Abaahu (wide shouldered) purushaakaaram ( the one in the form of a person: representing Vishnu Bhagavan); Shankha ( conch) , chakra (the disc) dhaarenam (the one who wore/ possesses) : the one who has broad shoulders and has Shankam and Chakram in both his hands.
I will never ever forget the very first time i heard opening mantra in my first Ashtanga class. I was very excited for my first Ashtanga lesson as everybody was saying it is not an easy thing. But when i was chanting i started to smile and that was like someone pouring a kind of waterish, fairy tailish sparkling dust upon my head. And in the end i was full with energy
Just want to say how very much I like this rendition. It is because it is being sung with a beautiful rhythm rather than recited as lifeless prose. Some people have criticized the pronunciations. But it sounds so very beautiful and for me is the way I wish to learn.
Hearing the first time. Man, it’s difficult. But looks like it gets easier eventually like everything else you keep working on. Can’t wait to come back later when I can sing it out loud just as smoothly as you do. Thank you for the inspiration! 😊 🙏🏽
Wow, it all started with me looking for calm music to accompany my supper and a glass of wine after a long day of working. I went from nature yoga music, to yoga lessons in the nature and then finally this beautiful mesmerizing mantra. Now I'm on replay, chanting along with you and feeling blissful, thank you!
Pranamami pathaanjalim : here refers to Pathaanjali as such Guru who is through his yoga representing and has become a representation of none other than God through his Yoga Shakthi. It also represents that Shiva and Shakthi have this intertwined in that representation of yogic energy.
Sahasrara ( the crown Chakra among the 7 chakras) sirathaaam ( upon the head) Shwetam (here the meaning can be ‘White’ which means it is the union of the 7 colors, or the 7 points of energies at the crown chakra; it can also mean, which I believe the foremost, to be ‘true wisdom/ Aathma Gnyanam). Gnyana devatha/ goddess is Saraswathi devi who is thus depicted in White.
Actually, it's not all Shakara's staff. The first 2 lines are from the Yogataravali. But the other ones are not. The original yogataravali says: "There are in the world 125.000 absorptions spoken of by Shiva. We regard ONLY samadhi on the Nada to be the worthiest". And then it goes on praising the meditation on the Nada, i.e. the anahata sound. Pretty much like tibetan yoga inner tantra meditation.
Thank You for sharing. It is lovely. Would you perhaps have a visual or could you tell me where to find a picture of this divine serpent in the form of a man with a conch shell, wheel and sword? Or would you know where I could fine more information to dive deeper into this mantra? Thank you.
The pauses, prosody and phrasing are all errored. I am sorry to say that but it is. The first line should be : Vande Gurunaam charanaaravindham ( meaning is : Pranamam to Guru’s lotus feet)
are these mantras specific to different yoga styles? if you have the knowledge, would you be so kind to advise , post for example Hatha, Vinjasa yoga ones? That would be awesome thank you so much
Yes..in Hinduism u describe different gods and speciality through mantra chanting..same for different yoga philosophies..here he is chanting about guru(teacher).. om Shanti...namah sivay
Vande Gurunam Charanarvinde= I bow to the Gurus feet which are like lotus Sandarshitswatmasukhavbodhe= Who show us our true self and awaken the happiness (within us) ; the one who can show you the true peaceful athma that you really are. Nishreyase Janglikaymane= who upon thinking of bestows good upon us, the one who is like a mani= gem / Pearl. Samsaara = cycle of existence Haaalahala ( it is not halahala) = deadly poison Moaha =means an illusion shantaye= will subside the anguish to provide peace. Samsaara Haala hala moaha shaanthye: This stance means: He is the one who can pacify and ease you out of this poisonous bonds of illusion of samsaara. The illusion is that we are the real person representing relationships with things and people and this physical world where as we are pure souls, energy bodies taking up the shape of the cup we are poured into. But the mind learns patterns quickly through observations, experiences and belief systems rather than passing through time imparting from within, we collect from out and engrave something into realities, that are not always real but relative.
Thank you Joey! Where did you learn the pronunciation? I mean, some lines don't sound like how they're written at all, and it's not like there are any Sanskrit courses out there since it's a dead language, so... How do you learn to pronounce it? =)
Translation by Tim Miller I respectfully bow to the lotus feet of my teacher, who teaches the knowledge of the Self that awakens us to great happiness, who is the Jungle Physician and dispeller of the poison of conditioned existence. Taking the form of a man up to the hands, holding a conch, a discus, and a sword and having a thousand heads of white light, Patanjali, I bow to you.
@@GregorizZ Sanskrit is beautiful and one of the most ancient languages known to man.... Sanskrit mantras are believed to have vibrations which give positive vibes.... Incorrect pronunciation of the mantras defeats the purpose..... Watch Gaia Sanskrit channel for correct pronunciation by a foreigner....
Yoga (union) transcends all language. Creating distinctions like correct/incorrect and positive/negative is essentially the opposite of union, and a distraction from the actual practice. Thanks for the link, I'll make sure to watch the video. Have a nice day :)
@@GregorizZ I am from India.... Now I was not referring to yoga.... But from what I know Americans have commercialised yog... Practises that were perfected for thousands of years cannot be just modified at will..... The yoga poses have to be exactly as described in the scriptures.... Poses or asanas are just one of the eight steps in ashtanga yog.....

Excellent, this is the actual verses, not what the person in this video recited. That recitation is totally inaccurate.
Abaahu (wide shouldered) purushaakaaram ( the one in the form of a person: representing Vishnu Bhagavan); Shankha ( conch) , chakra (the disc) dhaarenam (the one who wore/ possesses) : the one who has broad shoulders and has Shankam and Chakram in both his hands.

Fabulous! Better Sanskrit then even my elder relatives! Joey is my Ashtanga Yoga teacher in Leeds - best teacher by miles!
Thanks Joey for cutting through the fog of my illusion with your clear teaching of this opening chant. Om. Namaste.
I love this, and also love your happy calm presence Joey, especially now.

Thank you this is the next chant I will memorize.

are these mantras specific to different yoga styles? if you have the knowledge, would you be so kind to advise , post for example Hatha, Vinjasa yoga ones? That would be awesome thank you so much
FlatEarth Photography yes of course. in Kundalini we have many , the ones used in each class are Sat nam./ Om namo guru dev namo
Yes..in Hinduism u describe different gods and speciality through mantra chanting..same for different yoga philosophies..here he is chanting about guru(teacher).. om Shanti...namah sivay
I feel uncomfortable doing this feel like the room is looking at me cold sweat
❤
What does it mean?
I just summoned a demon but that's okay he's super chill
I really appreciate the effort of chanting mantras. But this is not a Mantra. This is a Shloka.
Very good thank you, I did noticed you have a little spelling error on: SAHASRA SHIRASAM SVETAM, the H is missing!
🙏
Vande Gurunam Charanarvinde= I bow to the Gurus feet which are like lotus
Sandarshitswatmasukhavbodhe= Who show us our true self and awaken the happiness (within us) ; the one who can show you the true peaceful athma that you really are.
Nishreyase Janglikaymane= who upon thinking of bestows good upon us, the one who is like a mani= gem / Pearl.
Samsaara = cycle of existence
Haaalahala ( it is not halahala) = deadly poison
Moaha =means an illusion
shantaye= will subside the anguish to provide peace.
Samsaara Haala hala moaha shaanthye: This stance means: He is the one who can pacify and ease you out of this poisonous bonds of illusion of samsaara.

you learn from listening to someone who knows
@@mononoke85 I will look into that. Thanks!
What is the meaning of this words...is difficult to repeat something that you have no idea about meaning.

It would be really helpful if you had actual written words please
the m is pronounced as an n in the gurunam ... so your pronunciation is a bit off?
This is not how Pattabhi recited it. And why did you added an R in jangalikayamane?
Predrag Nikolić he also said "Sandra shita" instead of "sandarshita". Indeed, how so? I wonder myself...
Do I have permission to use this mantra for a piece of music that I'm working on??
aaron winter no
Amazing!!! Do you have Snapchat???
I just can't remember beyond first sentence , how many times do I need to repeat to get it.
?
usually 17 times.

Nice Joey. Pronunciation needs to be worked on. Take the help of a scholar👍
Aap galat uchcharan kar rahe hain,aapko nhi pata ki iske nuksan ho sakte hain
