Voor vrede en ontspanning. Meditatie 'Kirtan sohila de musical'. In de avond.
Wat?
We chanten:
De 'Kirtan sohila de musical'.
De versie van Snatam Kaur.
In de avondschemer (Sandhya Vela).
Om praktische redenen kies ik voor het tijdstip van 20:00-21:00 uur.

Avondschemer?
Dit is wat de Kundalini yoga zegt over mediteren in de avondschemer:
The early evening, at twilight, is also a special time for meditation. This is a time when the sun’s rays do not touch the earth; rather, they slice through the atmosphere at a 60-degree angle. It is neither day nor night, and there is just a glow of light. You will notice, in both the morning and the evening, birds are the most active. In the morning is the Amrit Vela, and in the evening, it is called Sandhya Vela – twilight time.

Waarom?
Voor vrede en ontspanning.

Wanneer?
Donderdagavond van 20:00 – 21:00 uur.
Gratis of op basis van donatie.
Zelf zie ik het als mijn ‘seva’ (vrijwilligerswerk).

Via Zoom.us
Georganiseerd door Annie Sarab Shakti Douma

De Kirtan So(hi)la?
De Kirtan so(hi)la is een gedicht.
Inhoud in mijn bewoording is: 'Iets wat groter is dan ik, beschermt me' en 'vrede'.
Het chanten van de Kirtan so(hi)la geeft mij het gevoel: 'het is goed zoals het is', het ontspant me.

Bij het chanten van b.v. de 'Kirtan sohila', gaat het over de klanken.
Die klanken kan je fonetisch opschrijven. In iedere taal ziet die fonetische weerslag er anders uit.

Hieronder volgt de Nederlandse fonetische tekst van de 'Kirtan sohila', zoals gechant door Snatam Kaur.

Snatam Kaur over de Kirtan so(hi)la.
https://www.ikyta.org/articles/golden-gift-peaceful-sleep-kirtan-sohila
By Snatam Kaur
I have been listening to, or reciting Kirtan Sohila my whole life. My first conscious memories of this prayer were when my stepfather, Sat Santokh, would read Kirtan Sohila to me every night before going to sleep when I was in my early teens.
I am grateful beyond any words I can come up with that my stepfather did this. There was a purity and love in his offering that helped me to connect to Kirtan Sohila in a deep way. Night after night as the words were recited to me, they penetrated into my heart. It was at this time that my love for this prayer was sewn into my heart.
Then a few years later as a full-fledged teenager, I learned the Gurmukhi language, the sacred language of the Sikhs, and began reciting it myself. It was just something I did every night. Pretty soon I had it memorized. I continued with this practice throughout my twenties and into my thirties. My practice with it stayed very strong, although at times I would just recite it in my mind. And there were even days when I missed reciting it all together.
It wasn't until we had our daughter that the practice of reciting it out loud every night no matter what, came back. It worked almost every night to put our new baby to sleep. That is when I reconnected with this prayer in a very deep way once again. I noticed that the pure recitation of the words stopped the mind and put me into a state of meditation, of no thoughts, of the energy I felt of Guru Nanak. There was no more up, no more down, no more this, no more that. A stillness, and a meditative state was all that was left. An ability to let go of the day, and go to sleep took over. For our daughter it was just the right vibration to allow her to go to sleep without fail...every night! As new parents this discovery gave us the golden gift of much needed sleep.
The practice of reciting it out loud is very important to create this energy. That is why we included a recitation track on our album, Evening Prayer.
In order to receive all of the benefits of the practice it is best to do it correctly in the way that it was originally taught. Here are the basics: Get yourself ready for bed. Sit up straight in bed. Cover your head. Recite Kirtan Sohila and then go to sleep! You can just play the CD for the whole night as well. We made a big effort to keep the music in a very peaceful way so that one could do just this. This will keep a peaceful and meditative vibration in your room as you sleep. If you cannot sleep with music playing at night (like me!) you can just play the music as you are doing your "getting ready for bed" routine. And then do the recitation right before bed.
One of the most powerful things about this prayer is that it gives you a very deep teaching to your subconscious. All Gurbani does this. But, because this is recited before going to sleep it can work at a very deep level and set the vibration not only for your night, but for your life. I encourage you to take a look at the meaning of this prayer in its entirety. We have included the meaning in our CD booklet.

Over de 'Kirtan Sohola' uit een andere bron:
Kirtan Sohila – is the most harmonious naad ever uttered. Recite it at bedtime, just before going to sleep at night. It brings clarity of mind, preserves your night, and brings a beautiful dawn. It prevents nightmares and creates a shield of protection. It multiplies the aura to such sensitivity of protection that it eliminates any negativity for miles and miles around you. When you are endangered by any direct or indirect source, and when you want to surround yourself with the protection of the entire magnetic field of the earth, recite Kirtan Sohila. At the end of life in this human body, Kirtan Sohila is recited to protect the soul on its journey to its True Home with God.
