Bhagavad Gita Chapter 17 – Sraddhatraya Vibhaga Yoga Verse 23-28 OM Tat Sat – your mind needs to focus on “True Self” (Bhagawan) and away from sansarik activities. OM is Brahman and is also the manifestation of Brahman – prakriti. OM represents A – Creator - Brahma, U – Sustainer - Vishnu, M – Destroyer - Shiva OM – Heart chakra and above chakras are related to Spirituality. Lower chakra become balanced and stable in sansarik environment. OM chanting enables stability in the lower chakras and brings strength in above chakras stronger. Prana Shakti is directed towards I’svarah. Shradha is enacted to invoke the power to reach Brahman – Atma can be merged with Parmatma. The importance of Shradha is non-trivial. The power of Shradha can create events in your life. Desire is like a tool that takes you from Rajas to Sattavik and from there it can reach Brahman. **Unity in Diversity – Sankhya Yoga – I see Bhagawan in everyone. ***Diversity in Unity – Shradha – meditate when you start seeing everything exists in Bhagawan – this invokes small powers in you. Observe your mind without any efforts. Just observe the activities of mind  – this will take you towards silence. Then you meditate on silence.
