The Mantra of Unfolding

 

 

"Sounds are vibrations. They give rise to definite forms. Each sound produces a form in the indivisible world, and combinations of sound create complicated shapes. Repetition of a Mantra has a mysterious power of bringing about the manifestation of the Divinity, just as the splitting of an atom manifests the tremendous forces latent in it."
(Sri Swami Sivananda)

 

     

The Mantra of Unfolding

 

Hari AUM

Greetings and Salutations - Peace to All.

I rarely deviate from the Teachings of my Lineage but I have been granted the authority to augment such Teachings as I feel appropriate for the changing times. And so tonight, on this Old Year's Eve I will make use of this freedom and share with you what I have termed "The Mantra of Unfolding", something that I have found carries within it great significance and an auspiciousness of great weight for practitioners thereof.

I find myself speaking about mantra quite often. Many, if not most people are not really ready for what they believe to be the life of a yogi, yet their beings cry out for some sort of release from the experience of stagnation and repetitiveness of everyday mundane life. For those people, for me, for you, for many, when all else proves ineffective, there is mantra, although the domain itself is fraught with exotic, incorrect ideas. For this reason, and as amelioration to this reality, the following…

Just as with Sanskrit, some words in the English language lend themselves just as well to peace and a change in one's immediate experience of consciousness (which is really what is sought by the spiritually destitute ones) and provide the springboard from which to commence a 'new' life.

One such word is "unfolding".

Now, for those who are so inclined and who can recognize that the path to peace is really very simple (it is), and if you can tap into the very feeling and experience accompanying your repeating of the word "unfolding" for nine minutes every day, then very soon if not immediately you will notice a change in your consciousness, which, if you can stay with and develop with intent will change your life for the better.

Such is the simple teaching passed on with my greatest kindness and my most gentle of thoughts to those who can find use for it on this auspicious Eve.

Namaste.
