People
of Peace
It is now the 21st century and we and our planet can no longer live without ‘peace of mind’ and ‘peace on Earth’. We can not continue to characterize differences between people based on old paradigms of race, religion, culture or gender. All human souls came to this Earth completely equal, each with The Creator's unique gifts. In the words of Yogi Bhajan, "If you cannot see God in all -- you cannot see God at all." Among our senses, the eyes are linked most strongly to the brain, the nose to the emotional memory, and our ears to the heart. The mind represents who we are and the voice is a broadcaster of what we think. But often times the mind and voice wander and chatter without focus or meaning. Chanting an affirmation, a mantra, brings the mind into focus on a sound, therefore reducing the chatter and allowing one's peaceful center to come to the forefront of experience. The science of mantra has more to do with what the sounds do physiologically than what they mean intellectually. So whether you consciously understand the words-sounds or not, they are understood at some level and science has proven that they can profoundly affect the mind and body. The yogic science of melody and rhythm is called Laya yoga, a part of the greater science of Kundalini Yoga introduced to the West from India in 1969 by Yogi Bhajan, a Sikh. His mission: to teach the techniques of peace of mind to teachers who would spread peace on Earth. See TheMahanTantric.com. PEACE
ON EARTH
"My reflection on the current world situation is that everyone is doing what he or she thinks is right and has an opinion that someone else is wrong. Right and wrong is born out of duality. There is no peace in duality. There is no resolution in right and wrong. In duality there is inner conflict which is projected out into the world as conflict that all of us can see. We are here to see it. We are to be reminded to go inside and resolve our own inner conflict. To remove ourselves from duality and to achieve inner peace we are required to non-judgementally be with life exactly the way it IS. We are not required to like what we are witnessing. But we are required not to judge it. Our inner peace will create outer peace. When we witness peace in the world, we know that our job is done. Then we can enjoy together the fruits of our work." -- Yogi Bhajan - Spiritual Teacher and Sikh Minister
MEDITATIONS Meditation can be practiced daily. A regular, same-time-daily schedule for 40 days for each meditation is recommended. (Given the daily changes in the Earth's magnetic field, the ideal time for meditation is between 3 AM and 6 AM.) However, to be practical and moderate in all undertakings is the universal rule. Unless otherwise indicated, you may choose the length of time for which you intend to do these exercises such as 3 minute, 11 minute or 31 minute - yogic time intervals - and set your timer. Choose the time that works for you. See notice below.* Ra

Ma Da Sa Sa Say So Hung Meditation
The Posture
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. See More on Mudras. 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. Kirtan
Kriya
Quotable Quote "Thoughts
reflect and affect our mood, our attitude and our general tenor. Sa Ta Na Ma Meditation Posture: Sit straight in easy pose as shown. Meditate at the brow point (third eye) and produce the five primal sounds: (A) Sa, Ta, Na, Ma. (See Video on Primal Sounds.) 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.
Time: Continue chanting, Sa Ta Na Ma, for a total of 12 minutes as follows. Chant
out loud for 2 minutes Finish: Inhale deeply. Stretch the hands up as far as possible and
spread them wide. Stretch the spine and take several deep breaths.
Exhale and relax at least 1 minute.

Exercise Lie flat on your stomach. Place your hands in fists under the body close to the ovaries and inside the hips. Keep the chin and upper torso on the ground and raise your legs as high as you can without straining yourself. Your legs should stay as straight as possible. Breathe long and deeply through the nose for 1-3 minutes. Then lower your legs, take a few deep breaths and relax. This posture is called Shalabasama or Locust and is excellent for toning the lower back, stomach and legs, and for women, relieving pre-menstrual discomfort.
Sit cross-legged or in a chair with your spine straight in neck lock and feet flat on the floor. Raise your arms, bringing your hands up to ear level. Pull the shoulders back so that there is a slight pressure on the spine between the shoulders and the nape of the neck. Lock the ring and the pinkie fingers down with the thumbs and extend the forefingers and middle fingers straight upward. Close your eyes and concentrate on the top of the head. Breathe long and deep. Continue for 11 minutes. The Desiderata
Sit in a cross-legged position or in a chair with your spine straight in neck lock and feet flat on the floor. Cross your arms, right palm on top of the left elbow and the top of the left hand under the right elbow. Fingers are together. Bring the crossed arms up so the arms are parallel to the ground and stretch out the arms from the shoulders as much as possible. Close the eyes and allow the breath to become slow. Continue for 3-minutes. Desiderata II
Sit cross-legged or in a chair with your spine straight in neck lock and feet flat on the floor. Curl your tongue down the middle to its length as much as you can, and extend it out slightly past the lips. Inhale deeply through the tongue and exhale through the nose. Continue for 5 minutes. Then inhale, pull the tongue in and hold the breath briefly. Exhale and relax. This breath soothes and cools the body and has been used by yogis to reduce fever. It is excellent for rejuvenation and detoxification. Special
Meditation Sit with a straight back in a cross legged position, or in a chair with your spine straight in neck lock, and feet flat on the floor. Your eyes, 9/10 closed, are focused at the tip of the nose. Bring your forearms up to a 60 degree angle and hit the sides of the hands together, palms down, and chant: HAR, from the navel. Use the tip of the tongue to roll the R with each HAR. Then, hit the sides of the hands together, palms up, and chant: HAR. The thumbs will hit when the palms are down. The movement is rhythmic and the speed is about one hit of the hands per second. See The Science of Mantra Meditation. Special

Naanak, anand ho-aa, Satiguroo mai paa-i-aa. *Anand means bliss, but it is not just bliss in the way that we are used to thinking. Anand is the state of bliss that comes when every word that you speak, and every action you take supports the light and journey of your soul. In the words of Yogi Bhajan, "Many people believe that the spiritual path is difficult and the neurotic path is easy ... It takes the same effort and energy to walk either path. The difficulty lies in the nature of the mind and how it grasps things and becomes entranced by feelings and sensations (Maya) ... Direct the mind with immediate sensations and convoluted negotiations, and we create neurosis and confusion. Direct it with the power of the Infinite Word, words of truth, and we will excel with clarity, kindness, and love." See 10 Reasons to Chant Mantras.
