Power of meditation in a relationship
|
Stage two
From the 5th day, variations in tones are given in counts for another 4 days. The tone is filled with emotional appeal of sorrow, anger, fear etc.
From childhood we receive more don'ts than do's and are filled with more negations. The emotional counts help in emitting the negations.
The process is emptying of our mental blocks, emotional inhibitions. During this period, participants could breakdown, get tensed or physically fall into deep slumber. By the 8th day, one is at ease.
Stage three
Counts are followed by slokas. This process is continued for 6 days and then counts and slokas are stopped. The participants meditate on their own - silently.
The Meditation Slokas are:
Sloka 1 - ( in Sanskrit )
Vritha Vrishti Samudreshu, Vritha Triptasya Bhojanam
Vritha Danam Samarthasya, Vritha Deepo Dewapicha
Bahanti Varshanti Nnadanti Bhanti, Dhayanti Nrityanti Samashyosant
Nadiodhana Mat Gajaha Anantaha Priya Vihinaha, Shikhinaha Prawalgraha.
Interpretation in English:
The sea does not need rain, the well- fed need no food,
The well-to-do need no alms, day needs no light.
Rivers flow, rains pour, separated from their spouse,
The elephants recollect their beautiful moments.
While the peacocks dance, monkeys play,
And the forest glows in its natural glory.
The Philosophy
The objective of life. One must serve with a purpose, where the end justifies the means. Service must be spontaneous like nature and with self-pride and dignity like the elephant.
Sloka 2 ( in Sanskrit )
Sarvamangala Maangalye Shive Sarvathya Sadhike,
Sharanye Trambake Gauri Narayani Namastute.
Srishti Sthiti Vinashanang Shaktibhute Sanatani,
Gunasraye Gunamaye Narayani Namastute
Sharanagata Dinarta Paritrana Parayane,
Sharvasharti Haredevi Narayani Namastute
Interpretation in English:
One who always thinks good of others,
Has purity of mind, is always blessed.
Lord is both the Creator and the destroyer,
But one who is full of virtue and appreciates others, is always blessed.
One who is compassionate to others is always blessed.
The Philosophy
The need of goodness for others even in thought. Implores strength and compassion for the fellow human being. Significance of the words Narayani Namastute:
Namsatute means bowing to God.
Narayan - the Sanskrit word, is explained as Nara + Ayan = Narayan. ie.,Nara meaning human being and Ayan meaning the mirror. In essence it is the reflection of self - the soul. Therefore, bow to one's own SOUL. Every religion in the world equates soul to God. Let us therefore, worship "The God" within me and develop individual strength of mind - clarity, objectivity, determination and understanding. The focus of meditation is self- awareness.
As mentioned earlier, self-awareness is the key to self-happiness. Self-happiness is a two way process of individual joy and joy of relationship.
