| 1. |
Relax and
sit erect, but be comfortable. Do not tire yourself unnecessarily
to get into a straight ramrod erect posture. It will come automatically
as you practice meditation. |
| 2. |
Choose between
the 2 specific planets that you have to harmonize for the day, |
| 3. |
Choose to
meditate online or follow the instructions to download the Mantra
with its music to meditate offline. |
| 4. |
When you
start your session, concentrate on the image as it appears on the
screen. |
| 5. |
Start a simple
breathing exercise like you would in a gym during your workout. |
| a) |
Inhale through
one nostril by keeping the other nostril closed with your fingers
while OM is being chanted. That will be in the first part of the seed
Mantra. |
| b) |
Hold your
breath till the second part of the seed Mantra starts. |
| c) |
Exhale through
the opposite nostril as the second part of the seed Mantra gets chanted. |
| d) |
Repeat this
whole cycle of breathing exercise 4 to 5 times synchronizing with
the Mantra as explained in the previous steps. This will complete
the breathing exercise, which is called Pranayam. You are now in a
perfect mental state to concentrate and to continue your meditation. |
| e) |
Just concentrate
now on the image and continue your normal breathing. |
| 6. |
Try to completely
shut yourself from all external worries and thoughts. However, thoughts
will come initially--both good and bad ones-however, this is very
natural. Do not make any special efforts to drive away thoughts away,
but just concentrate on the image, and chant the mantra within your
own mind and try to synchronize your own chant with our Mantra as
it is being chanted. |
| 7. |
Thoughts
will come and go, and as your practice gets better, as will your concentration
and synchronization. The effectiveness of your meditation will increase
along with this progress. |
| 8. |
We recommend
that you practice this initially for a period of 15 minutes. As you
get more tuned, increase it to a period of 25 minutes. Those who already
practice meditation and are experienced at it should follow their
own methods to synchronize with the Mantra. |
