones.. . ?
