Basic Mantras
Basic Mantras
In Sanskrit, manana means to meditate. A mantra is that which is uttered in meditation. It is the phonetisation of vibrations into a specific sound which has a direct effect on the inner being. When a realised soul (Sahaja Yogi) utters a mantra, he/she meditates spiritual energy for the specific purpose for which the mantra is intended.
Meditation
Mantras are most effective when used whilst sitting in meditation. To do this, find a clean, quiet place. Set Shri Matajis picture on a table, placing a lit candle before the picture. Sit comfortably with hands relaxed on your lap, palms upward. This can be done in conjunction with footsoaking. After putting yourself in bandhan, keeping your attention loose, see what sensations i.e. tingling, numbness, slight heat you may feel in your fingers or in your body at the location of the Chakras. These sensations tell you where the blockages are in your Chakras. Clear them, using bandhan and the appropriate mantras (checking which finger or location on the hand corresponds to which Chakra). After some time these sensations will disappear, and you will start to feel coolness on your hands. This means that the Chakras have cleared and that Kundalini is rising unimpeded. Sometimes, you may feel the cool breeze at first, and then heat in the hands or in the body. This happens when the Kundalini starts to burn away the impurities that are clogging the Chakra, and is a good sign. The process can be helped along by footsoaking. If the heat is more in left hand and also you do not feel vibrations on left hand, put that hand out towards Shri Matajis photograph and right hand palm down on Mother Earth. In a severe case hold the left hand towards a flame of a candle, palm upwards and very near the flame (not so near that the finger gets burnt) and right hand on ground. If right hand is hot/warm or no vibrations are coming, put that hand towards Shri Matajis picture and left hand palm facing upwards and towards the back. No candle. If you are disturbed by thought or mental activity, try doing the Attention Exercise given in the Explanation of Sahaj Terms. Do not fight your thoughts, but try to just witness them and let them go. Gradually, you will find yourself in thoughtless awareness, without any effort.

MANTRAS THE AFFIRMATIONS There are two types of Mantras: (1) the Affirmation, and (2) the Poem of Praise. (2) We use them in different circumstances. The Affirmation When a Chakra has been affected and if the residing deity of the Chakra recedes, the qualities of that Chakra do not maintain themselves without constant attention and nourishment. The Affirmation is used to bring our attention back to the qualities so the deity returns, making these qualities return and act spontaneously within us.

The Poem of Praise These verses are said in Sanskrit and praise the residing Deities now in the Being of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, thus giving sustenance and energy to those centres. The qualities of the Deities manifest themselves in your everyday life spontaneously, bringing you towards an integration of all the qualities of the Divine. Sanskrit is used, for when the Kundalini rises. She makes vibrations. These vibrations are sounds (the language of the Gods). Sanskrit derives its sounds from those vibrations.
