The necessity of connection to the whole
A cell in the sole of a foot has no goal; it does not know why it exists. It only knows that repeatedly a pressure is put on it and then is lifted. It does not know why! Perhaps if it could think, it would say this person is mad. Why does he put pressure on me and then lift it?
Now, when 100 trillion cells gather together, they form a human who has aspiration. He can have plans and purposes. Now he knows what he wants. Our situation in relation to the whole is like a cell to us. Unless man makes a connection to the whole, he will not know the significance of his existence, the purpose of creation, and his role in this mighty plan.
The basic frequency of existence and use of mantra
During millennia mankind realized the significance of such a connection and methods were suggested to him for establishing this connection. For example, it is said that if someone reads Upanishads’ texts, it can align him to the basic frequency of existence, and mantras and zikrs were suggested.
All these suggestions were to make humans compatible with the existence so that he can realize the language of existence. Without such compatibility, he will not be able to receive messages from the universe. Although every aspect of existence is trying to tell him something, due to his disharmony with the whole, he cannot receive it. Nonetheless, the truth of these teachings was lost in history, and man has remained separated from the whole.
There exists a problem though, that the mantras do not work the way that they are expected. Something is missing in them. A mantra for a person must be exclusively suggested for that person. It should be completely compatible with their own being. Thus, no two persons can have the same mantra. This is something beyond human capabilities.
Therefore, a type of mantra that is not specifically suggested for a person usually does not create its expected outcome. There is a test to find out if a mantra is right. If after some time, like a year, that master sees his disciple, he must be able to tell which mantra he gave him. In other words, someone who suggests that mantra should be able to read that person’s entire existence.
