Peace Mantra
This morning's meditation is focused on the mantra, "Om Shanti Shanti Shanti" which translates to asking the universe for peace in the body, the voice, and the mind. In traditional mantra practices the mantra is said 108 times because of the significance of the number 108 in the world around us. Today we are using the traditional practice, and focusing on this mantra for an extended length of time. We are quieting the mind, and allowing the mantra to connect us with the breath.
