Chanting Order of Bija Mantras
Sathya
In which order do we need to chant the bija mantras?
In one place it is given as, “Om Lum Namaha, Om Vum Namaha, Om Rum Namaha, Om Yum Namaha, Om Hum Namaha”
Whereas in the Naran Heal site, the following order is given, “Om Hum Namaha, Om Yum Namaha, Om Rum Namaha, Om Vum Namaha, Om Lum Namaha”.
Naran
The order from HUM to LUM can relax and stabilize the mind.
The order from LUM to HUM can be useful for all physical problems. It will energise the organs.

SOHAM Meditation
Naran
Say ‘SO’ during inhale internally and ‘HAM’ for exhale. A mild or soft breath will do.
Use only one speed while doing this rapid breathing, without holding the breath during inhale and exhale.
After 45 minutes of rapid breathing, we don’t need to breathe at all. In that state of no breathing, we merge with the cosmic breath. Then the latter will take over our breathing and take care of it.
Whenever we have a diarrhea or dysentery SOHAM breathing can do the necessary healing. Our pulse rate changes from 74 to 60.
If the breathing is fast, then our focus will be on our breath, mind becomes quiet, and throws away toxins from our system.
Instead of SOHAM (I am that), you may chant NAGAM (I am not) or KOHAM (who am I).
It is better to use a CD that chants SOHAM as then it will be easier for us to maintain the speed of breathing.

If What is going to happen will happen, Why to chant?
Bhavi
In the past, I have chanted, prayed a lot, with full faith in universal divine force. But, I was always told you can’t change anything. What is going to happen will happen? Nobody can change anything.
I still have faith and trust. However, I always had a question in mind then why do we pray and chant the mantras if they are not going to bring positivity to the concerned situation?
Is it fear of something negative happening to us and our family, which brings us, back again to chanting and praying?
Naran
You cannot always get what you want. Sometimes, you can get what you don’t want. These are two life rules, which we have to accept.
It is the mind which plays the game. If something does not happen, we wallow; if something happens, we elate. How long is this elation?
After some time, we need something else and again mental emotional drama begins. It is because we attach importance to the result only and not to the action.
If the action is done, and the result is surrendered, you will remain peaceful always.
Ultimately, what we want in life is either peace or happiness. To get happiness or peace is the aim of all.
Surrendering the result to the hands of Divine only can give you peace or happiness. Chanting or healing aims at changing the mind to accept what is happening.
Best of luck!!
Dealing with fears
Nanda
I have a fearful attitude to visit hospitals or to attend the patients in the hospital and panic to hear the news of death of near and dears.
Besides, I avoid traveling distant places either by train or bus. So, I feel guilty about myself for this. So, kindly suggest Bach flower remedy to heal from this type of psychosomatic state of mind.
Naran
Take the flower remedies “MIMULUS, ROCK ROSE”
Explanation
Fear of visiting hospitals, death, new places: MIMULUS
Getting panic attacks: ROCK ROSE
Purpose of Tapping
(From Multi-Dimensional Healing June 27 Workshop)
Naran
Simple way of tapping/EFT
Pull the entire 10 fingers one at a time as well as the gamut point (it’s the hollow place between the front little and ring fingers).
For any type of problem, pull each finger and tap on gamut, and affirm “I accept myself totally”.
What does the affirmation means?
It means that I accept my life situation, the event, as well as my feelings and my thoughts.
How to make sure we are not influenced by a situation?
Situation is one percent, our reaction is 99%. It becomes bothersome or problematic because of our own mind.
You are watching an accident on the road. A person riding a motor cycle had met with an accident.
The mother of the person, who was watching it happen, will react more strongly than others. Same event but reactions are different.
Our habit is to react emotionally. If we don’t have connection to the situation, I am not affected. Who gives this link? Isn’t it the mind?
If you do tapping then you will come out of the panic situation.
Why should you come out of the panic situation?
Then you can help, as you have a calm and tranquil mind. You will react calmly and do the necessary. Instead we overreact and spoil the whole thing.
Detach Emotionally
Ravi
I have a problem of getting emotionally attached to people (especially of the opposite sex). They would come on my mind for maximum times of the day.
I unknowingly get so involved that after some time in the relationship, I say or do things that I don’t want to or that which is not good for the relation. Then of course there is friction in the relation.
I really start to feel the energy when this starts to happen. I try to control but cannot.
Naran
Do the forgiving exercise with EFT (tapping).

Roles People Play
Reddy
Quite often, we are required to play different roles with respect to the same person. In the process lot of misunderstandings occur due to perception at both ends.
At work, we have a subordinate who is also a friend. This friend does not play his role in the office as required.
In the role of a friend, you try to protect him in various ways besides telling him / her about the problems in a friendly manner.
However, if it is not adhered to, it may go the extreme end that you may even need to terminate him/her. It is a very difficult choice. You are torn between both the roles.
In the earlier days, we could take a very dharmic stand and take decisions.
However, now we are required to play a role negotiating happiness for various people in the name of Professionalism / Management etc and suffer.
At home, we have to act as a Parent, Friend, Teacher, friend to your kids.
Often a role is over played by each of the participant resulting in clashes and misunderstanding. Each forgets that they are over stepping on the other role due to inherent flair for one.
Thus, a parent who is generally has a strong Vasanas of a Teacher in making, preaches more and is not able to know when to cut off and act as a friend.
Please give your recommendation to solve the above by way of flower remedy.
Naran
Whatever the role we play, let us ask a simple question.
What is that we lack in any role?
Basically, every relationship is based on communication. How do we communicate? What do we communicate? What do we want to communicate?
The objective of any communication is to reach out to the other person.
BEECH is the remedy for improving our communication.
What are the negative mental states of Beech?
- Unable to understand other man’s point of view
- Unable to appreciate other man’s priorities
- Intolerance
- Fault-finding
- Desire to control or change the other person
If one is in one of the above mental states, right communication will not take place. Here, how Beech can help us?
BEECH can bridge the gap between two persons and makes one understand other man’s point of view.
WALNUT should be taken along with Beech. Walnut can bring in change in the mind. A changed outlook and a changed view will give a different communication tool.
For you Mr. Reddy, in addition to taking BEECH and WALNUT, you take CENTAURY also, while communicating in the office.
“What would my friend think? Will he be hurt, if I say this?” These expressions belong to negative mental state of Centaury.

Does karma theory says murderer can go scot free
GA
Thanks for your reply to my previous question. You have advised me to surrender before the ultimate reality. I am trying to do so.
I think you are not from this universe. You are a divine personality. Your words are very powerful – even magical, having a deep impact on my mind and soul.
I am a little bit confused about the theory of karma. As we know, we all are facing good or bad in our lives due to our own good or bad karmas and we should not blame others for our sufferings.
The point at which I am confused is that if someone does some harm to us then we say this is result of our own karma and the person is just a medium.
For an example, somebody kills a man then the man should have definitely done such type of karmic account with the murderer or have done something wrong in the past, for which he has to be punished like this by divine forces.
If it is just the previous account which is settling down now and the murderer is just a medium then murderer should not be punished anywhere not here or not in another world.
And as you say that divine forces compel us to do specific karma as per our nature or prakriti then in this case divine wants the killed man to be punished like this and the murderer is just a divine helper or a medium.
So my question is this that the person who becomes the medium (who is apparently doing wrong karma) in another person’s suffering (as my suffering is due to my own bad karma) will be punished for this by divinity?
If no, is it because he is just a medium? I hope you will show me some light.
Naran
Karma theory is just an explanation put forward. If you want to justify karma theory, it leads you to confusion.
Karma will act upon one, who does not think that he is the tool of divine.
All our reactions and views are happening at the outer mind – the mind that looks outside and assesses. Nothing that affects the outer mind affects the inner mind at all.
Whenever you want an answer, just ask the questions and go inside. Stop analyzing. Be silent. Silence alone will bring the answer.
The inner mind sees what the outer mind does not see. It also does not see what the outer mind sees.
Stop reading books on spiritualism or karma etc.
