Mantras are the formulas that alter the patterns of the mind and the chemistry of the brain, according to physical and metaphysical laws. The power of a mantra is in it sound vibration. The mantras used in Kundalini Yoga elevate or modify consciousness through their meaning and rhythmical repetition. It is beneficial to link a mantra to the breath.
1. Adi Mantra
The Adi Mantra is a meditative link between you as a finite personality and you as a flow of the Infinite consciousness that guides the Kundalini energy. We always start a class or a personal practice by chanting this mantra aloud. We chant instead of singing, as the technology of chanting the Adi Mantra zeros the ego. Practice this mantra to become a master of the ability to put aside your own fears, pride, expectations, and manipulations. Let the link of consciousness touch you and teach you through.
Translation of Adi Mantra: I bow to the Creative Wisdom, I bow to the Divine Teacher within
“Anytime you want to manifest a link with spirituality. Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo is the link. You know how when you enter a parking lot, and you cross a line and pull the ticket out? That is this mantra. You manifest infinity through the Grace of Guru Ram Das when you chant this mantra. The guardian of the Aquarian Age is Guru Ram Das. When you have lack of faith or a similar thing, you can chant this mantra.
Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo is a call. It is the voucher of the Divine Shakti, the kundalini.
Ad Guray Nameh, Jugad Guray Nameh, Sat Guray Nameh, Siri Guru Devay Nameh is the manifestation of Shakti, may be chanted after the Adi Mantra.”
