Simple Meditation(s)

Remaining silent is meditation

Meditation is an experience that no body can teach you. Neither can we go to deep into meditation suddenly as it’s a practice and a habit that is formed over a period of time.

Meditation means, to remain silent. Though, thoughts keep appearing. If any thought is present then it’s not meditation.

How to remain thoughtless? How to remain silent in spite of thoughts? Mind can cling to picture or a mantra.

Do we have a mantra for silence? There is no mantra for silence.

However, there is a technique to create silence.

The technique is as follows…

• When a thought comes don’t resist it. Say inside you, ‘this is my thought’. Thus, you disassociate yourself from the thought.
• Then ask the question to yourself, ‘Can I let go this thought?’ It will go. You can also say “release”. Then it will go. Now there will be at least a one second gap between two thoughts. This is equivalent to one hour of meditation. In general, we never have a gap between thoughts as we might have ten thoughts in one second.
• If you do not want the “let go” step, then form your own mantra or word. When we say that mantra, we create a gap between the thoughts.
• When a thought comes, interrupt it with the mantra and you will become silent. When another thought comes, say the mantra once again.

The silence thus formed in between chanting the mantra is meditation.

Pranic and physical bodies has to be in coordination

Our pranic body and physical body have to be in coordination. Otherwise, we can’t meditate.

If we regulate our breathing pattern or do pranayama then they will be in coordination. This is because both breathing and prana have the same origin. When breathing is regulated, prana is regulated too.

Pranic body has to be clear of impurities

When the pranic body is clean, then the meditation can be done successfully.

Why so much impurities in the Pranic field?  It’s due to the mind. Our own sadness and worries create these impurities.

With the help of pranayama, one can clear these impurities.

How to acquire a good breathing pattern?

• When you meditate, place the index finger at the base of the thumb on both the hands. Breathing will get deeper and you could meditate properly, as shallow breathing spoils the meditation.
• Don’t take the index finger straight away move your finger to the base of the thumb. First touch the tip of thumb with the index finger. Then after some time, move the index finger to the middle of the thumb, and finally to the base of the thumb.
• Don’t do it mechanically. Feel the breath with a conscious awareness.
• Observing your breathing is also a good way to meditate. This is part of meditation known as Vipasana meditation.

Do the space meditation now

• After learning to breathe well, do the space meditation.
• Be aware of the space between the chair you are sitting and the wall in front of you. Don’t look at the wall. Instead look at the space between you and the wall.
• This is known as ‘Space Meditation’.
• Keep the eyes open throughout.

Bach Flower Remedies as Aids to Meditation

• The Bach flower remedy WHITE CHESTNUT helps to remove our thoughts
• CHESTNUT BUD not to have any distractions
• WILLOW if you think one person or the other is bothering you

Chanting mantra during meditation

It’s nature of our mind to cling to something. You can choose a mantra to do that. After sometime you should be able to say goodbye to it. Mantra by itself is not divine.

Chanting means constantly thinking about a word, which is a mantra. Ultimately that also should go.

When it will go? We don’t know. May be, it’s not in this Janma.

Vandana

Could you please give me mantra or switch words so I could sleep at 10 pm and get up at 6 am. If I go to bed early then also I can’t sleep. I just waste time on bed for 3 to 4 hours. I am sleeping at 2 or 3 pm and getting up at 11 am.

Naran

While in the bed, chant the mantra RAMA 63 times.

Counting is very important. You should do not do less than 63 or more than 63.

Naran 

Ask your father to do eye exercise given in some yoga centres.

Ask him to chant “LALITHAM LAMBODHARAM LALITHAM BASKARAM LALITHAM BALACHANDRAM” daily as many times as possible.

Mahesh (after three months)

Thanks for the mantra. My father’s eyesight is showing some improvement though little.

Should he take some Bach flower remedies (like say Mustard etc) as well for speedy recovery?

Naran

He can take EYE TONE pills available with the centre, which can make some more improvement. It is a combination of flower and gem remedies.

I have no regrets in my life

Guru Mangala

Since my return in Feb (called back) my brother-in-law was critical with Prostate cancer which was galloping, I have been constantly in touch with Balakumar.  I wish to bring to others a few more positive healings.   

My brother-in-law Capt Sundaresan was dying in Coimbatore of prostate cancer. He was in a hospice and waiting for death. He was 79 years old.  The whole family was in a depression because he was everybody’s favorite person and they could not bear to see him suffer like this.  The indefinite waiting was agony for him and others.

I asked Naran for help. He asked us to chant the mantra “KUNCHITA PAADAM SHARANAM” and then “KAALAM NAMAMYAHAM” placed under his pillow and I gave WALNUT too.

For the family in waiting I added (Bach Flower Remedy) WALNUT and RED CHESTNUT (concern for the patient) along with RESCUE REMEDY (a difficult situation to handle) to the drinking water.

What was very surprising to the hospice staff is that in spite of the cancer spreading to all organs and mouth, why was he not in pain? They never gave any palliative, only care.  Everyone said, “He is not in pain because it is the good Karma he accumulated through the selfless life he has leaded.  He took so many people’s pain away and so their gratitude is helping him stay without pain”. No DOUBT.

 But in my mind I was sure it is the Chants, The flowers and the constant affirmations, which we were guided by Balakumar, added to the Good Karma. 

Capt died peacefully on March 10th, listening to MS Subbulakshmi‘s song “Kuraionrum Illai” (there are no more regrets for me) and as my sister-in-law was chanting the Gayatri mantra.

Thanks to Naran for this healing.

Remove My Angry Instinct

Anger Eraser Part II

Please refer this link to read the first article in the series – “Resentment Created an Accident – Anger Eraser Part I”: http://wp.me/ptUDl-6n

Anger about others will hurt us

I had been taking the Bach Flower Remedy WILLOW and sometimes PINE too.

Why Pine? The anger that we have about those outside us, one day will turn inside. This can create accidents – major or minor, and pains – in the form of stomach pain or head ache. Pain means Pine.

Just to give you an example. All of us would have gone through the episode of hurting our own fingers or toes, when we are angry about somebody at office or home.

Mantra for forgiveness

I did forgiveness exercise too (“I Ram forgive you Suresh. Please forgive me and release me’). That did help me to remove the anger whenever I get.

One day I asked Naran, if he could give me a mantra to forgive easily and effortlessly. He said he will think and get back to me.

Meanwhile, I was chanting mantras of Naran and one day I found that the Sreeram mantra helped me to erase anger or deep resentment.

I would say that this mantra removes our angry instinct.

When I shared this with Naran, he said, this mantra does helps us a lot, as it removes our animal instincts.

Why we need to remove animal instincts?

Of course Darwin said that our ancestors are apes. Thus, we carry their instincts with them. It means that their DNA is still inside us and influencing us in some way.

The only way we could erase this instinct from us is the Sree Ram mantra, which goes like this, “SREERAM JAYA RAM JAYA JAYA RAM”.

Unshaken by earthquakes

R Mohan

Thrice, I was unmoved

A year back, I was working late night (I am lazy, but sometimes I do work:)

Around 1.30 AM, I heard voices outside my flat. I found my neighbors were standing outside the apartment complex. When I enquired for the reasons, they wondered how come I didn’t feel the earth quake.

I didn’t wonder.  Why?

Yesterday (11-4-2012), I was having lunch in a hotel. I heard the table shaking a tiny bit. I thought it might be due to my restless legs hitting against the table. None of the people eating alongside me felt anything, while in the neighborhood everybody felt it.

When I went out, I saw several people were standing in the road. The hotel owner ran up to me and whispered in my ears that there were earth tremors around the city. We didn’t have anything in the hotel.

In the late afternoon, while I was watching TV, I saw again my neighbors coming out of the apartment. They were once again surprised.

I didn’t wonder. Why?

I was chanting the mantra for protection

I was listening to ‘OM HOWM VUM JOOM SAHA’ CD (running time is 3 minutes) for the last two years, based on Naran’s suggestion that this mantra has the capacity to shake away the earth quacks and any natural calamities.

Bach Flower Remedies for Divine Grace

For those who are not comfortable pronouncing this mantra, he suggests to keep in every residence the Bach Flower Remedies:

• STAR OF BETHLEHEM: shock-absorber and
• ROCK ROSE (what happens when you panic? You shake. It is a sudden loss of control. Earthquake is nothing but the earth-shaking): to restore control.
• SWEET CHESTNUT: to have Divine grace. The Divine grace is nothing but the infinite flow of Divine love. Where there is flow of love one is always under the constant protection of the Divine from any calamities.

While others were shaking with fear, she was on a lifting mood

Malini took the Bach Flower remedy SWEET CHESTNUT just a few minutes before the first tremor in Chennai. Her boss asked her to go out and get him something from the local shop. While she was buying the stuff outside, the tremor was felt. People working in her building came out of it, fearing some calamity. Without realizing the issue, she happily went back to her office, using the lift.

Why not join me to shake your cords (Divine Links) a little bit in the upcoming NARAN’S workshop on  ‘Strengthening Your Relationship Cords’  on April 21^st from 10 AM TO 1 PM (participant fees Rs.500/-).

It will improve every aspect of our life, including avoiding earth quakes, for the exercise on cords strengthening ends with forming a strong bond between us and the Mother Earth.

My Husband is a Great Fault-Finder

Mrs. P

I have the following problems in my life

1.  Recently got married and my husband don’t trust me. He suspects me for everything
2.  He keeps remembering the past mistakes and scolds and keeps on telling that always and fights with me
3.  If we go out he feels that I look at other guys and not at him and because of this he doesn’t come out with me anywhere. Now because of all these He has started making new friends who are girls and started talking to them.
4. Earlier he used to share everything with me. Now he doesn’t even talk to me properly.
5. For everything he misunderstands.
6. He doesn’t allow me to talk to my earlier friend and some of my cousins who are guys
7. He does even allow me to wear modern dresses

 Can you please resolve this problem and somehow save my marriage and get me my love back. Can you please make him understand me, share with me everything and be with me always? Can you please make him somehow to forget the past things, lead a new life with me and be jovial with me? Please bring back the attachment within him.

 Along with the remedies can you also give me some Bach flower names which I can chant daily and resolve this.
