Bodhi-bowl presents “Million Money Mantra,” a hypnotic folk-pop invocation that breathes new life into an ancient wisdom. The track is built around the powerful “Katha Ngern Lan,” a mantra reputed to unlock prosperity for those who chant it with devotion. But the true key lies in its condition: the practice must be rooted in selfless charity and it is best to attain Samadhi in this practice. Samadhi means letting go of all discursive thoughts. Therefore, it is important to abstain from thinking about what you want or is lacking when chanting.
The song weaves a shamanic drumbeat with ethereal melodies, guiding the listener toward learning the mantra. It’s a musical commandment that posits a profound truth: the direct path to riches is not through getting, but through giving and knowing contentment.

If you want riches,

Open your hand.

Beware the hunger.
Beware the “more.”
It is a phantom,
A locked door.
Contentment is treasure.
Greed is the cost.
Count what you have,
Not what you’ve lost.
(Chorus)
This is richness!
The open hand!
This is richness!
To understand!

The condition for practising this chant is to give to charity, specifically donate to the Thai Buddhist Monastery. (Don’t ask me why not other Buddhist tradition, its just a condition passed down to me and I am now parroting it to you)
During practice, stop discursive thoughts to focus.
As a lay person, money is an important part of life and I hope everyone will be prosperous and be freed from poverty. Feel free to share it with other people too.
