Guest guest Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sat Nam, These two mantras provide a divine shield over the crown chakra and all around you. Yogi Bhajan described the imagery of chanting " Ong, Namo, Guru Dev, Namo " as four waves of protective energy from side to side above the head. On " Ad Guray Namey " protective energy (of Guru Nanak) is waved front to back along your right side; on " Jugad Guray Namey " from side to side behind you (Guru Angad); on " Sat Guray Namey " from back to front along the left side (Guru Amar Das); and on " Siri Guru Devay Namey " Guru Ram Das's divine protective energy is swept from left to right in front of you. The two mantras create a far-reaching sublime cozy space for spiritual endeavors.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Sat Nam, While working on my memoirs this morning I came across a folder of preparatory meditations for healers that I put together in the eighties. It includes the Ad Guray Namey mantra. Unfortunately there is no mention of the date this teaching was given, but here it is word for word: " Chant (this mantra) from the navel. Create a shield around all four sides with each " Nameh " . It gives the power of knowledge of the past, present and future. It gives clarity of mind, which brings compassion, which brings God-like actions, which brings the resident capacity of God in you. The Creator of the temple becomes resident in it. The walls of ignorance fall away. " All good reasons to chant it! Loving Blessings, Guru Prem Kaur Memoirs of a Yogini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 The two mantras are separate in practice and in application, and should not run into one another, if one even chooses to do both. It's totally optional. In my practice I take a few moments before chanting "Ad Gurey Namey" and often at a slightly different tone and meter.

I have always felt the power of it, and encouraged the same faith in many, but it is great to hear a little of the science behind it. My mum has never practiced Kundalini, but believed in it so much that she won't drive her car until she has chanted it out loud from behind the steering wheel (in her own melody) 3 times before starting up the engine. Both she and I swear by it. Sometimes in an Aquarian type way, it is the experience that is as important as the explanation.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 The focus of my post was to know if chanting Ad Gurey Namey Aftre Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo was taught by YB or "invented" by some of this students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if Yogi Bhajan taught it or if the students added it themselves, but when I asked him about it, he said chanting Ad Guray Nameh after Ong Namo was optional, not required. Please note that Nameh does NOT rhyme with may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Sat Nam! It was taught (and practiced by) Yogi Bhajan but never required for teaching a yoga class. " Aad Gurey Namey... " can be chanted after " Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo, " after other mantras (e.g., Tud aagay aardas.... " ) or alone by itself. It was not " invented " by any student. ......G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Sat Nam, It is not required to chant " Aad guray nameh " after " Ong Namo... " when tuning in for a class. but there is nothing wrong with doing it either. (At some point at Women's Camp this question was asked and answered - and could probably be found as a direct quote by anyone who searched that archive.)
