It allows us to relax into our infinite self. Guru Dev Namo gives us the experience of the wisest seaman and their charts, to guide us to the many ports we are to serve and experience. If the limited individual ego in which we normally live is a small pond, then Ong Namo releases us into a vast and endless ocean. So imagine what chanting this mantra every day, just three times, can do! Day by day, accumulatively, it opens our receptivity, it nourishes our intuition, it offers us a moment’s respite from the endless dialogue of the lower minds. Guru Dev Namo calls on the subtle wisdom that guides you. It brings us into a receptive state of consciousness, tuning us in to the intuitive messages from our body and mind. It links the finite ‘me’ with infinity.īy chanting ‘Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo’ at the start of our kundalini yoga practice, we invite our ego, our ‘lower mind’ to acquiesce, allowing our higher self, our intuition, our neutral mind and innate wisdom to take the wheel and guide us through our yoga and meditation. It connects us with the realm of Buddha/ Christ/ Guru Nanak consciousness. Or a mala can be used- moving one bead for each repetition of the mantra. Alternatively, it can be used as a meditation, attaching the mantra to each breath. ‘Adi’ means ‘primal’ or ‘first’, and this mantra tunes us in to the wisdom of all those who have practised before us our teachers, our teachers’ teachers and the consciousness that holds them all. Typically, Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo is chanted at least three times for past, present, future.
It was an extended version of how we open the space for our everyday kundalini yoga practice, and it was GLORIOUS! The first meditation we practiced at White Tantra in London last weekend was 31 minutes of chanting the Adi Mantra – Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo – sitting in easy pose with eyes closed and hands in prayer mudra.
