MAHAMANTRA MEDITATION

Place your tongue on the upper palate,
locked. This will stop verbalization.
The hardened eyeballs and locked tongue
will help still the mind.

ACTIVITY OF THE DAY:

MAHAMANTRA MEDITATION

PRACTICE FOR 11 MIN

❖ Hum on the exhale. ❖ The humming should be as lengthy as possible. ❖ At the end of humming, let your body inhale naturally as is necessary. ❖ Humming should start from the navel and be as deep as possible. ❖ It should be as loud as possible, and as long as you can keep it while exhaling. ❖ Don't make an effort to take in deep breaths; the body itself will take breaths when needed. ❖ Don't become tense, just do it in a playful mood. ❖ After stopping the humming, keep your eyes closed and remain silent and inactive for 10 minutes with a smiling face and blissful mood.

MAHAMANTRA MEDITATION

PRACTICE FOR 11 MIN

❖ If any thought comes to you, let it come. ❖ Simply watch your mind as if you are watching the television, without resisting your thoughts or passing any judgment on them. ❖ Remain silent and blissful. ❖ At the end of 11 min, tell the children that they can slowly open their eyes and ask them to share their experience.

INFERENCE:

Mentally freeze your eyeballs, think they are made of stone and still them. At the same time place your tongue on your upper palate and lock it. If there is movement of the tongue, that creates verbalization, then visualization is difficult. These two tools of mentally freezing your eyeball movement and locking your tongue, substantially reduce the wandering of the mind due to sensory disturbances.
