I am currently researching on tantra sadhana. Can anybody explain why a mantra has to be recited 313 times, 21,000 times or x times for x days please? How significant is it? Thx (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

As Crowley puts it in The Book of 4 (it's in the beginning), the reciting of mantras and counting is to quiet the mind entirely to go into a state of gnosis. One of several techniques, whatever sinks your submarine.
