________________
plus Hreim, Hroum, and Hrah for Right Knowledge, Faith and Conduct, are the eight forms of Hreem.
The Rishi Mandal Mantra also includes the first letters of each of the five divine personalities:
A - Arihant, Si- Siddha, A - Acharya, U - Upadhyaya, Sa - Sadhu.
It then stresses the attainment of Gyan, Darshan, Charitra (Right Knowledge, Faith and Conduct). The Rishi Mandal Mantra begins with Hreem and ends with Hreem, finally stating that all powers come from Hreem.
With the repetition of the mantra and stotram, Right Knowledge, Faith and Conduct awaken; these purify the physical, fire and causal bodies respectively. The stotram gives the key for merging with the arihanta and for the mastery of the inner bodies by visualization of mantra and colour.
