Hello again, sorry for the long absence… was in Europe teaching yoga for a month! I think I forgot how to write in the absence 
In case you’re around, I am doing a meditation on Sundays at 1PM, material I have not taught previously.Since the Sunday afternoon mantra meditations are only thirty minutes, and there is so much background material to discuss, I want to fill in the blanks about this.
Firstly, a student just came to me and said she was hesitating to come because she doesn’t know how to manage a block inside her energy body, that something feels stuck around the heart.
This terminology may be familiar to those who do pranayama and meditation, with the goal of pulling energy up the spine. I too used to feel a block along the central channel that I couldn’t seem to resolve through any amount of meditation or mantras. Finally one significant day in my life about two years ago, when I got to heal a relationship with my mother, I felt the energy start to flow upwards with ease. So, the chakras and the energy body also hold obstructions in them which mirror those in the mind.
I also believe that the opportunity to meet my Mom and go through that process may have only come about through the work I had made on myself in the years prior. So, in other words, meditating in this way may have elevated me to the point that my psyche was ready to have the experience.
So when that student complained of a block in the energy body, I just told her to come, and chant, as this process itself shakes up the held patterns of energy and reshapes them to their higher possibility.
Each of the seven chakras locations, and their basic attributes of color, element, and psychological associations should be memorized by every yoga practitioner. There are a lot of books on that subject so I won’t go into that here.
The chakras are visualized and struck with the sound of the bija mantra in order from the base of the tailbone upwards to the top of the head.
1. Root chakra - mantra “KREEM” - this mantra is the sound which creates electricity and transformation. It is the seed sound for the goddess Kal
i, who is the personification of Kundalini, hence placing this mantra at the tailbone stimulates this higher, transformative prana to activate. Kali is TIME and rules over the dissolution of matter back to energy (death) as well as the destruction of illusion. When chanted at the root chakra, this mantra also helps us to understand what true security is- inside the Self!
OM KREEM KALIKAYE NAMAHA!
2. Sex chakra - mantra “KLEEM” - this mantra is sticky, in that it holds things in it’s place, and attracts to itself. It is the energy of attraction, beauty, creativity, and love. Connected with the Goddess Tripura Sundari who, symbolizing a pacified crown chakra grants us the experience of beauty and truth from within. It can also be used for Lord Krishna, and any deity or thing we wish to pull towards us. As the sex chakra is concerned with creativity and love, awakening the higher side of this chakra with this mantra, we become a source of love and creativity, without the need to manipulate others to satisfy us. OM KLEEM SUNDARYE NAMAHA!
3. Navel chakra - mantra “HOOM” or “DOOM” as you can hear, these two mantras both employ the long U sound, which has a similar effect of protection. Chant HOOM, with a short U sound, emphasizing the exhale and you will feel the navel contract, this is where the navel chakra is. HOOM is specific for Agni, or FIRE. DOOM is specific for the goddess Durga who is sought for protection. These mantras increase intensity and heat, which is a good thing especially for the digestive strength. The higher notion of this chakras meaning of power is the expression of a quiet power that does not need violence to attain it’s ends. Instead, true power is when all things are given freely to us without request or struggle.
OM HOOM AGNIYE SWAHA!
4. Heart chakra - mantra “HREEM” - This mantra is like OM but for the Goddess, and connects you magically at a heart level to the Supreme, or, any other deity or thing we wish to get closer to. This is one of the most important mantras and has positive effects upon the physical heart as well as the energetic heart. The higher aspect of the heart chakra is to let the expression of love become unconditional and the direct perception of the air element.
OM HREEM MAHADEVYE NAMAHA!
5. Throat chakra - mantra “AYM” (like AIIIIM) - chant this mantra for wisdom, higher learning, teaching ability, and the gift of convincing speech. Connected with the Goddess Saraswati, this mantra is the most important mantra after OM.
OM AYM SARASWATYE NAMAHA!
6. Third eye - mantra “SHREEM” - I never tire lately of talking about SOMA, and the soma chakra at the back of the head. The mantra SHREEM brings about beauty, devotion, abundance, softness, and can be used to take refuge in whatever deity we choose. SHREEM is connected to the goddess Lakshmi, who’s two lower arms dispense tangible wealth, and who’s two upper arms hold lotuses, the abundance in spirit, the SOMA we yogis are seeking.
OM SHREEM MAHALAKSHMIYE NAMAHA!
7. Crown chakra - mantra “OM” - liberation, going beyond all form. When you chant OM, bring your mind to stillness after the sound has finished, which takes your mind to the pure stillness within.
Chant each of these in order, drawing your mind to each chakra, striking the chakra with the mantra:
KREEM
KLEEM
HUM
HREEM
AYM
SHREEM
OM!
As your concentration gets better, think of each goddess at each chakra and dissolve the chakras into each other until they dissolve at the crown. So, you can dissolve earth into water (root chakra to sex chakra), water into fire, fire into air, air into space, space into mind, and mind into the cosmic.
I love this meditation, and find it very powerful. Come join me to practice each Sunday in May at 1PM!
Much love, Adrian

Hi
I will be sitting for a important “English” Exam in shortly. What mantra should I chant to get very good result..

In response to the comments:
Dev- KLIM or KLEEM is what attracts. A suggested mantra for attracting love to you is: “OM KLIM RADHA KRISHNAYE NAMAHA” which is the seed sound of attraction plus the names of an ideal cosmic couple; radha and krishna. It might not be so much that you should “try” to get your ex back to you but rather focus on healing and open yourself up for something even better. HRIM is also used for the heart.

Hi Vickie, there are references to amrit - nectar being a product of the bindu chakra- an eighth chakra at the back of the head. I believe I have also heard of this from the sahasrara but that’s not typical. It should be accompanied by a massive state of ecstasy and compassionate love feeling. Your thoughts?

Hi Vikash,
for study, learning, teaching, speaking, and higher knowledge- chant to the force of Saraswati.
The bija mantra is AYM and this can be chanted separately. One of the longer mantras is:
OM AYM SARASWATYE NAMAHA
Remember, this should be chanted internally and audibly over and over for a long period of time- at least 40 days

Hi I m doing kleem to attract a girl I like coz she dsent think in that way abt me, hw 2 do it properly plz tell, we had a relation b4 bt that was just out of mercy 4 me maybe she came…
11 Adrian Cox // Mar 13, 2009 at 1:45 pm
Shyam,
maybe you’re saving yourself a lot of trouble without her… be unattached, there are millions of fish in the sea. Instead you can just focus on attracting the right love for you.
A mantra for that can be:
OM KLEEM RADHA-KRISHNAYE NAMAHA
this in essence is attracting the ideal relationship using radha krishna as the model. Good luck!
PS:
if you persist, use her name:
OM KLEEM (insert name) namaha

Thanks for your wonderful website. I’m a painter, and have been chanting the shreem/lackshmi mantra for a long time because I love the feeling of peace it gives me. I have two questions. First, should one chant namaha or swaha at the end of “om shreem maha lackshmeyei”? I get different answers from different sources, relating to the age of the chanter, the gender of the deity, and the meanings of the two words themselves. VERY confusing. Personally, I get a better feeling from swaha, but what do you think?
My second question has to do with guidance for my art. Is Saraswati the closest I’ll come to a deity of painting? She is the goddess of the “speaking arts” but can she help with visual arts as well? And can I “stack” these two types of mantras in the same sitting? Whew! Sorry for so much inquiry… Thank you much, Shanti

Hi Shanti,
lovely name!
I have not heard about Swaha in relation to the deity gender, but about age of the chanter, OR if the there is yajna (sacrificial fire) present. With fire it’s always swaha as Swaha is the name of the wife of Agni. Regarding age, it’s supposed to be after the age of 27 when the dominant energy moves to the fire chakra, and therefore swaha gives more results to those over 27.
Ganesh is the usual patron of arts. Personally, I would not stack them simultaneously… but I do switch around. Love the feeling of Saraswati lately. Thanks for writing!

thank you..i do accept this that has happend to me…i will look up amrit - nectar …it had came out of the very top of my head, it was very sticky..
i did feel feelings of a very hightened awareness..massive state of ecstasy and compassionate love feeling as i was exspanding it was as though my soul was not only on the inside..yet at this same time i was lost inside because of the leaving my marriage…it was as though i felt i had suffered great loss.
yet my marriage was suffering as i due to restraint and emmotional abuse.
i realized i could nolonger stay in a life of pain.
i know that divine intervention was what happened to me…as i met the dearest friend at this time that has done everything to help free me from what was holding me down.
