I read the introduction to the mantra several times and closed my eyes. I first listened to and then sang the mantra. I felt the mantra resounding in my heart. With each repetition, my mind calmed down a little more.

At the end of the chant, I felt lightness of heart and clarity of mind; the mantra had transformed my state. I had experienced its power.

I am deeply grateful to Gurumayi for giving me the mantra.

This powerful raga is so deep, intense, and beautiful. I feel that it is cleansing and healing me, and it makes me feel strong. While chanting, I had a vision of myself sitting in Baba’s Samadhi Shrine in Gurudev Siddha Peeth. What great blessings!

With the first sound of Gurumayi chanting the mantra I felt a sense of opening in my chest and tingling in my body. Soon I felt very expanded. Living in this expanded experience all the time is something I want to be able to do.

I am looking forward to celebrating Mahashivaratri by chanting Om Namah Shivaya in the Bhairavi raga. It is a special raga for me because as I chant the deep sounds, I so quickly connect to and experience my own Self.
