November insists on going out with a bang, and my mind is totally keyed up these days. While appreciate all of the energy stirring, I'm really feeling the need to ground that energy. So, this week's mantra is the Bhaja Man Mere mantra:
bhaja man mere hari ka nam, hari ka nam sat nam (bah-jah mahn meh-rei ha-ree kah nahm, ha-ree kah nahm saht nahm)
This mantra comes from the Kundalini yoga tradition, and its specific purpose is to calm the mind. It can be translated as, "Oh my mind, meditate on God's name. God's name is the truth of my identity."
We are all pieces of the divine, and we all carry within us the abundance of divine grace. What could be more calming than knowing that?
Here is a lovely interpretation of this chant by Guruganesha Singh. Feel free to chant along or to listen and absorb the energy. Also, feel free to practice 108 repetitions on your own.
Namaste and happy Monday, everyone!
