I heard a story a few days ago. It has since become my favorite story as it outlines perfectly how to have success with magick, spell casting and ANYTHING is life.
Some of you know I practise Raja Yoga and Mantra Meditation, which is what this story involves, but it applies to magic and spell casting as well. I head this story from a Raja Yoga Master regarding one of his students. It was truely inspiring.
The Master told the story of a man who had come to him wanting to have success in his business. This man has reached a point in his business where he felt blocked and unable to progress to the next level. In fact his success has started to dry up. The Master gave this man The Esoteric Lakshmi Mantra…
“Om Gum Shrim Maha Lakshmiyei Swaha”
Lakshmi is the Hindu Goddess of Abundance and part of the feminine trinity.
It is a very powerful Mantra I have used it myself and had huge success with it. The Master told the business man to preform Mantra Siddhi with the Lakshmi Mantra. Mantra Siddhi is basically chanting the Mantra in intervals of 108 until 125 000 repetitions has been attained.
It is a very noble goal to strive for and not many people have the mental discipline to commit to preforming it.
The business man was very excited and went away to preform this Mantra. He diligently committed himself to the Mantra and managed to reach 125 000 repetitions after 3 months. Nothing happened. The business man’s mindset here is brilliant.
He did not blame the Mantra
He did not blame the Raja Yogi Master
He did not blame the Goddess
He figured he a larger block than he originally thought which he needed to overcome so he decided he was going to preform Mantra Siddhi with the Lakshmi Mantra again.
So he diligently went about preforming 125 000 repitions of the Lakshmi Mantra again. It took him another three months to complete Mantra Siddhi. Again nothing happened. Once again the business man proved he had a superior mindset, as again…
He Did not blame the Mantra
He did not blame the Raja Yogi Master
He did not blame the Goddess.
He though, oh man I must have a huge block that needs to be overcome. So he decided to preform Mantra Siddhi with the Lakshmi Mantra one more time. So he began diligently working towards attaining Mantra Siddhi. This time it took him four months to complete the 125 000 repitions. At the completion of his journey the flood gates opened and the business man was blessed with insane success and prosperity! He had so much money flowing to him that he was overjoyed.
It was at that point that he choose to phone the Raja Yogi Master and thank him profusely for the wonderful gift that he has given him. The business man was so grateful and so full of happiness and gratitude, which is another important step to being successful. Being Grateful!
It took the business man 10 months to complete the Mantra and attain the success he desired, but once it was attained the flood gates opened. So even when casting spells, sometimes results take longer than expected to manifest. You do not know what is fully going on with you energy, but you need to have faith and keep going to what you want, stop blaming other, be grateful and be willing to keep at it. It is the only way to get powerful results and craft the life that you desire.
One thing to really pay attention here to is this mans mindset. His mindset is in such a good powerful place it is no wonder that he has huge financial success. How you come at life and at spell casting and magic in general will dictate the level of success that you attain. In fact it is like that with anything. If you want to attain a level of mastery you need to practise diligently and be grateful for the successes that you do attain and continue to build on them. Be willing to do what it takes and commit yourself and your rewards will be great!
Happy Chanting!
