Let's do now a yoga nidra session with a mantra AUM. As the Mandukya Upanishad tells us, The mantra OM or AUM is made of four parts. A, U, N and an unsung part. And these four parts correspond to the four states of consciousness. A corresponds to wakefulness. U corresponds to dream. N corresponds to the dreamless sleep which is the state of yoga nidra. And that part which is unsaid corresponds to the state of turya, The state beyond states. In this meditation we will allow AUM to guide us from the waking state in which we are now into the dreamless state. This meditation is best listened to with headphones. So let's begin. Lie down on your mat in either Shavasana, The corpse position, Or the Tibetan lying position. If you choose to lie in Shavasana, Lie on your back, The legs slightly apart at the width of the hips, The arms to the sides of the body, The palms are facing upwards. If you have lower back pains, You can use some cushions underneath your knees. And you can have a small cushion underneath your head, But I recommend to do this lying completely flat on a mat if you can. If you choose the lying position, Then men should lie on their right side with the left up and closing their right nostril and slightly bending the legs. Women should perform it lying on the left side with their right side up and closing the left nostril. Let's practice now the 61-point relaxation. During this process, We need to remain aware. As we shift the attention between the points, Just make sure that you stay with your body, That you don't follow thoughts, And that you don't drift into sleep. Alright, Let's start. We bring our attention to the first point, Which is the point between the eyebrows. Feel as if there is a relaxing vibration emanating from this point, Relaxing the rest of your face. Bring your attention now to the second point, The throat center, And feel the relaxing vibrations it emanates. Bring your attention now to the third point, The right shoulder, And keep your attention here. Bring now your attention to the fourth point, Inside of the right elbow, And feel the relaxing vibrations it emanates. Bring your attention now to the fifth point, Inside of the right wrist.

Now shift your attention to the twenty-eighth point, The middle of the right breast. Move your awareness to the twenty-ninth point, Back to the heart center. Feel the vibrations of relaxation emanating from this point, Relaxing your chest. Shift your attention to the thirtieth point, The middle of the left breast. Now shift your attention to the thirty-first point, Back to the heart center. Shift your attention now to the thirty-second point, The navel center. Feel the vibrations emanating from this location. Shift your awareness now to the thirty-third point, The center of the pubic bone. The thirty-fourth point now, The right hip.

Shift your attention now to the sixty-first and final point, The point between the eyebrows. Remain with your attention in this point. Feel the entire field of points and their interconnection within you. See that you are very alert and at the same time deeply relaxed. You are very alert and at the same time deeply relaxed. You are very alert and at the same time deeply relaxed. Now, We are going to do a process of listening to the recitation of the mantra AUM. As you listen to the recitation, I'm going to ask you to do a visualization of the mantra AUM, Being written in a space inside of your being. In parallel, I will ask you to do a kind of sensorial visualization, To imagine a feeling rather than an image of the different states of consciousness. These two visualizations will meet together in the yoga nidra state. I want you to visualize the symbol AUM. It looks like the numeral three with a tail, A half moon above this tail, And a dot above this half moon. As you listen to the mantra AUM being emitted and feeling the vibrations inside of your being, You can see how the vibrations are forming the letter AUM, Part by part. AUM The A is forming the shape of the numeral three. The OO sound makes the tail, And the vibrating M creates the half moon and the dot. The dot then begins burning into a flame that burns and dissipates your visualization into nothingness. Let the M sound continue. After your visualization has disappeared into the nothingness, Remain in the M sound vibrating inside the nothingness. You can visualize this AUM hovering in space in the center of your chest, Or that the AUM starts forming inside of your head with the sound Aa, Descends through the throat as the tail gets added to the symbol three in the sound OO, And reaches your heart as the M sound begins, As it dissipates into the nothingness and abides there. All three of these versions, Visualizing the AUM in infinite space, Inside your heart or descending in the body, Are all good. In the next recitation of the mantra, The visualization begins again until it dissipates once more into the nothingness, And so it will continue. AUM AUM AUM Now, In addition to this visualization of the symbol AUM, We introduce the final element. As you hear the Aa sound and see the Aa part of the mantra forming, Feel that you are in the waking world. Feel that there is a world outside your body and that you are lying on the mat performing this exercise. As you hear the sound OO, Feel that you are in a dream. There is no body, Or you may be hovering above it. Finally, In the sound MMM, This too disappears. You have no thoughts. You have gone beyond it all. You are in pure nothingness. Itat Tvam Asi I am that I am this AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM AUM Thank you very much for your participation.
