Om! The Gayatri Mantra! Atman Nityananda

The Gayatri Mantra

Gayatri is the Divine power which transforms man into a divine being and endows him with the brilliant light of supreme spiritual enlightenment. Whatever one's favourite Deity is, regular repetition of a few Mala (rosary of 108 beads) of Gayatri Mantra daily will give one immeasurable benefits and blessings. Its purifying power is immense. It eradicates all sins. It gives wonderful health, beauty, strength, vigour, well-being and magnetic aura to the person. It eliminates ignorance and makes man strong and of supreme intelligence. Its repetition ultimately leads to the realization of Universal Consciousness (Advaita Brahman) as a unity.

It is suitable for the whole world as it is a sincere prayer for light addressed to the Almighty Supreme Spirit.The nature of the Gayatri mantra is such that you can repeat it as you meditate on whatever form of God you like. 

Gayatri is the most prominent of all the mantras because the deity to whom it refers is none other than Parabrahman himself. But many repeating the mantra meditate on Goddess Gayatri with the five faces. Every word, every letter of the Gayatri carries upon it the supreme Vedic concept of the absolute supreme truth.

Hairakan Babaji had instructed his disciples to learn the Gayatri mantra, which is included in the Arti worship ritual that disciples perform to Babaji morning and evening in the Hairakan Temple.

Om- bhur bhuvah svah-

Tat savitur varenyam-

Bhargo devasya dheemahi.

Dhiyo yo nah prachodayaat-

Om- bhur bhuvah swaha-

Tat savitur varenyam-

Bhargo devasya dhimahi...

Dhiyo yonah brachodayat-

As we pronounce it there is a slight pause at the places where hyphens have been placed

Meaning: "Let us meditate on the Creator (God) and His Glory, Who created the universe, who is fit to be worshipped, who eliminates ignorance and all sins. May He enlighten our intellects."

Note:There are several different versions of rendering the meaning of the mantra with minor differences not essential because the words contained in the mantra can be rendered with more than one meaning.

Find a quiet place or sit in the meditation room if you have one, or outside in nature just before sunrise. Sit in your asana and mentally repeat the mantra as many times as you can, but no less than 108 times, and feel steadily that you are receiving light, purification, and wisdom. Those who do not have the time can repeat the mantra three times at least, at sunrise at noon and at sunset. Finally one could repeat it while lying down, walking, sitting, etc.

Om! Best recipe for success is doing the uncomfortable job! ~ Atman Nityananda

 

Best recipe for success is doing the uncomfortable job!

The ego naturally lives in resistance and avoids doing what makes it feel boring, unpleasant, uncomfortable or threatening, even if it is beneficial to our health, well-being, peace, freedom and happiness.

The ego especially resists doing anything that is not enjoyable or requires regularity, such as morning and evening meditation.

So accept it and ignore the ego's discomfort and resistance. Just do the uncomfortable job and enjoy the results.

Also, to free yourself from these negative emotional tendencies investigate and dissolve them through prayer, God's name, EFT, Spiritual Code, Bach remedies, positive affirmations and visualizations, dissolution at 49 subconscious levels.

Om! The Spirituality in essence! - Atman Nityananda

 The Spirituality in essence!

Spirituality is to live in peace, freedom, freedom, wholeness and happiness in conscious union with Being and unity with all and everything.

Plenitude, freedom, peace and bliss is a matter of high vibration and consciousness.

High vibration is acquired by externally contacting and feeding on high vibrations at all levels of our being (physical, energetic, sensory, emotional, emotional, mental, intellectual). 

At the same time, avoiding or neutralizing low vibrations when we come in contact with them and cleansing them. 

Cultivate and develop high vibrations internally through a variety of exercises and conscious contact with our inner Being.

And at the same time avoid cultivating low vibrations and eliminate the causes (egoic tendencies) that cause them.

Consciousness is developed and awakened by ceasing to identify with what we are not and living in conscious contact with our inner Being. A deep, stable connection with Being is the most effective means of raising our vibration.

The repetition of God's name through a mantra is the most effective way to keep our attention and mind on the silent  space of the divine essence within us.
