First step of the mantra practice
The practice of mantra writing is Akṣar Brahma, where the alphabet transmits the highest reality. Write your mantra daily without time restriction, but with great care, not carelessness. Your writing is the physical form of your thoughts; it holds immense power to affect humanity. Therefore, one must pray that the hand is merely an instrument for what is real to be written. Traditionally, great writers attributed their work to destiny, not themselves, and sought forgiveness for any unintended harm. The pen, or Kalam, is considered the world's most powerful force, which we now call the media—the movement of the pen. The principle remains the same whether using a pen or a computer.
"Please let my body and my hand be only an instrument. You, Lord, should write what is real, what is to be written."
"It is not I who wrote this, but only my pen, which was inspired by destiny."
