The Naming of Mantraam

‘Mantraam’ doesn’t mean ‘Mantram,’ which in Sanskrit has its own specific meaning. :)
Yes, I was once told that the addition of an extra 'a' makes it meaningless.

But years ago, when it came to naming a thought—an idea born to work for a cause—I had only this in mind:
I wanted 'Ma' (the divine mother) and 'Raam' (the essence of Lord Rama) to be part of it.
For me, it wasn’t just 'Rama'; it was 'Raam'—the sound that resonates in the heart, where the mind rests in divine remembrance, mann antar sadaiv Raam samaye. With this feeling, the name 'Mantraam' came into existence.

It wasn’t about being correct linguistically; it was about what it represented. 😊😊

‘Mantraam’ symbolizes my devotion not just to Sri Hanuman ji but also to the ideals he embodies.
Hanuman ji is more than a deity to me; he is my Prathama Guru, my guide, my friend. He has shown me how to live, how to work, and how to worship. His unwavering devotion to his Ishtam is what I aspire to emulate. For me, he is everything.

This name, this essence—'Mantraam'—gave me everything. It was the key that unlocked my destiny (bhagyam),
the door I had been seeking, and it led me to where I was meant to be.

When I began this journey with a burning desire to work for a cause, I was blessed to meet brilliant Sanskrit masters—teachers of Shakta Tantras, guides in Shaiva Tattvas.
At first, I wasn’t even interested in the Vaishnava Marga; that came last. But life has a way of surprising you. I realized that even those paths, which seemed to work with inferior motives, had a plan so precise that it illuminated truths visible across every corner of the world.

And you know what? That’s exactly how I deciphered everything so quickly—without overthinking it. (Donkeys don’t use brains, after all! 🤣)
Following their carefully cultivated methods, I unknowingly reached my destination.
It felt so simple in hindsight, and I couldn’t help but wonder: Why doesn’t everyone understand this? 😂

So, thanks to the so-called blunders and detours along the way, this 'donkey' found its Master.
And I couldn’t be more grateful. 😅😎🙂

The search was for my Guru Maa, whom I found finally
