Meditation:  LA015 780227 – To Bring Swift and Powerful Change

Yogi Bhajan – LA015 780227 – To Bring Swift and Powerful Change

Sit in easy pose with a straight spine.

With the fingers touching, place the left hand on top of the right with the palms facing down. Press the thumbs together, pointing toward the body. The mudra is held midway between the heart and throat chakras.

The arms are bent at the elbows to accomodate the mudra. They are maintained parallel to the floor.

Sit on the ground with the legs crossed, or in a chair with the weight of both feet equally distributed on the ground.

Deeply inhale*, exhaling completely as the mantra is chanted.

The eyes are 1/10 open.

Mantra:

The mantra consists of eight haris per breath; they are broken into two different vocal tones:

HARI HARI HARI HARI

(loud, powerful tone)

HARI HARI HARI HARI

(lower pitch and volume: female, soft, sophisticated tone.)

Don’t become very fast, now listen. Patience pays. Listen to the note and the tune which I am meditating and chanting and then you can create that sound yourself, first is a higher powerful tone, second is female soft sophisticated tone, both are very important. Hari Hari Hari Hari…

HARI is pronounced “huh-ree” with the accent on the second syllable.

Chanted all on one breath, one second per HARI or 8 seconds per round. “Both tones very important.”

This meditation was practiced for 11 minutes in class.

Comments:

“If you can do it for a really long time, it can bring swift and powerful change. Mantra is very powerful, so is the posture.”

Personal I Ching readings

Read the text from Richard Wilhelm's and subsequent translations of the I Ching

#49, line 6, #1

Fire ignites within the Lake, defying conditions that would deny it birth or survival:
The Superior Person reads the Signs of the Times and makes the Season apparent to all.

The support you need will come only after the deed is done.
Renewed forces, however, will provide fresh energy for exceptional progress.
Persevere.
All differences vanish.

A revolutionary Change must be made forcibly.
There is no negotiating with the Established Order.
Perfect timing is essential.
Let the abuse of power become apparent and oppressive to those around you before making your move.
Lay the groundwork, sow the seeds for Revolution without tipping your hand prematurely.
You will need a strong foundation, because you will have to bring about this necessary change alone.
You cannot count on popular support, so you must wait until there is massive dissent.
Then the avenue for your assault will be cleared. 

You dodge the snares and snatch victory with the lightning speed and agility of a panther.
The jackals lose their nerve and swear allegiance to you.
You have won your revolt.
Don’t seek to climb higher.
Instead stabilize the new order for the good of all.

Heaven above and Heaven below:
Heaven in constant motion.
With the strength of the dragon, the Superior Person steels himself for ceaseless activity.

Productive Activity.
Potent Influence.
Sublime Success if you keep to your course.

The time for action has come.
You now have the focus and the stamina necessary for accomplishing great tasks.
The path before you is being cleared and reward lies ahead.

“The institution of marriage is two polarities joined together to pull life together through hard and even times. But nowadays we think of relationship as staying together through even times only. How can it be possible that through any relationship you cannot have hard and even times?” Yogi Bhajan
