My first encounter with Atma Kriya Yoga has started with the 40 days of Project mantra, introductory practice to Atma Kriya Yoga. I religiously made sure to follow the project mantra and I am so glad I did. As humans we experience a lot of emotions in our day to day lives and so did I.. i experienced sadness, happiness, grief , conflicts with loved ones but how i personally handled every emotion was just so surprising...Before I would react without even thinking which is normal for most humans as the mind is more active but in these past 40 days I noticed my mind was more aligned. Also while chanting, my mind would at times start wandering away but sudden realisation and taking over the mind by chanting has definitely created awakening within me..It has changed my focus.
Before when I used to feel low upset etc I would think let me go buy something nice for myself and maybe that would cheer me up but little did I know chanting the mantra does magic it tunes your mind, raises your vibrations and activates the soul...
During the time when I lost a loved one, chanting on namo narayana gave me so much strenght and also made me feel at peace and helped me handle the loss...
My best moment was when I was in Mombasa and I was chanting by the beach with the sound of the waves..It was a special moment with myself whereby I felt myself connecting to my soul, I felt the negativity of the mind drifting away and most of all I felt guruji was so nearby..It was the moment I felt so free and this happened after a very very long time (during this moment I also got the thought bhakti marga kenya should do a trip to a beach location and do the chanting by the beach)
Some days I was so into chanting the mantra that i would lose track of the time and I would feel the energies getting purified,a certain sensation was felt which wouldnt let me stop chanting I felt that divinity it was so beautiful expressing it in words would not do justice...
It made me aware at all times how important chanting is in our everyday life it puts the mind back to its place the best medicine ever..
Chanting the mantra worked best during the times of panic in various situations it amazed me how I could control my reactions..
This awakening from within is so beautiful and at all times always I wish to just chant on namo narayana..I am human and I know I will go back a step at times but I also know chanting is the best medicine for the mind and for the soul ❤
We must all feel so blessed we have Masters Grace and blessings upon us and it is the most beautiful thing ❤
