Dhwani (sound) is said to have originated from the Damru of Lord Shiva. It is the first manifestation of physical creation. Dhwani has a deep and profound effect on a person's physical body. A specific type of sound touches a specific centre of energy (chakra) in the body. While heavier sounds touch the lower chakras, subtler sounds like mantras (hymns) touch higher chakras. Mantras are a combination of sounds programmed by Vedic rishis to have powerful effects on the body and the environment. When chanted in the prescribed manner, mantras create the desired result.
