Guest guest Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Sat Nam, Does anyone know the time period to take to work up from 11 minutes to 31 minutes doing Ra Ma Da Sa, Sa Say Sohung? I completed a 40 day sadhana of it at 11 minutes. After 40 days I continued, increasing by 1 minute each day, I am now at 23 minutes. I just read in 'Yoga for Health and Healing' that one should take years to work up to 31mins. This seems like a long time. Many thanks, Krishan Shiva Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can work up, but you don't have to with this mantra. > I completed a 40 day sadhana of it at 11 minutes. After 40 days I > continued, increasing by 1 minute each day, I am now at 23 minutes. * Just 8 more days. Since you have started like this you might wish to continue. > > I just read in 'Yoga for Health and Healing' that one should take years to > work up to 31mins. This seems like a long time. I have never heard this. Just do it and enjoy the experience. You are making the mantra your friend. Blessings, Gururattana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Sat Nam Lynn, The way Ra Ma Da Sa was taught to me was the only way it was taught up until about 8 years ago. I actually have a recording of Yogiji teaching that class and can upload it when I get home. Until then check out the songful version by Hari Bhajan Kaur. It is most like the traditional healing version go/start.cgi/store/shop.html?showprod=CD13002 Do it on one breath, with a suspenseful space between the Ra Ma Da Sa and the Sa Say Sohung. This challenges and draws on the Pranic force. With Ra Ma Da Sa we evoke the healing energy of Guru Ram Das and with Sa Say Sohung we fully identify with and surrender to it, and so doing, make ourselves a tool for healing. Do it rambunctiously. The other version can be meditated to also, but I prefer to use them in passive ways.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 Sat Nam Craig, Thanks for the reminder. Sometimes life become a blurr. Here is the link http://www.church-mouse.com/Ra-Ma-Da-Sa.mp3 As I listen to this it becomes apparent this is not the earliest version as I had thought. More on this later.......I'm cooked.
