Similar to a mantra, a sutra is a sound or vibration that when repeated, allows you to transcend into a deeper state of consciousness. Whereas a mantra has no meaning, however, a sutra has an intention coded in the sound. When you repeat a sutra, you embed that intention in your consciousness, which increases the likelihood that your desired outcome will be fulfilled. According to the Vedic tradition, sutras that have been used for thousands of years by millions of people are inherently more powerful than new ones because each time a sutra is used for a particular purpose, it helps increase the probability that its intention will be fulfilled.
