METAPHYSICS- THE MANTRA TO UNTIE KARMIC KNOTS

Metaphysics Q&A 060 – The Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots

Q060: 
Respected Master Lu, can the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots (Chieh Chieh Chou) be used to transform and resolve the negative karmic ties in several relationships at the same time? For example, before we recite the mantra, can we say “May the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva help me, <your full name>, to transform and resolve the negative karmic ties between me, my father <full name>, and my mother <full name>”?

A060:
Each individual has different negative karmas and negative karmic ties. Your parents have their own negative karmas and negative karmic ties with each other, which is different to the negative karmic ties that you have with each of them. If you recite the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots, you must separate your prayers to transform and resolve the negative karmic ties for each relationship. It would be very difficult if you combine several relationships together.

Recitation of the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots is equivalent to sincerely asking the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva to help you to transform and resolve the negative karmic ties between people. 

Some of its great powers include: 
clearing misunderstandings between couples; 
creating harmony in marriage and family; 
resolving conflicts at work; and eliminating negative karmas from the past.

In general, the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots can be recited 21, 27, 49, or 108 times per day. It can be recited during the day or at night time.

Before reciting the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots, you can say the following prayer, “May the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>, help me to untie my karmic knots with <other party’s full name> (can be your relative, friend, or colleague’s name), and to transform and resolve our conflicts.”

The Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots can also be used to transform and resolve the negative karmic ties between: <full name> and prison; <full name> and fishing; <full name> and drugs; <full name> and gambling; as well as the negative karmic ties within relationships. However, you cannot just recite the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots on its own. This mantra can only be used as a supplemental component, just like one of the necessary ingredients in a medicine.

The Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots requires the Heart Sutra (Hsin Ching) as a foundation in order to achieve effective results. In general, if you are reciting the Heart Sutra 7 times per day for Daily Recitation (Kung Ko), you can then combine it with the recitation of the Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots for up to 49 times per day. If you need to recite this mantra for more than 49 times per day, then for the Heart Sutra, you should increase your recitation to at least 13 times per day.
