I appreciate an actual text reference since most people just talk about it like they are the authority on it. Often insisting that the mispronounced aum is the correct way. In Sanskrit it is two sounds, Oh and mmm.
😊I love the metaphor of ink on your tissues you provide and the possibility of unwriting and rewrite on the cells but what practical application would it have?
Namaste Om should start from the centre of the navel. ‘A’ should come from there, ‘U’ should come from the throat and ‘M’ should be in your head. In this process, All the three syllables should be chanted with equal time. It should sound as OM and not as AUM separately. We can chant it 21 times or 108 times in one session After the chanting session, the chanter should self analyse the experience and see if it energises them. Thanks
Psyche: A = Will U = Heart M = Mind Mind = Inspiration Heart = Aspiration Will = Volition Integration = Integrity = Soul Chanting slows the out-breath, which shifts the brain's frequency from beta to alpha. Absolute = All-inclusive
Al again. I’d like to share the following. I was writing poetry back in the early 70s but kept getting rejection after rejection after rejection and almost every rejection contained a form letter that included GOOD LUCK. After the 10 rejection letter, I decided to quit writing poems. But here’s the IRONY! A creative thought went through me like an orgasm and I sat do own at the Typer and here’s what came out; BAD LUCK GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK,GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK,GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK,
Enjoyed your talk. We are all God but not God Realized. God Realization requires the help of a Perfect Spiritual Master or Avatar. Don’t fool yourself. God Realization is infinite Power Knowledge Bliss continuous without a break. Very few attain this exalted state beyond the subtle ( pran energy planes ( 1-4) and Mental ( 5th) and emotional / feelings planes ( 5-6). The difference between our thoughts and feelings and someone on the 5th /6th plane respectively is our thoughts are limited by the finite mind and our feeling are also limited but when you are on the 5th plane you are the MAKER of all thoughts and on the 6th plane the MAKER of all feelings ie intuition, inspiration Illumination etc. That’s the difference. A giant step in Realization is to silence the mind ( even better vanish it forever) but this requires help. You cannot achieve it of your own volition. I love Anna’s discoursed because she points at the Truth that she gained probably from lifetimes of suffering and seeking after money, relationships , activities that didn’t bring her the true Happiness she so longed for. But she is now on the right pathless path. Here are 2 passages that I’m certain she espouses. It’s from my spiritual Master Avatar Meher Baba. I believe both are from his book “ The Everything and the Nothing” The Lover And The Beloved "God is love. And love must love. And to love there must be a Beloved. But since God is Existence infinite and eternal there is no one for Him to love but Himself. And in order to love Himself, He must imagine Himself as the Beloved whom He as the lover imagines He loves. Beloved and lover implies separation. And separation creates longing; and longing causes search. And the wider and more intense the search, the greater the separation and the more terrible the longing. When longing is at its most intense point, separation is complete, and the purpose of separation, which was that love might experience itself as lover and Beloved, is fulfilled; and union follows. And when union is attained, the lover knows that he himself was all along the Beloved, whom he loved and desired union with; and that all the impossible situations that he overcame were obstacles which he himself had placed in the path to himself. To attain union is so impossibly difficult because it is impossible to become what you already are! Union is nothing other than knowledge of oneself as the Only One. Meher Baba ** “Mind wants to know that which is beyond mind. To know that which is beyond mind, mind must go-vanish, leaving no vestige of itself behind. The humour of it is, the mind, which is finite, wants to retain itself and yet know Truth, which is infinite. This is the position of those who seek Truth through intellect. Few grasp this fact, and so most grope and grapple in vain. “ -Meher Baba All love to all, Al
What a shallowminded person you are. From the whole 7mins of deep universal knowledge, your brain took the English grammar error to express in comments.
Realmente, é uma pena que David Bowie não tenha aderido ao mundo do Yoga...(*) trad. It really is a shame that David Bowie has not joined the world of Yoga...

What a true master guru of Yoga Sciences. I once watched him do Bhastrikā pranayama ( advance breathing). Bhastrika is an important breath exercise in yoga and pranayama. It is sometimes treated as a kriya or 'cleansing action' along with kapalabhati to clear the airways in preparation for other pranayama techniques. He did that breathing techniques like no one that I ever seen before. I would be truly honored train with this guru, for he is highly skilled and is Swami Rama best trained student.
"You gotta get through the anger to get to the pain." Sophie Bierker 💙 {{{ pssssst: I used to have my Kids "put the gloves on" and go downstairs and punch a 50-lb punching bag (the gloves would take up my son's whole arms!) whenever they began to lash out at each other. They always agreed to do it readily ... and It always worked! Skream into a pillow, Journal, Dance, Meditate, Breeeeeathe ... whatever it takes to get through the anger without doing harm to another Being. }}} 🙏🏽

So true that the practice is solitary and it comes back to commitment. Through that solitary practice, I feel part of a community and something much greater - life.
