Dear Blessed,

Better you ask a punditji. But I will tell you about Vishnu
Sahasranaamam. There are others.

Vishnu Sahasranaamam proper starts with shloka (1): vishvam
vishnurvashatkaaro...

In that order:

shloka 14.. vedho.. for excellence in studies shloka 16..
braajishnur.. stomach ailments

shloka 18.. atheendhriyo.. for vigour shloka 19 maahaabudhdhir.. for
refined understanding

shloka 24... sahasra moordhaa.. excellent vision 26: sathkarthaa for
fame

27 siddhhaartha... for achievement of sankalpa 32 kaamamaa .. for
marriage

42 vyavasaayo.. for high position 44 vaikunta... rid of fear of death

48 sarvadharshee.. buddhi based on dharmic concepts 56 anandho for joy

64 anivarththee for welfare 67 bhuushayo... rid of sorrow

73 purna... rid of disease 75 sathgathi.. for mokshasiddhi 88..
sulabha.. to defeat enemies

89 amoorthi.. to be rid of dangers 96 svasthidha.. for
auspiciousness

99 uththaarano.. to be rid of nightmares 106 devakinandana to be rid
of sins

OM namo naaraayanaaya

Hey, some good ones that I learned for those
sort of things are, "I like myself",
" I feel terrific", "I'm the best", "I can do it",
"I love my work", "I'm unstoppable"

First thing in the morning when you wake up, is
to sit up staight and say these mantras with
emotion, "I like myself" 10, 50 or even 100 times.

The more you like yourself the better you
perform at whatever you do. And the better you
perform the more you like yourself.

At first you might have to say it through
gritted teeth - until your mind gives up and your
subconscious mind accepts it. Then you
will become unstoppable at achieving your goals.

Apparently we all have a self-image and lots of
minor self-concepts.

For example we have a self concept for how
good we are at yoga, another one for how good we
are at playing the guitar, and another one for how
good we are our job, and another one for how good
we are with money etc etc.

Saying, I like myself is a really good mantra.
The more you like yourself, your capacity for
loving others expands too.

And if you can maintain a happy, joyfull and
cheerful attitude despite the ups and downs of
life then that's also non attachment and
self-disciplin or mind control.

Our true nature is happiness, love, joy, peace
and gratitude etc. Sometimes going for our goals
helps reveal our true nature to ourselves.

Life here in a human body is a boon, like a rare
precious gift- not to be wasted. It's best to live
life to the full, and practice things like gratitute,
joy and happiness.

Apparently the rules for spirituality change
every 100 years, and majorly every 1000 or so years,
and especially after the millenium- a lot of stuff is
going out of date fast, especially old fashioned
strict spritual regimes that are becoming totally
unecesary in this new yuga.

The best thing about hatha yoga is that
it compliments and facilitates ANY spiriutal
practice that you do.
