From the Ocean to the clouds, to the plants, aquifers, rivers and streams, let your mind mingle with the glorious, life-giving movement of water in this rejuvenating meditative journey by Sandi Higgins through the amazing Water Cycle.

Explore the sensations and insights of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, percolation, run off and transpiration as you connect with the inner wisdom and ancient awareness of the water moving within you, through you, and all around you.

Water Cycle Meditation

An experiential chanting meditation (japa) of the sacred syllable Om, 108 times with Sandi Higgins.

This recording is meant to be used as an assist to your own chanting practice. You are always welcome to just listen but please note that this is not meant to be music so it is better if you use it as an assist to concentrate on your own chanting experience.

Why are we chanting Om? To realize the inner guru (aka Ishvara)...

तस्य वाचकः प्रणवः
tasya vācakaḥ praṇavaḥ 
this [inner guru] (tasya) is signified (vācakaḥ) by the sacred syllable Om (praṇavaḥ) - Patanjali yoga sutra 1.27

तज्जप स्तदर्थभावनम्
taj-japas tad-artha-bhāvanam
through repetition (japaḥ) of that (taj) [syllable] its meaning (tad- artha) becomes clear(bhāvanam) - Patanjali yoga sutra 1.28

Happy international day of Yoga! Keep practicing.
