Mantra Meditation 15

Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gye Nyame.

Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gayathri.

1

Thanks be to seeing our self as spirit/energy,

and chanting Your Holy names. We are waking up,

cleaning up, turning around and rebuilding our life

on You, the solid "Ground" of Omnipresent,

Omnipotent, Omniscient, Divine Intelligence.

2

We chant Your Holy Names and think of You

as the Imperishable Source of dignity, generosity,

humility, and all edifying qualities. 

3

We know from observation and experience.

We can wake up, stand up, clean up, climb out

of the misery of Maya. We can return to a life of

bliss and comprehension by constantly chanting

Your Holy Names. 

4

We chant Your Holy Names, thinking of You

as the Divine Power, Force, Energy, or Nature at

the Source of all Sentient Beings, throughout the

Cosmic Manifestations. 

5

Identifying the self as the body, mind, intellect,

or ego, is the root of our entanglement in the

many faceted problems of the illusory world,

Maya. Chanting Your names is a method of

fixing our consciousness on You and being

pulled out of the ocean of birth, disease,

old-age, and death, the sufferings Maya.

6

Chanting Your Holy Names with every breath,

and submitting everything to You is something

we can do to aways think of You and liberate our

lives from Maya.  

7

In reality, we are that which never ends. We are

the Infinite, Nameless, who Witnesses, pervades

and transcends Silence. Chanting Your Holy

Name continuously, we reawaken to this Eternal

Self, this Omnipresent Supreme Being who is

beyond all names and forms, and is always here. 

8

Thank You for inspiring us to chant Your Holy

Names. We purify our consciousness, awareness, and

intelligence by chanting Your Holy Names. Moreover,

we transcend the illusory worlds when we chant

Your Holy Names. 

9

By chanting your Holy Names, we are purifying

our consciousness, awareness, intelligence, and freeing

our lives from the slavery and suffering of selfish

desires. Gradually, with purity of consciousness,

awareness, and intelligence, we are returning to the

Divine Freedom and bliss of Your Omnipresence. 

10

Chanting Your Holy Names empowers us to wake up. This

spiritual practice straightens us up, purifies us, and unifies

us; as a consequence we are an increasingly greater blessings

to ourselves and all sentient beings.

11

You are the One, the Greatest Simplicity. You are always

here. In this moment, as our Divine Intelligence, You are

available, helping us resurrect our original Pure

Intelligence. By chanting Your Holy Name, we can

experience this fact. 

12

The goal of our efforts to liberate ourselves

from Maya is You, the Source of freedom,

Infinite Intelligence, Silence, the tranquil

bliss of Eternal Peace, and the Supreme

Consciousness, Awareness, and

Intelligence of all.

13

You are always here, permeating and transcending

the Silence, the Omnipresent Infinite Stillness of

Being. Thank You for teaching us how to worship

You as Supreme Intelligence, within and beyond

consciousness and awareness, by chanting Your

Holy Name.

14

Divine Reality, Master of the cosmic manifestations; You

alone are the only Being worth striving for. Thank You

for engaging us in Your service evermore by the chanting

Your Holy Names. You are Invincible, Unbounded

Consciousness, Infinite foundation of all awareness

and intelligence. All praise to You. This is included

in the chanting of Your Holy Names.

15

The beginning, middle, and end of the cosmic manifestation,

and all space, rest in You. All the Arts and Sciences have

their origin, maintenance, and annihilation in You. Thank

You for showing us the benefits of total submission of

everything to You, beginning with the chanting of Your

Holy Names.

16

Chanting Your Holy Names, our total Being is being

purified. We are truly experiencing the fact that You,

as well as we, are, in the final analysis, Pure

Intelligence, within and beyond all designations and

dualities.  

17

Chanting Your Holy Names gets us out from under

the oppression and severe influence of material

designations identification and the attachment to

temporary things. Gradually we awaken to the

indescribable, bliss-filled light within and beyond

consciousness, awareness, and ordinary

intelligence.

18

The more we chant Your Holy Names, the

more we are in Eternal, Transcendental

Consciousness. All glories to the chanting of

Your Holy Names. Chanting Your Holy

Names is one of the keys to cleansing our

consciousness, awareness, and intelligence to their

original strength and Divine Purity.
