Meditation is a science, i.e., it is a technical practice that
results in a predictable and reliable outcome or experience.

Quotable Quote

"Thoughts reflect and affect our mood, our attitude and our general tenor.
Thoughts are silent sounds. And sounds are electromagnetic vibrations.
The more refined our thoughts, the more elevated our vibration; the more
elevated our vibration, the closer we get to the highest vibration of all–our
own divine nature. The entire universe was built on sound (Word), which is
nothing but vibration. By vibrating a certain combination of sounds, we are
able to tune into various levels of intelligence, or consciousness. Thus,
chanting mantras is a conscious method of controlling our moods, and in
turn, our frequency and resultant all-around radiance." -- Donna Quesada

These Sanskrit sounds, Sa, Ta, Na, Ma, translate respectively to birth, life, death, rebirth.

On "Sa" touch the first finger, index finger, (Jupiter finger) with the thumb tip.
On "Ta" touch the middle finger (Saturn finger) with the thumb tip.
On "Na" touch the ring finger (Sun finger) with the thumb tip.
On "Ma" touch the pinky (Mercury finger) with the thumb tip.
Eyes: Eyes are closed and focused at the brow point.

Time: Continue chanting, Sa Ta Na Ma, for a total of 12 minutes as follows.

Chant out loud for 2 minutes
Chant in a whisper for 2 minutes
Chant mentally in silence for 4
Chant in a whisper for 2 minutes
Chant out loud for 2 minutes

To End: Inhale deeply. Stretch the hands up as far as possible spread the fingers wide. Stretch the spine and take several deep breaths. Relax at least 1 minute.

Comments: The connotation of the word “kriya” is an action or series of actions that completes a process and has a predictable outcome. By practicing Kirtan Kriya, we can begin to understand the cycle of creation. From the Infinite comes life, from life comes death or change. From death or change comes the re-birth of consciousness to the joy of the Infinite through which compassion leads back to life.

Ra Ma Da Sa
Healing Meditation

Heal yourself. Heal the world.
Hear Snatam Kaur here.

Posture: Sit in easy pose.

Focus: Eyes are closed and focused at the third-eye point.

Mantra: Ra Ma Da Sa, Sa Say So Hung. The mantra should be sung in one complete exhalation. As you chant the first Sa, your navel point is pulled in so that this syllable is abbreviated. You should also pull your navel point in as you chant Hung. Hung should be vibrated at the root of the nose. The rest of the syllables are drawn out in a strong, powerful chant. Strive to keep your chant at full volume (loud but not raucous) throughout the meditation.

Meaning of the Mantra:

Ra = sun energy

Ma = moon energy

Da = earth energy

Sa = infinity, universal energy

Sa (repeated)

Say = the personal embodiment of Sa

So = the personal sense of merger with Sa

Hung = the Infinite, vibrating and real

This mantra literally means: “I am Thou." It can also mean, "the service of God is within me.“

Mudra: Bend the arms and bring the elbows against the side of the rib cage. The palms of the hands are parallel and face the sky (see photo of Snatam Kaur above). The elbows are snug at your sides with the forearms in close to your upper arms. The hands are at a 60 degree angle, halfway between pointing forward and pointing to the sides.

Time: 11 minutes.

End: Inhale deeply, hold your breath and visualize the person you want to send healing to (it can be yourself). Make that image in your mind very clear and see a glowing green light around the person. Keeping that person in your mind, exhale. Inhale deeply, hold your breath and continue to send the person healing green light. Still keeping that vision in your mind, exhale. For the last time, inhale deeply, hold your breath and see the person very clearly, see the green healing light bathing the person, bathing every cell in the body.

Exhale and relax.
