Meditation - Om Ma Sri Aravinda - Free to use

“As a rule the only mantra used in this Sadhana is that of the Mother or of my name and the Mother’s.” Sri Aurobindo, On Himself, Cent. Edn., , “Om Ma Sri Aravinda“ is the combination of the sanskrit names of Brahman (OM), Mother (Ma) and Sri Aurobindo (Sri Aravinda). Sri Aurobindo tells us: “The japa is usually successful only on one of two conditions – if it is repeated with a sense of its significance, a dwelling of something in the mind on the nature, power, beauty, attraction of the Godhead it signifies and is to bring into the consciousness, – that is the mental way; or if it comes up from the heart or rings in it with a certain sense or feeling of bhakti making it alive, – that is the emotional way. Either the mind or the vital has to give it support or sustenance.“
