Introduction & Questions

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam:

Hi, I am new to the KY group and would like to introduce

myself. My name is Brenda and I live in PA. I have been reading

everyone's E-mails and learning as I go and have decided to jump in to

greet everyone and ask some questions. I have pulled info off of the

many websites and briefly reviewed the questions and answers about KY.

I have practiced silent meditation in the past and hatha

yoga and ordered a Sanskrit Mantra tape and found it very interesting

and useful. I have practiced mantras for abundance and protection in

the past.

I feel compelled to explore and practice the Sadhana and Mul

Mantras and believe there is healing in practicing these. I have now

been led to KY and the kriyas and mantras and am practicing the postures

and chanting. I have started with Sat Nam (the seed mantra) and also

have been chanting Sa Ta Na Ma Ra Ma Da Sa Sa Se So Hung. And I love

the soundtracks of the CD's offered on www.yogatech.com/index.html and

am planning on ordering as soon as I choose a favorite. I am leaning

towards Shanti (Snatum Kaur) and have had some astounding affects by

briefly listening to Triple Mantra exerpt by Gurunam - Joseph Michael

Levry.

I am challenged at times with pronouncing the mantras

correctly and was wondering if anyone knows of a website that provides

an example of the correct pronunciation/translation? For example: SAT,

I understand rhymes with Hot or Tom. And Nam rhymes with But or Mom vs.

Pam. Hrim = reem and Srim = scream. Could someone please tell me how

to pronounce "Bhee"?

I have come across a few Mudra meditations that I would like

to incorporate into my Sadhana and was wondering if anyone can offer up

a Mudra meditation and/or Mantra for releasing an ancient preverbal

pattern that is triggered when I am in certain situations? I have been

going round-about this for many years now and still feel like I have not

been able to breakthrough this. I think the underlying feelings are

shame, fear, panic, embarrassment, feeling powerless and wanting to

flee. It is the strangest thing to me, I could wrap this up by saying

that my behavior is unrealistic to the situation that is taking place.

I know better, but I feel unable to act any differently, these strange

feelings/behavior kicks in immediately. I am putting this out there and

would appreciate anyone's feedback or if you want to take it off-line,

please e-mail me personally at bsnyder.

Thank you all for being there,

Brenda

Sat Nam Everyone,

 

I am also new to the KY group, Natalie from Melbourne, Australia. Best

wishes to all from my end of the world.

 

Thanks Kartar for this meditation link, I have tried the meditation once and

found it quite powerful despite, I suspect not quite doing it properly.

Found it difficult to visualise/feel the sounds entering and leaving my head

and as described in the instructions ended up with a slight headache.

 

If anyone has any suggestions for making this process easier, I would love

to hear them!!

 

May the long time sun shine upon you,

 

Natalie
