Hari Om
~~ Purifies and removes obstacles. Opens the heart. Awakens prana (natural energy) in the body. I say it throughout my yoga practice.
"I Am the Light!", is my favorite current mantra. In meditation, my goal is to clear my mind, stop any chatter, including mantras and just be in the light. I focus on the light.
Though I am now a Catholic, the mantra I learned in the 1970's from Siddha Yoga remains ever in me, as though on an endlessly repeating tape loop, OM NAMAH SHIVAYA. It's the last thing I hear in my "inner chant" as I go to sleep. If I find myself, for example, in traffic in my car, an "invisible hand" turns the dial and I hear myself chanting it out loud. I anticipate that I'll hear it at the time of my death, too. It's a great comfort to be reminded that everything endlessly transforms.
I have several- Gayatri Mantra, the Kedusha (Holy holy holy is the Lord of hosts, the whole world is filled with his glory), Namo Amida Butsu
