Monsoon of the Mind, Mantra for the Soul !!
Sanātana Dharma teaches that body, mind and nature move together like dancers in a circle.
When the sun shines, we often feel awake and happy. In Sanatana Dharma, the sun is the god Suryadev, who brings light and hope. Suryadev can “wake up” cheerful thoughts. I just close my eyes and picture a small sun in my heart and whisper “Om Surya Namah” (“I honor the Sun”).
Dark clouds and thunder can make us feel sleepy or sad. Rain is linked to Indradev, the rain god. Indradev’s rain can “wash away” our worries. If I am tired on a cloudy day, I pray " Om Indraya Namaha".
Very hot weather can make us grumpy or restless. Hindus see strong heat as the fire god Agnidev at work. Agnidev’s heat can “spark” our energy. If I feel angry, I take three slow breaths, think of a cool river and repeat “Om Agnidevaya Namaha”.
Cold, quiet nights may lead to lonely or thoughtful feelings. Many people picture Bhagavan Shiva, who meditates on snowy Mount Kailash, during such times. Bhagavan Shiva’s cool silence can “calm” a busy mind. Say Om Namaha Shivaya 11 times.
And, just like the sky changes, our feelings shift too.
