The Illuminated Path - Ashana CD

Ashana’s CD The Illuminated Path contains mantra music as well as written instructions for two powerful Kundalini Yoga Meditations which help you to alignment yourself and experience deep healing. When you practice these meditations for a period of 40 days, your will begin to see your own personal transformation unfold. According to the teachings of Yogi Bhajan, 40 days make you break a habit, 90 days can create a new habit, 120 days will make this new habit become you are, and with a 1000-days meditation you will experience mastery.

Ashana’s beautiful vocals and expansive Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls on her meditation album The Illuminated Path will guide you into this meditation experience and will keep you on the “Illuminated Path".

Meditation One: The Crystalline Path. Mantra Hari Nam Sat Nam
Sit straight in easy pose. Hold your hands palms down with the right hand on top of the left hand. Keep the hands level with the Heart Center. Eyes are focused on the tip of the nose or 1/10th open. Chant the mantra 3 times on a single breath and continue for 31 minutes:
Hari Nam Sat Nam Hari Nam Hari
Hari Nam Sat Nam Sat Nam Hari
The first part of this mantra aligns the powerful creative flow of life (Hari Nam) with your personal Identity and destiny (Sat Nam). The second line aligns your intuition with your intention so the unseen hand of spirit supports your fulfillment. This opens your awareness about any positive or negative input that can sway you from your essential path. It will give you the strength to find the silver lining in any cloud. It makes you defend by awareness, not by reaction or threat. It will help you to set your project righteously so you can guide it through all the interest that would interfere or stop it. In this way, you can pass the challenges and sail towards fulfillment. When you are balanced, you can say and mean, "All this life is Your Gift. The pain and tragedy are as sweet as nectar."

Meditation Two: The Healing Light. Mantra: Ra Ma Da Sa
Sit straight in easy pose. Place the hands at the corner of the chest in prayer pose. Eyes are closed and turned in and up to the third eye point. Chant the mantra - continue for 31 minutes:
YRa Ma Da Sa Sa Say So Hung
The Ra Ma Da Sa Mantra helps you to tap into the energies of the sun, moon, earth, and the Infinite Spirit to bring deep healing. You can chant this Mantra either to heal yourself, or to send healing energy to anyone you wish. This powerful healing mantra connects you to the healing light of the Universe. Combined with this centering Mudra, you focus the energy of the mantra into the body for self-healing.
