Here the use of creativity is definitely allowed, so that different movements can be used in harmony with the mantra. So-called Celestial Communications use a certain mantra recurrently and connect the words with certain body movements. In addition, there are many meditations that use a mantra. Sat Nam can be translated as true identity. Often the mantra is then combined with the breath, i.e. Especially the mantra Sat Nam is offered again and again for the students to let it resonate as a mantra in their mind during the individual exercises. In addition, within the yoga session, (short) mantras are regularly used - such as Har (which means creative creativity). Thus, each yoga session has a clear framework and also triggers trust through this recurring ritual of mantra singing. To conclude the yoga class, the song May the long time sun is classically sung with 3 final long “Sat Nam”. (I salute the energy through all the ages.) (I salute the energy that is always there.) (I salute the energy that leads me from darkness to light). Right at the beginning of a Kundalini Yoga session, two well-known mantras are chanted - first the Adi Mantra, which is usually followed by the Mangala Charan Protective Mantra.

The power of mantras is an important part of Kundalini Yoga and therefore indispensable.

My advice: Trust your intuition and let it guide you … Speciality in Kundalini YogaĮspecially in Kundalini Yoga mantras attain a special position and have a much higher priority compared to other yoga styles. Often you will have a sense of it and can trust it when you feel drawn to a particular mantra - perhaps initially for no apparent reason. However, for the effect of the mantras you do not need to understand its words and their meaning, because the mantra works anyway. You can find out for all mantras their translation as well as meaning or inherent power in books or online. A few Kundalini Yoga mantras are also in English. The mantras used in Kundalini Yoga are primarily from Gurmukhi, a sacred Indian language, and thus are usually not directly translatable for us. Each mantra has a positive effect on you and supports you in your individual processes. This in turn allows you to control and direct your mind more consciously. You can therefore also use mantras in a very specific way to create a certain effect. Each mantra brings its own sound and thus specific energy, which can then affect you. Through the generated sound or sound current and the vibration, a mantra triggers a specific, targeted effect on you and your chakras. In yoga, a mantra is spoken of as the creative projection of the mind. What does mantra mean?īasically, the word mantra comes from Sanskrit and is translated as sacred syllable/word/verse. By speaking or chanting positively affirmed mantras, you allow your soul to access the higher energies and an elevated state of consciousness. Every sound influences you and changes your state. Through the harmony in the vibration you can experience infinity and feel it within you. The Naad is the inherent being of every sound, or the sound current. The participants are then invited to chant the mantras (alternatively humming, speaking or thinking - but ideally chanting) and thus awaken a very special power: the Naad. As in no other form of yoga, Kundalini Yoga uses a wide variety of mantras again and again.
