3. The mantra for self-protection :
Self-protection is the matter of prime concem in human life. It is very necessary to protect oneself from calamity, terror, enemy, sudden demise, accident, ghosts and evil spirits. As such, for selfprotection every practitioner should chant 27 times the following mantra as first thing every morning and evening. With these mantras one should visualize the five coloured shields of the five paramesthi (the paramount revered ones). For example while chanting 'namo arihantānam' think
"A crystaline white hard unpierceable shield exists around me and no 'outside power can harm or disturb me.” Focusing the mantra move open palm over different parts of the body. Continue repeating the mantra. For this, carefully observe the illustration of the Self-protection Indra Shield and accordingly create the shield around yourself. 4.
