'Salt of the Earth' Meditation
The 'AYA' Mantra
Yes, Oh Kindest People! Master Enlightener of the Universe has another one for you...
AYA
Here's a simple one. Sprinkle this one throughout your daily prayers like you would using salt.
The word salt derives from the same root as salutations, salvation. Jesus is reported to have said. "I am the salt of the earth"
Maybe He was referring to His meditation teachings.
Thus far, the best explanation I have come across, for how Sanskrit Mantra works, comes from Thomas Ashley-Farrand, the author of 'Mantra, Sacred Words of Power'
In this fabulous audio-tape set, he explains that by using a mantra, by virtue of repeating it, the vibrations from it permeate your entire being, and overcome all the current vibrations that you may be subject to, thus diminishing them and their corresponding thoughts, thus silencing the mind.
I believe, that, because of this, the mind kicks into the 'Alpha Brainwave' state. This state, I believe was described by Jesus as 'The Kingdom of Heaven within', and is where you may introduce your desires, through prayer, chanting, visualization, affirmations, etc, etc...
This Alpha brainwave state, as told by 70's bio-feedback expert and author, Jesse Stearns, produces miraculous results. Simply introduce your desires at this level, and then, get the heck out of the way! as Nature goes to work for you.
Yes, Oh Kindest People! Jesus may have been talking about this. "Seek Ye first The Kingdom of Heaven, and all things shall come to you."
Furthermore, as Lord Krisna said 60,000 moons ago, " Even a little of this dharma (activity), delivers from great fear." And so, by silencing the mind's thoughts, using this AYA technique, fearful thoughts will diminish as well, so I believe that Lord Krisna was referring to this technique.
Now, this mantra, AYA, that I have slapped together back in 1997, may also be modified to suit your personal taste. OmYa...or...OOHYA...or...OhYa...
Pick one that you like. Use it in silence or out loud, as you wish, to silence your mind and dissolve your stresses of the day.
lately I have come to develop a good one. it is deep and powerful...in silence...to yourself....repeat
yaomya...yaomya...yaomyala...
then pause a bit...then continue....it sets up a good rhythm pattern....do this for fifteen minutes
try it, you'll like it!
Please share it with others.
Commit to a daily routine that you can be comfortable with, and make it so that if you miss a day, you can make up for it the next day. May I suggest ten minutes of this and then introduce your desires.
May this bring you to Supreme Enlightenment!
Thank You
Sincerely
