Chanting Sacred Mantras

Chanting is an ancient form of prayer, meditation and devotion

Chanting calms the mind and opens the heart. Repetition of the names of the Sacred is a form of meditation and is a devotional, contemplative practice found in all spiritual traditions.

As a form of meditation, it leads us back toward the greater Self, the Divinity within.

Chanting can help us to let go into Presence, relaxing into the deep well of inner silence,

and rest in the resonant Sacred Source deep within the heart. 

Excerpt from Baba Hanuman,

By Krishna Das

 

Jaya Seeyaa Raama, Jai Jai Hanumaan
Victory to Sita and Ram, Victory to Hanuman
Victory over the darkness of suffering…


Jaya Bajrangbalee, Baba Hanuman
Victory to the one with the body of a thunderbolt
My Baba, Hanuman.


Sankata Mochan kripaa nidhaan
You are home of all Grace.
Destroy all my problems, calamities and sufferings.

Soma Mantra 

Soma is the nurturing, cooling and nourishing vibrational power of Nature. It emanates from the moon and is the building block of health and immunity, or Ojas as we say in Ayurveda.
It is the watery feminine energy.  In Ayurveda and yoga, Soma is the nectar of life which rejuvenates and restores your body and mind to create a feeling of fullness.
Soma gives you more vitality vigor and strength and nourishes your mind and body.
It can be enhanced and built by the energy or Prana you take in through the body and mind and can be experienced in meditation as bliss and joy. 
Soma is produced through deep meditative and yogic practices and provides a deep physical rejuvenation and experience of higher states of consciousness and our natural state of Being.
