The music band „Sat Chit Ananda Express“ performed Om Namah Shivaya during a mantra concert at Yoga Vidya in Bad Meinberg, Germany.

Om Namah Shivaya is a common greeting in yoga. „Om“ is Om , the all-encompassing. „Namah“ means more or less „greeting to“ and „Shivaya“ means „to Shiva“. So Om Namah Shivaya means obeisance to Shiva. But what does Shiva mean?

Shiva has many different meanings. „Shiva“ literally means „the loving, the kind“. But it also means “the higher self” and “the divine everywhere”. We can say „Om Namah Shivaya“ and use that in meditation or in kirtan. It is invoking the kind, the loving, the higher self within us.

Asato Ma Sat Gamaya, is an ancient verse from the Vedas.
It is a peace mantra, and it is also a prayer where we ask to experience the highest.
The entire text of Asato Ma means: lead us from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, from mortality to immortality.

“ I try not to sing, but to be sung. Not to put anything in the way of every sound that may come, to become empty, to become still. Back to the source. Hari Om Tat Sat.“ (Shankara) shankarayoga.de/

Baba Ram Das and Angeli are chanting „Radhe“ at Yoga Vidya in Bad Meinberg, Germany.

Radha is the most important of the gopis, the cowherds who felt deep love for Krishna. Radha’s love represents the devotee’s (bhakta) passionate love for God.

In this form of bhakti the devotee wants only God and God alone. Just as a new lover has only thoughts of the beloved, so a devotee with madhurya bhava (passionate love of God) has only thoughts of God. He wants to feel God’s presence and feels every minute of separation as great suffering – and the feeling of God’s presence as infinite happiness.

Ramadasa and Radha are chanting the kirtan Jaya Ma Durga during a mantra cincert at Yoga Vidya in Bad Meinberg, Germany.

„Jaya Ma Durga“, a simple kirtan to worship the Divine Mother. „Jaya Ma Durga“ goes very to the heart and leads to the experience of the divine presence, that’s how you feel the divine mother. You can imagine that light penetrates you there, you can imagine that the divine mother touches your heart, you can feel the divine mother as a force behind every fiber of your being. And even if you’re in trouble, if you’re in any emotion, if you’re anywhere sad or angry, you can say, “Jaya Ma Durga. O divine mother, you comfort me. Oh divine mother, you are always there for me. Jaya Ma Durga. Oh divine mother, manifest yourself in me, let me feel you. You transform me, you lead me to great joy and love.”
