You will need a teacher to help you learn the manna. The traditional way of reciting the manna is in the characteristic flat delivery of the Brahmin priests. However, I have also heard more melodious and even sing-along renditions by some teachers and students of Astanga yoga. Regardless of the style in which the mantra are recited, the sound of the Sanskrit language is said to have a holy quality (much like the idea of Latin being sacred in European culture). Even if you don’t understand what you are chanting, the simple act of reciting the words creates a positive force.
It is not essential to recite the mantra.They are part of the Hindu teachers’ tradition, but this may not be meaningful to you. You may prefer to replace the mantra with prayers from your own religious or spiritual tradition, or with a positive affirmation that has personal significance.
