TODAY'S LEARNING
Heart Chakra Opening Mantra

We have seven energy centers that align our spine and head, and when opened up, allow for a vastly expansive human experience. Sanskrit refers to the heart chakra as anahata, and it is associated with human compassion and connection.

Engaging in this body's energy center can help us heal our own sadness and grief while also allowing us to experience intense love.

This specific mantra is frequently used as part of Kundalini yoga, a practice that promotes the opening of our chakras and the rising of the energy from our spine to our head, which opens all of the energy centers in our bodies and helps us connect with the Divine.

What “Ong So Hung” Means

This mantra's meaning is also straightforward but incredibly complex. It could almost be considered onomatopoeic in that the openness and meditative qualities are inherent in the sounds of this mantra. It seems to mean what it says!

You can break down the components of this mantra into the following translations:

Ong, also known as God's creative consciousness

So hung — I am that Ong so hung can be interpreted as to say “I am one with God, the creative consciousness.”

Note: This mantra is unique in that it uses a different version of the common mantra om, instead of pronouncing it as ong. In order to activate our experience, this slight alteration in such a widely used Sanskrit word presses on receptors in the back of the mouth and modifies our breathing.

Benefits

Sanskrit mantra chanting is always effective, but ong so hung is special in how it affects the energy in our bodies. In other words, it is not just a mantra for your mind, but the energy that is contained in our whole bodies.

The mantra "ong so hung" is said to deepen your experience and enlarge your awareness by engaging your body's heart center. The expanded awareness you can create with this mantra opens us up for a deepening in our human experience.

Your physical heart chakra is closely linked to both your mental and physical experiences of compassion, as well as to your own spiritual development.

FOOD FOR THE SOUL
Ayurveda Summer Recipes: Curried Plantains Quesadilla

This recipe will open you up to a new perspective on the culinary possibilities of plantain. This versatile member of the banana family is often used in place of potatoes due to its starch content and relatively neutral flavor. Not as sweet or soft as the bananas we are accustomed to, plantains can be easily incorporated in savory dishes. They will add substance and fuel to your meal, leaving you feeling satisfied and energized. For best results, cook plantains (they can be too firm and taste quite bitter when eaten raw) and ensure they are ripe. They can feel cold and dry in the gut due to their astringent nature, but once they absorb the oily qualities of ghee and warmth of spices in the recipe they become easier to digest and satisfying. Add a fresh ginger, cilantro and lime sauce to lighten and freshen the meal.

Ingredients

1/4 c CILANTRO

1/4 tsp CUMIN

1/2 tsp CURRY POWDER

2 tbsp GHEE

1-inch GINGER (FRESH)

2 c GREEN PLANTAIN

2 whole LIME

1 c MASA

1 pinch RED PEPPER FLAKES (CHILI)

1/3 lbs SPINACH

1/4 tsp TURMERIC

Instructions

Notes: Use pre-made burrito/tortilla wrap for a shorter preparation time.

1. Ensure plantains are ripe for a sweeter effect, or unripe for less sweet and more savory effect. Peel, then chop into bite-sized chunks. Make a paste of the spices by mixing spices with a few drops of water.

2. Heat ghee and fry plantain on medium heat until golden brown. Add a little dab of ghee at end, add spices, and fry for a few seconds only. Then mix spices with the plantain.

3. Remove the plantain and wilt spinach leaves in the same pan.

4. Blend juice of lime, cilantro, and fresh ginger into a light sauce.

5. Take a tortilla wrap and place it in a clean, non stick frying pan.

6. Over one half, spread a layer of curried plantain, wilted spinach and a drizzle of the lime sauce. Mash the plantains slightly.

7. Fold the tortilla in half and heat on medium for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly golden and crispy. Cut into wedges.

About: In The Way of Integrity, Beck presents a four-stage process that anyone can use to find integrity, and with it, a sense of purpose, emotional healing, and a life free of mental suffering. Much of what plagues us-people pleasing, staying in stale relationships, negative habits-all point to what happens when we are out of touch with what truly makes us feel whole.

Inspired by The Divine Comedy, Beck uses Dante's classic hero's journey as a framework to break down the process of attaining personal integrity into small, manageable steps. She shows how to read our internal signals that lead us towards our true path, and to recognize what we actually yearn for versus what our culture sells us.
