It’s hard to find a Kundalini yogi that hasn’t been, in some way or form, transformed by the power of sound. In this post, we journey into the beloved and medicinal world of mantra and explore the ways in which mantra serves as a bridge between worlds.

To vibrate the Cosmos is to come into rhythm and harmony with the natural order of this Universe. Our fast paced modern world has moved us farther away from our own natural rhythms and intelligence.
The power of the mind is incredible, and without meditation it is like giving a child a high powered race car without proper instruction.
Each human being has an inner guru which is guiding them through time and space. This mantra is a recognition of that guru and it is humbling the ego before this internal wisdom.

This kriya uses the power of sound to cut through negativity and re-route the mind. The objective here is to reverse negative thinking.
Pran Bandha Mantra means that mantra, or sound combination, that collects, binds, and commands the life force or prana. Pavan is the air, the breath, the carrier of prana, or the life force. This is God in action.
The mantra Ek Ong Kar, Sat Gur Prasad is said to elevate the self beyond duality and establish the flow of the spirit. It can make the mind powerful enough to remove obstacles.
