Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Complete Adi Mantra The complete individual form of the mantra immerses you in awareness and guidance for your personal situation. It establishes a guiding beam between you in your immediate state and your higher consciousness that is true through all states. It is very useful if you are entering Shakti Pad in Kundalini Yoga. It is also excellent as a means to gain perspective and direction. Yogi Bhajan explained this when he said, "Use this mantra in its complete form anytime you have a lack of faith or any similar thing: Many of you will enter Shakti Pad, or you are in it, this mantra will help: With the grace of Guru Ram Das, when this mantra is chanted five times on one breath, the total spiritual knowledge of all teachers who have ever existed or who will ever exist on this earth is beseated in that person." HOW TO RECITE: Sit in an easy pose with your spine erect. Bring both palms in front of the heart center of the chest facing upward. Touch the sides of the palms along the little fingers and sides of the hands, as if you will receive something in them. Form Gian mudra in each hand by gently touching the tip of the first finger to the tip of the thumb. Focus your eyes on the tip of the nose. Inhale deeply and chant the words as you exhale. Chant the entire mantra three to five times on one breath. Keep the number of repetitions per breath constant. The sound Dev is chanted a minor third higher than the other sounds. The sound of devaa carries slightly on the 'aa' sound.
