Mahakatha's Meditation Mantras

After the last episode where we spoke about Healing

your own inner pain and suffering, I gotta ask the question.

How? And while I'm neither

a trained psychiatrist nor a spiritual

guru, there is something that I would like you

to try and tell me how it works for you. That is

what we'll dive into in today's episode. Along with

a beautiful mantra to go with that practice.

So Namaste and welcome to yet another

beautiful episode of the Mahakatha Meditation Mantras

podcast. I'm your host Preeti, and today,

I'm gonna give you a technique that I would love for you to

try and see if it helps you heal your

own inner pain and suffering. I

want you to picture this

endlessly large room

filled with the kind of ambiance that you love, with

a lot of natural light, with a lot of indoor

plants, and soothing colors, and

so quiet that you can hear the chirping of the birds from

outside. Such a safe, comfortable

place where you are seated alone.

And suddenly, there

is a knock on the door. This knocking sounds

a little impatient. Somebody really

wants you to open the door. And since

you feel perfectly safe in this environment, no

harm can come to you, you open the door. In

storms, this beautiful being

in tears, crying, and

perhaps complaining, heartbroken over

something. And this beautiful

being just cannot stop talking.

And all it wants you to do is sit there

and listen to it So this beautiful being

sits down in the only other chair that is

available in that room. It is right in front of you.

This being sits down and continues to cry.

And complain about something that

is hurting. And all you are doing

is listening, observing.

After a few moments, you notice that this

beautiful being, this poor little being has

calmed down a little bit. It is still complaining,

but it's not crying as loudly as it

was. Instead, it has made

itself more comfortable in that chair. Perhaps

leaning back or lying down. And now it

is speaking to you. More honestly,

More slowly, more calmly.

And still, all you are doing

is listening to this beautiful being.

Whenever it is asking you a question, whenever

it wants to hear something from you, When it

is pausing for your acknowledgment, you are

sincerely looking it in the eye and

saying, "I hear you, my dear. I

know how you feel." "It must be really

hard. Go on." And

you encourage it to empty its

heart out. To say all the things

that It carried into this beautiful room.

You allow this beautiful being to

express it all out. Without saying

a word. Once it quiets down?

You, maybe, feed it a nice cup

of tea. And soon, this beautiful

being says that it is time for it

to leave. It embraces

you and walks out the door.

And you are back to being in this beautiful

room, blissful, all by yourself.

This room is your mind,

dear listener. The beautiful being that came

storming in and disrupted the peace

and wanted to speak its heart out and cry its

heart out, was the pain,

the suffering, the emotion that suddenly

bubbled up in your mind. And when you

allowed it to come in, rather than refusing

to open the door. When you allowed it to come in,

to quiet down and offered

it just some compassion. The

emotion was soothed enough that it decided

to leave and even embraced you,

thanked you on its way out.

Now on some days, there will be no embrace. On

some days, this beautiful being will storm in and storm

out no matter how kind you are to it.

But on some days, it will calm down and

melt in minutes while you were

doing nothing but just showing up

and being present for it. And

there is one very important thing that I need you to

take away from this visualization.

You, in that room,

are separate from that beautiful troubled

being. You are never going to be

that being itself. You are

only going to be a host to it sometimes.

And a kind host to it, not a judgmental

host, not an impatient host.

Someone who will give it kind words. And

all the time, that it needs to heal.

What we just did through this exercise in the last few

minutes was we built you a place where you can

go through your mind. Whenever

you feel a painful emotion or memory or

trauma knocking at your door. And now I want you

to do something. Wherever you are seated right

now, I want you to touch the tips of your index

finger and thumb. Touch the tips

of your index finger and thumb. Doesn't

matter whether it's the right hand or the left hand, just bring

them together. This

now symbolizes the meeting of

you and that beautiful being.

Whenever you do this, it means

that it is time for you to go to that room

and for you to allow that beautiful being,

that painful emotion, to enter.

This bringing together of the tips of your

index finger and thumb is going to be the first

thing you do whenever you feel emotionally anxious.

And you will hold these fingers in

this manner until you feel that emotion

leaving your body. This

is a simple technique that I want you try in the coming

week and to keep your mind relaxed

and at ease through this exercise, I

have the perfect Mantra to accompany this practice - and that is the Adi Mantra.

The Adi Mantras is a

beautiful kundalini chant that focuses on

awakening your inner voice, on

awakening your inner guidance system.

Your inner counselor, if you

will. And that

is what makes this mantra perfect for listening

and meditating in this manner.

Anytime you feel the need to. Here are 2

of the most beautiful comments that this mantra has ever

received. The first one says, "This

mantra has broken down all the rules and regulations of

society and revealed the beautiful spirit

or person that we really are."

This is wonderfully put and exactly what

this mantra aims at awakening

within us. The

second one says, "Just beautiful and

so relaxing. Thank you, and thanks to the

universe for you and everyone that's helping

others reach out with such positivity." Thank

you so much dear listener. This comment really does mean

a lot to us, and we will continue bringing you

such uplifting content with the hope of helping

you lead a better life. If this

Sit down with this mantra. And without

setting a clock to this session with yourself

and visualize the scene between you and

your emotions as deeply as you

can. I want you to hear your emotion

out as kindly as you

can, as patiently as you can. Because without

your own kindness, and your own inner

guidance and your own patience, no power

in the world, no words of

wisdom from any guru can heal

your pain and suffering. And here I want to

say that this, of course, is not a substitute

to you seeking proper

counseling or proper professional help in

case you find it extremely difficult to deal with

your emotions and your trauma and your pain. In fact, this

exercise, if you do it right, will highlight

how helpful it can be to try

therapy, to try counseling if you've been through a

particularly difficult life. So

Let this be the first step if there hasn't been any

first step in this direction so far.

Allow yourself a few minutes to try this activity.

Listen to this mantra and let the healing

begin. Thank you so much for tuning into

today's episode. And I hope you're taking away something

valuable from it. I will be back again next

week with a brand new episode and Mantra. Until

then, keep healing yourself. And stay

blessed.
