Reports detail various Hindu mantras and hymns used for spiritual, mental, and material benefits. These include Shiva mantras such as the Panchakshari, the Shiva Gayatri, and the Mahamrityunjaya prayer, which are used to attract happiness, wisdom, and protection. The Shani Chalisa is also noted for its role in fostering discipline and financial steadiness.

Regarding the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra specifically, practitioners often chant it 108 times using a Rudraksha mala to seek mental peace and relief from negative thoughts. While traditional practices emphasize clear pronunciation and devotion during specific occasions like Mahashivratri, it is noted that such spiritual practices should not be viewed as a substitute for medical treatment.
