Words have power because they are auditory symbols of what they represent. If ordinary words have so much power, those words, which have come down the ages, sanctified their divine associations became veritably receptacles of divine.

Mantra is word (or words) which provides a perfect safeguard having destroyed all the fears by (a powerful mental) chanting. Mantra is formed of two words MAN and TRA. Mantras are, infact, meant to bring desired result by their chanting. Since the Word "man" is for concentration of the mind and "tra" is trana i.e. protection.
