Incantation of OM – Stage I

Start by sitting in a comfortable meditative position. You must be totally and completely relaxed. Shut your eyes and begin to mentally chant OM. Let your mind repeat the sacred monosyllable Om continuously without a break. If you feel any distractions, increase the pace of the chant OM. But don’t give in to the distractions; never succumb. After some time slow down the chanting, consciously; slow it down more and more in sync with your breathing. If your mind again jumps to distractions, once more increase the speed of chanting the syllable OM. In this way, by raising and slowing down the speed, you will be able to have an unbroken stream of the chanting in your mind.

Stage II

Soften your chanting. Make it gentler and gentler. Let it become more and more effortless. As you progress with meditation, you will find yourself reaching the second stage. In this begin to feel the vibrations of the incantations in different parts of your body, some parts. Later, if you’re progressing well, you must feel it throughout the body.

Stage III

Make an attempt to further slow down the incantation of OM. As you do so, you will come to detect a gap between the incantations in your breath. If you further slow down the gap you will find it widens and widens and, finally, diffuses into silence.
