Guru Gaitri Mantra Meditation

This meditation works on subconscious blocks, especially around issues of fear. How will something hurt me or direct me away from what I am trying to do, and what is the action needed? Is it a personal threat, directed at you, or an accident with errors you can correct, or a pure act of nature and coincidence?

When the Negative Mind is too strong, you may appear to be rigid, reactive, and over-dominant. When balanced you deliver strong focused actions and you enjoy challenge. You act, but always with a cover and a back-up plan.

The Practice

Posture: Sit straight in Easy Pose.

Eyes: Focus at the brow point.

Mudra: Hands on knees in Gyan Mudra.

Mantra: Chant this mantra on one breath. It takes about 15 seconds:

Gobinday    [Sustains You]

Mukanday   [Liberates You]

Udaaray      [Elevates You]

Apaaray     [Delivers You Across]

Hareeang    [Destroys All]

Kareeang    [Creates All]

Nirnaamay  [Beyond Category and Name]

Akaamay    [Beyond Desire]

To chant it correctly, inhale deeply, pull in the navel, and apply Mulbandh as you begin to chant. Pull Mulbandh a little tighter with each phrase. Exhale and continue.

Chant for 31 minutes.
