Welcome back to chanting this ancient illuminating mantra together. Some of you have chanted with me before, some of you might have just completed the “Many Paths One Mountain” course by Love Serve Remember OR maybe you are completely new to chanting mantra. All fine. No experience required.

The Gayatri mantra might be one of this most widely practiced mantras by over time in India. This enduring practice supports clarity of mind and openness of heart.

We will be reciting this mantra in Veda method, not singing with music. This type of japa is a way to enter into a meditative stillness by employing sound, breath, and, voice.

"It is only the act of surrender, which allows us to use the energy contained in any shock or disappointment, that opens us to the truth. We go into shock when we are caught by surprise, or have revelations that we find difficult to accept. It is only by surrendering to the enormous energy that is within these experiences that we can rise above them. To be a professional in spiritual work means that we are able to draw in all energies that are working against us, so that we can transcend them and benefit from whatever the condition is we have attracted." —Rudi.

“There is nothing rational about spiritual work because spiritual work does not exist in its true form on the earth. Its nature is that of a lighter and more refined energy. It has a different density; it exists in a different world completely. The only way you understand it is by the result that you have in your life, by the feeling you have of a connection that nourishes you and feeds you.” —Rudi.

“And life is the teacher, life is God. It is creative energy, it is all around you. Every human being, every bit of weather, every situation that comes is within itself the content and the reflection of where you are. We all react differently. We all are different with every situation that takes place. It is really your barometer. It is trying to show you that you don’t react right, that you don’t feel this and you don’t feel that and we all take it as an enemy. And it is not an enemy. It is a mirror being held up to show you where you are, how you are, what you feel, what you don’t feel. And you find yourself becoming detached and then you want to feel hot flashes. It is incongruous. You have to really go along and grow as a situation opens and shows itself. And it is to do it with the greatest depth.” —Rudi.

"All the practices of yoga are about returning to what was already there: our inherent wisdom, our natural goodness, and our spiritual wholeness.” -JHL
