CHANT IS POWER
Prayer is universal. Every religion throughout the world, in all places, at all times, uses prayer. In many
religions the prayers are chanted. Psalms are a form of chanted prayer. What is the purpose of the
chant? How does it aid the prayer?
The chant, it turns out, is the key to successful prayer! Why? Because it puts you into the prayer!
The chant is a form, a style, a method of approach that ensures the drawing-off of your own personal
“power�?(or mana) from within and, through it, projecting your desires.
Don’t be afraid of the word “prayer�? You want a certain horse to win the 3:30 race? In wanting it to
win you are, in effect (or in reality), praying for it to win! To go to the dictionary again, prayer is
“reverent petition made to a deity or the object of worship�? This does not mean you have to be
religious, in the strict sense of the word, in order to pray. After all, at the racetrack you might be
praying to the great God Luck�? or to his brother the God of Gambling!
But to want, or ever to literally pray, for your horse to win may not be enough. You need the
personal
factor.
Frank C. was an inveterate gambler. He especially like to play the horses—even though he invariably
lost!
“Why do you keep pouring your money down the drain, the way”} I once asked him.
Well, odds are that one day I’m bound to wines�?hr grinned.
So I started telling Frank a little of what I had learned over the years about getting what you desire.
“Its not enough to stand at the rail and scream for your horse to win,�?I said. “The gods help those
who help themselves. Why not put some of your own power behind your hose? You push him to the
front, ahead of all the others?
“With my mind?�?he asked incredulously.
“Certainly,�?I said. I went on to explain a little of how a simple chant can act as a catalyst, and draw
out the power that lies dormant within all of us. I even wrote down for him a chant designed
specifically
to bring about a gambling win (see Chapter 2) By the time the
“I didn’t see Frank for about a week or two after that, but the next time I did see him he was did see
him he was driving a brand new car.
“What happened to your old ‘bomb�?�?I sake.
He grinned, “Gave it away,�?he sai. “I bought this with my recent winnings on the horses. I won over
$5,000 in ten days! You were right, you know. It’s the personal touch that makes the difference!�?/STRONG>
Your Power Unlocked
Remember the chant is merely a tool used to unlock your power; to bring out the kinetic energy
within you and start it roiling towards your personal goals. You have the power,
Chant-O-Matics merely lets you make use of it.
