In this mantra meditation, we use the mantra "Here I Am" for opening and balancing the first (root) chakra, for creating a stable and strong presence and for creating a feeling of a solid foundation. Only when we can really stand on our own feet, feeling powerful and capable of facing all of life's challenges, we can live life without fear and attachment. This meditation will empower you and create a sense of solidity and at the same time an airy kind of presence.

Transcript

In this morning meditation we are going to work with a mantra.

This mantra appeared already in the Old Testament,

In the Bible.

Here I am.

So first of all we will close our eyes.

And let the mantra resonate not mechanically,

But as if it springs from the depths of us.

For that we will focus on the deep space within our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depth.

Slowly emerging until it surfaces and reaches our conscious mind and body.

It starts as a whisper,

Here I am.

And as soon as it reaches our surface mind and being,

Or just let it resonate and work within us just as it wills.

So we will start.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

Let the mantra gather and unify all your being from head to toe.

As if it is spoken not just by the mind,

But by the body as a whole,

Reaching even the fingertips,

The toes.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

And feel how this mantra begins to appear from the depths of our body and mind.

Let this be your only thought,

Only feeling.

Let this be your only thought,

Only feeling.

And now we'll synchronize the mantra,

Here I Am,

With the in-breath.

Whenever we let the in-breath happen,

Whenever air enters,

We follow it with the mantra.

The out-breath happens by itself as a by-product.

We only put our intention and weave the mantra into the in-breath.

The in-breath belongs to the world of doing,

To the world of action.

It's for the law of action,

It's not for our our trophies.

You You You Think of it like this whenever life brings into your nostrils Life force you respond here I am You You You You Slowly let the mantra be activated in you until it becomes your own statement Your own declaration You You You And now We'll stand Rise to a feet standing Feel our feet deeply rooted in the ground If we need we can imagine how they are so deeply rooted that they reached the center of the earth You We'll make sure that our chest is proudly open by folding back the shoulders Straightening the head as if it is connected to the ceiling And relaxing all of the body on the legs You You You You You You You You You You You You You Let the mantra reach all the way to our feet You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You And letting the mantra Be our response to the upper worlds And fold back our hands to meet at the center of the chest At the two palms Attach And for the last time let the mantra Here I am Here I am Flow from head to toe You You You You You You You You You You Slowly we can open our eyes And come out to the world To the plane of here I am
