Aleister Crowley Diary Entry Friday, 9 August 1901
A day of revelation of Arcana. Ten minutes A’sana and breathing exercise. Latter unexpectedly trying. Also practised Mental Muttering whilst in Â’sana. Repeating “Namo Shivaya Namaha Aum,” which takes, roughly, 86 seconds for 50 repetitions, i.e. about 1,000 in half an hour.
I practised this Mantra for thirty minutes: 10 minutes aloud; 10 minutes in silence; 10 minutes by hearing.
