Chanting in any language has a positive effect on the mind, body, and spirit. The sounds of chanting are believed to have a transformative effect on those who chant. Chanting is also often believed to lead you to a place of spiritual awakening and peace. However, there is something unique and special about chanting in Sanskrit. When we chant in Sanskrit, it activates different parts of our minds as well as our bodies and spirits. In this blog post, we’ll explore why that is the case with an exploration of 7 reasons why chanting in Sanskrit is so empowering and healing.
Sanskrit: The Language of the Soul
Sanskrit is one of the oldest languages in the world. Scholars believe that it developed between 3100 and 2500 years ago, and it is thought that it was first spoken in Northern India. Sanskrit is unique in that it is a “mantra-based language” which means that words are formed on the basis of their sound, or shabda. Words in Sanskrit are created from a root that is a sound, and from that sound, various other words are formed according to the rules of grammar. For example, the word “shanti” can be broken down into “sham”, and “ti”, and from that, you can create many other words like “shantam” which means “peacefulness”, and “shantih” which means “calmness”. As a mantra-based language, Sanskrit is also believed to be the language of the soul. This is because the sounds of Sanskrit are formed in a way that bypasses the intellect and goes straight to the soul. This means that when you chant, you are directly and immediately accessing your soul. That’s why it’s so powerful and healing!
Hooking Up Your Vocals to Your Brainstem and Brain
When we chant, we are not just talking. We are “singing” or “chanting”. The difference between the two is that when we sing, we are primarily using our intellect to create the melody. When we are chanting, however, we are using our vocals to access our brainstem and brain. When we sing, we are using our “left-brain” and when we chant, we are using our “right-brain”. The right-brain is the source of our creativity, our intuition, and our ability to see things with a broader and more holistic perspective. The left-brain, by comparison, is the source of our logic, reasoning, and ability to focus. The left-brain is also the source of our self-critical thoughts, and our worries and fears. When we chant, we are accessing the right-brain and bypassing the left-brain. This means that we are calming our critical thoughts, worries and fears. When you chant, it helps you to relax and release the stress and anxiety in your body.
Sanskrit Is A Language Based On Vowels And Consonants
When we chant in English or other languages, we usually focus on the vowel sounds. When we chant in Sanskrit, however, we don’t focus on the vowel sounds as much as we do on the consonants. This is because Sanskrit is a language based on vowels and consonants. When you chant in Sanskrit, you are connecting with the specific sounds of the language. You are also connecting with the energy of each sound. This is why chanting in Sanskrit is so potent and healing. When you chant in English, you can still have a positive effect on your body and mind, but it’s not as potent as chanting in Sanskrit.
Chanting Has A Calming Effect On The Body
When we chant, our vocals are activated. Our emotions and feelings are then connected to our vocals and our vocals are connected to our brainstem and brain. When our vocals are activated, our “amygdala” which is the part of our brain that generates negative emotions like stress and anxiety, is also activated. At the same time, our “pre-frontal cortex” which generates positive emotions like happiness and joy, is turned off. When we chant, our “amygdala” is activated and we start to feel negative emotions like stress and anxiety. At the same time, our “pre-frontal cortex” is turned off and we begin to feel positive emotions like happiness and joy. When we chant, we are tapping into the part of our brain that generates negative emotions. At the same time, we are turning off the part of our brain that generates positive emotions.
Chanting Repatitions Helps You To Memorize Things
When you chant repatitions, it activates certain parts of your brain. This means that when you chant, you are “activating” your memory. When you chant repatitions, you are “activating” your right hippocampus, which is where your “long-term memory” is stored. At the same time, you are “activating” your left hippocampus, which is where your “short-term memory” is stored. When you chant, you are connecting the sounds of the words to the melody of the chanting. This helps you to remember things better. In fact, when you chant, it’s almost as if you are singing a song in your head, and in your heart.
