Overview
Almost every faith has prayers for protection, from the Hanuman Chalisa and Gayatri Mantra to the morning and evening adhkar, the Mool Mantar and the Jain Navkar Mantra. People turn to them in times of worry and at moments of change, and many simply say them every day.
Our guidance helps you understand a prayer, its tradition and how it is usually recited, so that you can practise with confidence. We do not claim that any prayer guarantees protection; for believers it is an expression of trust and a source of calm.
Cultural and traditional background
Protective prayers have been passed down through families and teachers for centuries. Their form varies widely. Some are short verses recited silently, some are sung in groups and some are tied to specific times of day or festivals.
We encourage learning prayers from a respected teacher or from your family's own tradition, and we are careful not to mix practices in a way that would be disrespectful to any faith.
