Muntras

Muntras mystic verses or incantations which form the grand charm of the Hindfi Brahmins. They occupy a very prominent place in the Hindu religion. The constant and universal belief is that when the Brahmin repeats the Muntras the deities must come obedient to his call, agreeably to the Sanscrit verse: " The universe is under the power of the deities, the deities are under the power of the Muntras, the Muntras are under the power of the Brahmins; consequently the Brahmins are gods." The Muntras are the essence of the Vedas, and the united power of Brahma, Vishnu, and Siva.
