RA MA DA SA Healing Mantra 22 Minutes

RA MA DA SA Healing Mantra 22 Minutes

Sky above you, land below you, fire within you! Original mantra meditation music by Dez Jetson + Black Moon Records.  RA means the sun and connecting with that frequency gives you energy. MA means the moon and it aligns you with receptivity. DA is the the energy of the Earth, grounding you in your roots. SA is Infinity and as you chant this, your energy rises upwards and outwards drawing in the healing the the Universe. When you chant SA a second time, you pull the energy of Infinity into you. SAY is a way of honoring the all-encompassing Thou.  It is personal, like a secret name for God or Universe. SO is a vibration of merger. HUNG is the Infinite, the vibrating real.  It is the essence of creation.  (So Hung together means, I am Thou) The service of the cosmic intelligence is within me.
