Welcome.
My name is Julia Barclay and I'm so happy to be here with you today as we call on the energy of my dear friend,
Ganesha.
Ganesha is known as the remover of obstacles.
And is invoked at the beginning of any journey.
Whether it's a real journey,
A physical journey that you're taking.
Or a metaphysical journey.
Or a creative journey,
Perhaps you're starting a new project,
Having a baby,
Writing a book.
Ganesha is called on to smooth the path and to ensure success.
Ultimately,
The path that Ganesha is supporting us to move through with ease is the path of liberation.
And you'll see here that he's holding a bowl of sweets.
These sweets represent the sweetness and the fulfillment and the promise.
Of the path of yoga,
Of liberation.
They represent Sat,
Chit,
Ananda.
Consciousness and bliss.
Which is your essential nature and the nature that gets uncovered as we move through the blocks.
Of the mind,
The emotional body,
And the ego.
So not only does Ganesha help us move through the challenges on the way to that.
But ironically,
Ganesha gives us the gift of those challenges.
So.
.
.
The difficulties,
The struggles that we face in life.
Are our opportunity to work through.
The limitations of the ego.
Perhaps there is something very difficult that you've been through in your life and you look back now.
And you can see the blessings of that time.
You can see the way that it developed more compassion in you or That's it.
Opened your heart or eyes.
There were perhaps some blessings and gifts that came from that challenge.
And so,
Too,
Maybe you have something that you're dealing with in this moment,
Maybe there's a challenge you're facing.
And what if we look at it as an evolutionary edge?
As your current evolutionary journey.
Challenge that is being given to you to become more and more of your true self to soften the grip of the ego where we are perhaps seeing incorrectly.
And so.
Let's just take a moment to connect with your intention for this mantra.
Is there a challenge that you're facing in your life?
That feels difficult or overwhelming.
Where you would like the grace of Ganesh.
To come in.
And really.
Help you move through this.
Maybe it's a physical issue,
Maybe it's a health challenge,
Maybe it's a relational issue.
Or something around your work.
Whatever it is.
Let's call on Ganesh today.
To bring the grace to help you move through this with more ease.
Swiftness.
And so you can come more into a place of radiant well-being.
And that true nature of peace,
Love and joy that you are already.
And if there is a journey you're about to begin.
Or a project you're beginning.
Also calling on Ganesh to smooth the path.
And.
Let it be a joyful,
Successful journey.
So the mantra to call on Ganesh is Om Gam.
Can you repeat that?
Om Gam.
Gana Pataye.
Namaha.
Om Gam.
Ghana Pattaya.
Nama ha.
It's like the website address to call on this energy,
The URL.
And then there's another word which is Sharanam.
Sharanam.
Which means to take refuge in.
To take shelter in the energy of Ganesh.
Shelter in this divine grace.
So I'm going to sing to you.
The mantra.
And then you're going to sing it back to me and we will dance like that over and over again.
So you'll hear the words and then you'll sing them back.
So really just taking a moment to sit up nice and tall so the energy can flow through your spine.
Taking a deep breath in.
And exhale,
Just sigh out your day,
Whatever's been going on.
Inhale,
Fill your belly like a balloon.
Ganesha has a big belly,
So find your Ganesha belly.
And then exhale,
Sigh it out with a ha.
Just feeling your sound massaging your organs,
Your inner environment.
Inhale.
And again,
Just feel the sound move through the body like a breeze.
You And so too,
When you sing,
I invite you to feel the sound,
Let go of how you sound and just feel the sound in your body.
I'll sing to you,
You sing back to me.

Satsang with Mooji song.
And just take a moment to rest into the energy that you feel now inside of your body.
Perhaps feeling an aliveness.
Dancing in every cell of your being.
Maybe a sense of sweetness,
Of joy,
Or even of bliss if that's up to Chint Ananda.
And then just take a moment.
To imagine,
To feel,
To see,
To sense yourself living.
In the success,
In the fulfillment of this path,
Whatever that is to you,
For you right now.
See yourself having moved through this evolutionary edge,
This challenge that you've been facing.
See yourself happy,
Healthy,
Radiant.
Fulfill.
Where would you be?
Who would you be with?
And most importantly,
How would you feel?
In this state of fulfillment.
Let that feeling grow stronger and brighter.
Seeing,
Feeling,
And sensing.
Yourself in the most bright,
Successful,
Vibrant radiance.
Joyful.
Healthy aspect and version you could possibly imagine.
Beautiful,
And just rest into that energy,
That vibration for a moment.
Bringing palms of hands to place on your heart space.
And just sensing this energy of Ganesha holding you,
Supporting you,
Guiding you.
From this moment forward,
Always.
In your highest path.
I is destiny.
Mmm,
Big breath in.
And so it is.
Thank you so much for joining me.
And feel free to come back to this mantra over and over again.
And just play with it,
Have fun with it.
So much love.
Namaste.
