"An excellent book! . . . a splendid explanation of how mantrams
work, how to choose one, and above all, how to work on oneself in
general.” — Journal of Transpersonal Psychology
“A brilliant and inspiring book. As study of the mantram, or
Prayer-word . . . this book is unparalleled.” — B. C. Catholic
“This clearly written little book is very pleasing. It is helpful
in an academic sense because it gives precise, clear information
about the power, uses, and variety of mantrams. It is helpful in a
practical sense because it gives detailed instructions in choosing
and using the mantram for psychological, spiritual, and
intellectual development. . . . Eawaran's book is to be recommended
in the highest terms.” — Choice
