Testimony by Divleen

Hi everyone, my name is Divleen, and I just wanted to share my experience after attending the Ganga Retreat Program in April 2026.

Since then, I feel that I have truly been initiated into the practice of Mantra Chanting.

Before attending the Ganga Retreat, I never really connected with mantras. I didn’t feel naturally inclined to chant them, and it was not something I practiced regularly. But after the Ganga Program, something changed. I started chanting the mantras every day, and it has now become a regular part of my daily practice.

As we know, each day is associated with a particular planet, and that planet has a corresponding mantra. So, each day, I chant the mantra associated with that day’s planetary energy.

What I have observed is quite beautiful. My relationships with the people around me have always been wonderful, but after I started chanting these mantras, I feel that my relationships have become even stronger and deeper.

There is one experience in particular that really touched me.

My brother has been living in the US for the last 18 years, and during all these years, we have never actually been together in person to celebrate Raksha Bandhan or for me to tied Rakhi on him.

This year, however, his family has moved to Hyderabad, and for the first time in 18 years, I tied Rakhi on my brother in person.

For me, this is a very big and emotional thing. And I genuinely feel that there is some connection between this beautiful development and my regular practice of Mantra Chanting.

In the Esoteric Astrology Workshop conducted by IWC, we are provided with a laminated sheet containing all the planetary mantras. So it becomes very easy to refer to the sheet and chant the mantra associated with the particular planet and day.

And secondly, the IWC YouTube channel also has the mantra associated with each day and its corresponding planet. So you can simply access the channel, listen to the mantra, and chant along.

As we know, every planet is connected with different aspects of our lives, including our relationships. When we chant the corresponding mantra, we connect with the energy associated with that planet. It helps us align with and receive that energy into our system, for our highest good—and, in my experience, this can also have a beautiful influence on our relationships.

So, I just wanted to share this experience with all of you.

I hope it helps and inspires you to explore the practice of Mantra Chanting for yourself.

Thank you.
