Meditation Slokas

Featured Practice, Meditation

These Sanskrit slokas are led by Swami Satchidananda and are from the Vedas and other sacred texts. Swami Satchidananda recommended chanting these prior to a meditation session to help connect to the
Guru-tattva principle. This principle teaches that there’s a capacity within Consciousness to awaken itself. When we’re able to connect more deeply with this principle, we’ll see everyone and everything as Guru. He explained, “All of nature and life is a book of knowledge. Draw silent lessons from all around you.”
Note: The meditation slokas are from the CD, “Integral Yoga Kirtan,” available for digital download from Shakticom.
