Mantra Meditation
Mantras are “words of power”. The word “mantra” is Sanskrit and may be translated as the “thoughts that liberate from samsara (the world of illusion)”. Examples of Mantras are “Om”, “Om Mani Padme Hung”, etc. Mantras are listened to or recited aloud or silently by a practitioner for many different purposes; as a means of achieving different states of consciousness, to create resonance with specific attributes of divine energy, and to manifest different qualities, from resonating the chakras to embodying compassion. Chanted with sincerity and devotion, mantras can guide the meditator into a deep state of meditation to be in touch with the source of all creation, providing a bridge between the spiritual and physical dimension and opening the way for inspirational contact with higher realms and beings.
In this session, Hwee San will guide you to choose a mantra that you have special affinity with. Together in a group, we will do a Mantra Meditation, chanting our mantra silently in our hearts, and achieving the benefits of such a meditation.
We look forward to your loving presence.
