Meditation for the Positive Mind

Kundalini Yoga Meditation Practice for 2010

 

The numerology of 2010 suggests it is time to train the positive mind (see article by Shiv Charan Singh) . This meditation was taught by Yogi Bhajan for just that purpose !

 

This practice opens the heart center and the feelings of the positive self. lt is a gesture of happiness. It has a great history and is said to have been practiced by many great and wise spiritual leaders including Buddha and Christ. The hand mudra became a symbol for blessing and prosperity.


Tune in with the mantra Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo (3 times)

 

Sit with an erect spine. Curl the ring finger and little finger into each palm. Bend the thumbs over top of them to lock them into
place. Keep the first two fingers straight.

 

Bring the arms so the elbows are by the sides, and the hands are by the shoulders with the two fingers of each hand pointing straight up. Bring the forearms and hands forward to an angle of 30 degrees from the vertical. Press the shoulders and elbows back firmly but comfortably.


The palms face fonuard. Close the eyelids. Roll the eyes up gently and concentrate at the brow point - the Third Eye area - at the top of the nose where the eye brows would meet.

 

Create a steady, slow, deep, and complete breath.


Mentally pulse rhythmically from the brow point out to lnfinity the sounds:

Saa Taa Naa Maa

Saa is Infinity. Taa is Life. Naa is Death. Maa is Rebirth/lTransformation. This describes the cycle of life. This kriya brings a total mental balance to the psyche. The entire mantra means, "l meditate on Truth, Truth that I am."

Try it for 40 days. During that time eat lightly and speak only truth directly from your heart.

 

Practice for ll to 62 minutes.

To end the meditation, inhale deeply and exhale three times. Then open and close the fists several times. Relax

 

Tune out with the mantra Sat Nam (3 times)
