<p><b>New page</b></p><div>A mantra is a [[mystic]]al formula of [[incantation]]s and [[invocation]]s associated with the religion of [[Hinduism]]. The meaning in [[Sanskrit]] is "sacred counsel" or "formula." In [[Tantra]] practices, they are known to be [[magic]]al [[prayer]]s or phrases that can be used to aid the individual by invoking the gods and conjuring magickal power through words. <br />
<br />
The most popular Vedic mantra is the Gayatri invocation of the Sun, chanted at sunrise. However, various kinds of mantras accompany every [[Hindu]] ritual, requesting or compelling a deity to give specific blessings to the individual. The [[Atharva-Veda]] contains mantras that are believed to have the power of [[black magic]] (similar to [[goety]] in [[Hermetic traditions]]) that can be used directly on a friend or enemy.<br />
