Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 Aum Amriteswaryai Namaha Who was that looking for meaning of an unusual syllable in their mantra? Ishwari devi? I found a website that says some bija have no definite meaning, their purpose is to charge the astral body. The major bijas found more commonly are relative to deities. > http://www.livelongto100years.com/mantras.html Kind of a cheesy site, but maybe useful information this, no? If you feel you can't wait for Mata to reveal meaning/purpose naturally by meditating.. you can go to a local (or email a cyber) pundit or swami. Many Mandirs have websites Ki Jai! I just now felt my chanting become an empty repatition of "blim blam pebbles bam bam" silly sounds - this happens especially while I'm "in the world" meditating i.e. walking the dog, riding the bus and i lose my focus or it happens just because the spiritual connection is waxing or waning (as it naturally will) like Chandra Dev - the moon. Tonight I wrote my mantra down for myself as a sentence in english (the native tongue) for example>"Oh Creator of the Universe, Dispellor of Sorrow, I bow to You." I'm going to experiment now with using this for japa when I wane to the mundane and lose site of HER. If SHE doesn't dig it, well it was nice group-ing with you beloved Amma group-ees. amarthya Jai Ma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
