The Power of Words: Daily Life Practices Incorporating Teachings From Indian Psychology
Abstract
Language holds a multifaceted influence on our thoughts and culture, embodying the creative power of expression as recognized in Indian philosophies like Sabda Sakti. The Vedas highlight language's divine essence, linking it to cosmic energy and the profound connection between humanity and the divine. Chanting and linguistic vibrations serve as bridges to higher realities, exemplified by the concept of “Shabda Brahman” and the sacred syllable 'Om'. The transformative potential of language is evident in practices like “nadopasana,” elevating individuals and reflecting divine revelation. Beyond communication, positive language engrains ethical values and gratitude in daily life, reflecting interconnectedness as emphasized in Hindu teachings. This interconnectedness extends to psychology, where language shapes cognitive processes, self-perception, and relationships, particularly within the Indian context. This chapter delves into the potency of positive words, exploring their therapeutic impact and integration into daily practices.
