Ra Ma Da Sa

The Siri Gaitri Mantra, more commonly known as Ra Ma Da Sa, is a Kundalini Yoga mantra for healing that holds within it eight sounds that stimulate the Kundalini flow (the life force essence) within the central channel of the spine. Chanting this mantra helps to align one’s vibration with the frequency of the Divine to heal the self or send healing energy to others.

Ra invokes the energy of the sun.
Ma invokes the energy of the moon and alignment with receptivity.
Da invokes the grounding energy of the Earth.
Sa invokes the energy of Infinity extending upwards and outwards.
Sa chanted a second time, draws the energy of Infinity within.
Say honors the all-encompassing Thou, the Divine.
So invokes the energy of merger.
Hung is the Infinite, the vibrating real. It is the essence of creation.
(So Hung together means, I am Thou.)

Ra Ma Da Saa
Saa Say So Hung
