Sadhana Guidelines

Create a sacred circle of protection prior to starting Japa so as the aura expands, it is protected
(Video Instructions at minute 49 of the video)

Step 1: Sit in Easy Pose, and light a candle to begin the Japa Ceremony. 

Step 2: Take a handful of Rice (earth element) place rice in right hand and make a circle in a clockwise direction, switch to your left hand as you circle behind you and complete the circle.

Step 3: Incense - (fire element) place incense in the right hand and make a circle in a clockwise direction. Switch to the left hand as you circle behind you and complete the circle.

Step 4: Water - (water element) sprinkle water from your right hand in a clockwise direction, switch to your left hand as you circle behind you and complete the circle.

Step 5: Air/Akasha - use your right hand to draw a circle - switch to the left hand as you circle behind you

Step 6: Visualize yourself creating a circle of illuminated white light around you in a clockwise direction 

Step 7: Set your intention - take water and put it in the right hand. Support the right hand with the left hand underneath of it.  Set your intention SanKalpa to stay in the circle until the Japa is complete (11, 31 or 60 minutes)

(example: I make the intention to stay in this circle for 11 minutes and not move out of my Japa)

Then you offer the water to the cosmos. Make this offering 3 times


**Note: if you need to take a break and leave the circle you must open the circle and then reset it once you have returned.
