(A Quick and Brief explanation -> a full explanation will take pages :P)
Settling of Earth Deity:
Not only informing the surrounding Earth Deities that someone or groups will be here doing chanting, practising or rituals, but also informing the other Deities like Mountain, Water, etc, to take know, in-order not to disturb or protect the area of events from other negative energies from entering.
Cleansing of Heaven and Earth or Surrounding:
Cleansing of Heaven and Earth doesnt mean the one who recite it has the power to make the Heaven or Earth clean, but actually meaning the surrounding area. Once recite this mantra, plus enhancing a bowl of water with the talisman symbol and sprankle the water ard the area will help to get rid of the negative or un-wanted energies in-order to allow a certain action or event to be carried out.
The Great Golden Brightness Mantra:
A very important and powerful Taoist Mantra. Help to gather the positive energies or the energy from the Heaven and Earth to enter or enhance one's physical body, in-order to allow the one person to carry on his/her tasks.
Incenses Offering Mantra:
This mantra is used during offering of incenses. (You can refer to my posting in the past, where I share with all of you of how to recite it when offering ur incenses)
Yes, this will be a bit difficult, but, if you are keen in learning, by listening carefully and by following the way your Master pass the skill to you, you will be able to pick up in no time.
Unlike other Religions, Taoism need one self's Heart, Mind & Soul to merge and get the Real & Hidden meaning that hide between the lines & characters, not the Pronouciation.
Pronouciation only take in consideration when performing Rituals/Ceremonies that benefits the other Beings, for self cultivation, your mind & soul matter.
Cool! I want to learn the hidden meaning betwen the characters and where they come from, does it open the golden flower? How do I find a Taoist Master? I am very thankful to you for posting these mantras! Salutations!
1st, like what I advise the others, you will need to do a Spiritual Registration to become an Official Taoist before any training or learning can starts.
2nd, you will need to seek mastership under a Master, if you are not staying in Asia, then this will be a bit diffcult.
And last, before learning the hidden meaning of this mantra, you will need to go thru the Taoist Basic Training, this can take months or years and so, you have to be keen, sincere and have determination.
Thanks for your answer, is this mantra ideal for Dan Tian meditation? The hand postures are these related to Daoist Thunder Magic? By reciting this mantra wrong can you invoke the wrong spirits?
sorry for the questions just would like to understand it more before learning it!!!
u mean the spiirt animals, dragon, white tiger, black tortise, phoniex?
How many time does one say this mantra during meditation? Also if i can ask you a private type question, when you recite it what do you feel or see, experience?
No, that are known as The Four Directional Spiritual Animals, these Five Emperors are not the same as that, they represent the Five Direction, the Five Elements and the Five Initial form of Energies that exist during the creation of the Universe, alot of the articles that publish online had mix them up.
For a trained person, reciting once is enough, for new learner, a several times will be needed till a positive heat present.
No, other than Mantras that being passed down in Hinduism, all the rest of the Mantras from other Religions do not have the same ability or level with Taoist Mantras.
Taoist Mantras are the 2nd Oldest Mantra in this Mortal World.
In Taoism, there are 2 Jin Guang Shen Zhou, this one here is consider as the Small or 2nd Jin Guang Zhou, if will to compare, this one is much more "younger", but both are as old as 1000++ years old.
Wow, thanks for the nice breakdown! I have a question on the picture of the Yin Yang on that page can you discribe the different shape of this Yin Yang symbol im very interested in that shape?!
In Taoist Context, theres only 1 form of initial Yin Yang, but in this Mortal World, Yin Yang can be merge into different other things, such as Medical, Meditation, etc....
Thats the Yin Yang being merge into Chinese Physician.
As you know that, Chinese Physician is part of Taoism and by using the Yin Yang sign, ppl will know that Chinese Physician in certain area still using the Theory from Taoist Contexts, etc.

ReplyDeleteThankyou

ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your answer, is this mantra ideal for Dan Tian meditation? The hand postures are these related to Daoist Thunder Magic? By reciting this mantra wrong can you invoke the wrong spirits?
sorry for the questions just would like to understand it more before learning it!!!
:)
As for Dan Tian, not directly associated, but no harm trying or using it.
ReplyDeleteFor the start, dont use the hand formation until you master the reciting of the Mantra.
Can you do one in cantonese Guangdong Wah?
ReplyDeleteThe 5 Emporers are the 5 Organs and the hand signs are based on the 12 chinee zodiacs with Heavenly Spirits. Is there any danger in doing this mantra?
thankyou! :)
Guang Dong, I'm not able to, but will try to get someone to do that.
ReplyDeleteFor the Wu Di are not refering to the Five Organs, but they Five Directional Deities that being call-upon to provide the Blessing and Protection.
u mean the spiirt animals, dragon, white tiger, black tortise, phoniex?
ReplyDeleteHow many time does one say this mantra during meditation? Also if i can ask you a private type question, when you recite it what do you feel or see, experience?

ReplyDeleteFor a trained person, reciting once is enough, for new learner, a several times will be needed till a positive heat present.
Ah water, metal, fire, wood, earth? :)
ReplyDeleteYou only use the left hand to do the hand signs or both hands together?
Is this mantra performed during meditation or before and is meditation done in lotus or seated in a chair or standing form>?
Thanks for taking the time to answer the questions!
FP :)
javewu,
ReplyDeleteDo you have any other mantras for Thunder God 'Lei Kung"?
FP
More than that.
ReplyDeleteUsing your Left Hand.
Do it before, as this is to call upon the Positive Energy to do protection on one self.
You can search in the picture section where I do a post on Thunder Deity.
ReplyDeleteGreat, thankyou would it be benifical to know what the different finger signs mean or doesnt matter?
ReplyDeleteFor the moment, you just need to recite the Mantra, cos using of the Finger Formation will need sometime.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteJust a quick question do these Mantras do the same as Tibetan and Hindu, buddhist Mantras?
Do you know how old the Taoist Light mantra is?
FP
No, other than Mantras that being passed down in Hinduism, all the rest of the Mantras from other Religions do not have the same ability or level with Taoist Mantras.
