Welcome to this practice,
Mantra Sound Yoga.
I'm on the California coastline,
Palos Verdes.
You can see the Catalina Island in the distance.
And it's a wonderful opportunity to connect with the energy of nature.
The Sanskrit sounds.
Are said to have been heard by the ancient ones,
The rishis and the sages,
In deep meditation as they connected and heard the sounds of nature.
That these sounds are an energetic language that connects us with cosmic frequencies.
Today's mantra.
Om Namo Narayani.
Om.
Pulse the creative primordial sound of the universe.
L'amour,
A term of reverence.
Of surrender,
Of honor.
Narayani.
The energy of courage,
Of auspiciousness,
Of all good things,
Of wisdom.
Referred to as.
The combination of the energies of Durga,
Lakshmi and Saraswati.
A little nuance.
As we approach this mantra,
The first N in Narayani and the first end in Namo.
No more.
There is only one end.
Nimble.
Are hitting the spot behind the top front teeth,
Just on the fleshy part of the palate.
We're aiming to activate that energy point.
For more of the connection with the specific frequency in those sounds.
There are some other nuances in Narayani that Last N is in a different position,
But let's focus.
Just on hitting this dental spot as a way to start to attune to more of the Sanskrit nuances and the power in the sound.
It means that I surrender to the.
.
.
Divine flow of the feminine force of creation.
Protect me and guide me and attune me to the grace.
Letting yourself tune in to the sound.
It's a deep listening practice,
As much as it is a practice for Producing.
The resonance within your body of sound,
Your instrument.
Listening Inward.
Adjusting your posture so that you can bring more relaxation and openness to your body instrument.
My intention when I approach this practice is that the sound is emerging from.
.
.
Within my heart connection,
Even though I'm not.
Vocally producing the sound with specific mouth placements.
I want to engage the heart.
Breath in.
Um.
.
.
Namo Narayani.
Om.
Namo Narayani.
Home.
Namo Narayani.
Sing your love.
You on you Two more.
Om Namo Narayanaya.
Stay in your connection.
Stay with the energy that you've generated.
Breathe it through every cell.
Imagine that.
A field of goodness surrounding you.
Traveling through all of the lines of connection.
Through your life.
Your homes,
Your workplaces,
Your communities,
Your loved ones.
The challenging people.
May all of that be transformed.
More love,
More graciousness.
Or wisdom.
Auspiciousness and strength.
Om Namo Narayani.
