Try to chant (one of) those: *Om Namaha Narayanaya* *Om Namaha Sivaya* *Hare Krsna - Hare Krishna - Krishna Krishna - Hare Hare Hare Rama - Hare Rama - Rama Rama - Hare Hare* *OM TRYAMBAKKAM YAJAMAHE SUGANDHIM PUSTIVARDHANAM URVAROOKAMEVA BANDANAAN MRITYORMOKSHEEYA MAAMRITAAT* Mantra for peaceful life: *Sarveshaam Svaastir Bhavatu Sarveshaam Shaantir Bhavatu, Sarveshaam Poornam Bhavatu Sarveshaam Mangalam Bhavatu Om Shanti, Shanti Shanteeh* But mantras alone without sattvic lifestyle, tapasya (renouncement), devotion to God will not give peace in life. Real peace comes once we liberate from karma and the three gunas and our enemies, such as physical longing (ka'ma), anger (krodha), avarice (lobha), vanity (mada), blind fascination (moha), and jealously (ma'tsarya). The eight fetters (bondages) are hatred (ghrn'a), apprehension (shaunka), fear (bhaya), shyness (lajja'), hypocrisy (jugupsa'), pride of ancestry (kula), vanity of culture (shiila), egotism (mana) By self-realization we can achieve peace. Below I copy a very nice text. om shanti, shanti, shanti! All the best, Shad >>> Man has to be unselfish if he wants peace in the world. Remove selfishness and egoism. Calm the passions. Purify the heart. Analyze your thoughts. Scrutinize your motives. Cleanse the dross of impurity. Realize God. All this you will obtain as direct reaction to self- knowledge. That much is certain. Man's passions have to be calmed or else he remains a brute. Passions lead to anger and excitement. There is culture when passions have been stilled. What is culture? Is it not discipline? How can you have it when passions are free? Next, you are to analyze your thoughts, scrutinize your motives and thus cleanse the dross of impurity, That is realizing God Himself. Purity is the aim. Passions must go and instead of them what we need today is the light of reason. And so we are to think and reason, until wisdom dawns, and the abstract God becomes a reality to all of us. This is the wisdom of Satguru Deva Babaji, who initiated Lahiri Mahasaya, who in turn, passed on the knowledge to Sri Yuketswarji and who verily bestowed all his spiritual wealth on Sri Yoganandaji, whose body remained with no decomposition whatsoever for three weeks and created a sensation not only in the Western Hemisphere but the world over." Taken from The Voice of Babaji A Trilogy on Kriya Yoga by: V.T, Neelakantan S.A.A. Ramaiah Babaji Nagaraj <<< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 Desires lead to expectations and ownerships. Those lead to successes and failures and pleasure and pain and more desires and the cycle repeats itself. OWMMMM desire-ayaha, vasanayaha vanishai swa also vanishai swahah! Works for some (caveat: it is not sanskrit!). Another one, seriously, also worked in many (hindi): Maa budhdhi dey, har bhranti ley Maa shakti dey, har klanti ley Maa bhakti dey, maa shanti dey maa mukti dey!
