Are there different mantras for different effects?

Yes please are there a fixed set of needs that define every human being you mentioned that all our cravings are distorted expressions of needs well modern psychology based on different theories has different ideas of what the needs are and they all point toward the reality in some ways if you look at it from the soul’s definition perspective the soul is satchitananda so that means that soul is eternal so we long one of our longest, least most basic needs is security we fear our mortality and the fragility that comes with our bodily embodiment so we need security that’s one of our basic needs chit refers to the output capacity for cognition so we have curiosity we have a need to know one of the things that causes us disorientation exasperation frustration is if we don’t know so that’s also a second need it’s important third is so this can be expressed in various ways at one level we need to know things at an existential level necessary for us to live beyond that we also seek to know things that are beneficial for us trauma trauma our perspective satisfying our curiosity joy pleasure seeking there are healthier and unhealthier ways of seeking pleasure we seek pleasure that is compatible with our curiosity and with our needs for curiosity and security so that’s the broad understanding of the needs now beyond this specific there can be multiple ways in which our needs can be classified and that depends on time-based circumstances but the key principle is that we need to rather than trying to look for an exhaustive set of needs that we need to satisfy we need to see that each one of us is individual and the soul is covered to different degrees by different conditions and because of that we can’t know exactly which of our needs are how prominent at what time so rather than looking for an exhaustive set of needs we focus more on doing the needful trying to explore and learn and go forward from there the more we introspect the better we will learn about what our needs are and how to fulfill them.
