"Now what is this breath business? I'll tell you. Under the eighth vertebra there is a cavity. We call it the prana center. In that prana center, with the breathing up to the tip of the tongue and on to the Ida and Pingala which adjust the temperature of the body, we breathe pranic energy. Pranic energy is the life force of the atom. If fifty years ago I would have come and talked to you about atomic energy, you would have said, "Go away. We don't understand you." When I talk about pranic energy, don't feel that I am speaking about something mystical. It is practical. This pranic energy is the life of the atom. We store it here (8th vertebra down). We know certain actions through which we inhale this pranic energy. And when we inhale this pranic energy, our pranic center gets awakened. The pranic center supplies the pranic energy to the pranic nerve. The pranic nerve supplies the pranic energy to a muscle which is responsible for the beat of the heart and that of the diaphragm. We call it "U" muscle, because it is shaped like the letter "u." This "U" muscle is responsible for all this life current in you which is automatic, beyond your control. You know what yogis do? They create pranic energy reservoirs in that cavity, and live on that reserve. This is what they do. They make that cavity, and live on that reserve. This is what they do. They make that cavity active with certain exercises. They know how to control the pranic energy or prana-vayu, the life current. That's one part of it. The second is apana, which eliminates everything. It has a connection with the Muladhara Chakra. That is where kundalini power lies."

  Siri Singh Sahib Ji
In the face of any great change, we confront three destructive impulses: to be alone and withdrawn, to deny or fantasize about the future that's coming, and to live with greed or scarcity instead of prosperity. This mantra counters these three tendencies and instills the mind with courage and caliber. Focus on the movement of the tongue and the sensation of the sound as it creates a time and space.Note the subtle difference in the meaning of the words "Siri" and "Maha." "Great (Siri)" still has a touch of finiteness; "Infinite (Maha)" has no finiteness or form.
Sit in Easy Pose with a straight spine and neck lock. Left hand in Gyan Mudra resting on the knee with the arm straight. Raise the right hand about 12 inches in front of the chest, holding the mantra sheet and concentration on the written words as you chant. If you don't have a mantra sheet, angle your hand is if you were reading a page with the palm open and the wrist straight. Apply Neck Lock and look down the nose to see the mantra sheet or the palm. When Yogi Bhajan gave this meditation, he asked us to focus the eyes, pay attention and not drift. If you do not have the page to read from, use the palm but continue to focus.

Continue for 27 minutes. Then, to finish:

For the next two minutes, place the hands on your heart and chant. Eyes are closed.

For one minute, whisper the mantra.

For the final thirty seconds, chant without the music.
