This is guided meditation in which you just have to listen and follow the meaning of the words.

Here there is nothing to be done,

Nothing to be achieved,

Nothing to be accomplished.

This meditation is simply to be myself as I am.

This is an appointment with myself.

I am so busy with various occupations and engagements and activities that I generally do not have an opportunity to be with myself,

To get acquainted with myself.

I am not what I take myself to be.

I think that I am a limited,

Helpless,

Helpless creature.

I think that I am a needy person.

I am a restless person.

I am an agitated person.

Sometimes I am an angry person.

I am a success.

I am a failure.

All these various conclusions I have about myself,

But that is not the truth about myself.

In reality,

I am a very lovable person.

I am a good,

Kind,

Lovable person.

A good,

Kind,

Beautiful person.

That is the core person I am.

To get acquainted with that person,

To get acquainted with truly what I am,

That is the purpose of this meditation.

Here,

I am not seeking anything.

I am not seeking a new experience.

I am not seeking a new sensation.

I am just seeking to be myself.

And therefore,

I am relaxed.

Nothing to achieve.

Nothing to accomplish.

Nothing to prove.

Nothing to hide.

Nothing to pretend.

Nothing to show off.

I am with myself.

There is no need to have any masks.

Just a simple person that I am.

When my mind is free from anxieties to achieve something,

Free from anxiety to accomplish,

To prove,

When the mind is free from all this agenda,

Then the mind is quiet.

Just drop all the agenda.

Nothing to prove.

Nothing to accomplish.

Just to be a simple person that I am.

When the mind is relaxed,

Then it is silent.

I am a relaxed,

Silent person.

A relaxed,

Silent,

Simple person I am.

When I am not seeking anybody's approval.

When I am not trying to prove myself to anyone.

I find myself a relaxed,

Simple,

Silent,

Conscious person.

The mind is silent.

I am also silent.

All agitations are superfluous.

Just as there are many waves and lot of disturbance on the surface of the ocean,

But in the depth of the ocean there is profound silence.

So also,

There are many agitations on the surface of my mind,

But in the depth of my mind there is profound silence.

There's silence,

Contentment,

Joy is the true nature of myself.

Enjoy the silence that you are when you listen to this chanting.

Just listen without any attempt to repeat.

Do not repeat.

Do not wait for the next word.

Just listen in the present.

Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Do not repeat while listening.

Enjoy the silence that you are.

When the mind is relaxed,

Free from anxieties,

It is silent.

Then you can see yourself also as a silent,

Conscious person.

Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Ram Sri Ram Jai Ram Nothing to be done.

Nothing to be achieved.

Because I already am what I want to be.

That is to be discovered.

That I already am.

The happy,

Silent person that I want to be.

I already am.

I am silent even when the mind is thinking.

I am silent even when these words are heard.

I am silent even when there are noises outside.

I am silent not opposed to sound.

Not opposed to thoughts.

Not opposed to anything.
