Hi everyone,
“Nam Myoho Renge Kyo“!
(pronounced Nahm Mee-yo-hoh Rain-gay Key-oh)
This is a amazing chant.
It’s a great chant to say to help you connect and bring you Peace within.
Chanting this Buddhist chant while you are meditating can free you from suffering, along with the day’s stressors or challenges.
This is called the “Lotus Sutra” in Buddhism.
While chanting these words out loud, focus your attention on Love and Light.
The universe will hear your prayer request; just trust the outcome.
Your spiritual practice will send you exactly what you need at this time.
“Nam” is a Sanskrit word derived from “Namas”, which means Devotion or Worship.
Just like the Sanskrit word,
“Namaste”,
Which means,
“I Honor the Divinity Within…”
The Lotus Sutra contains Buddha’s most powerful words he shared with everyone towards the end of his life.
Nam myoho Renge Kyo,
was chanted over and over when Tina Turner needed the strength and willpower during her frightening years.
I saw “The Tina Turner Story” at The Bushnell on Tuesday, and it opened up with her chanting this powerful chant.
You felt the vibration played out in The Bushnell’s sound system and it delivered.
The feeling of those words…
I have used this chant for some situations and it really works.
Tina Turner’s life story on the stage was delivered with so much energy, enthusiasm, talent, and strength- just like her.
It was a fabulous tribute to her.
I was also happy that Tina was able to see her story up on the big stage.
It was delivered so beautifully and the energy was contagious; you wanted to get up and dance.
I sell her most recent book “I Tina”. It’s her own words and she delivers her story eloquently.
The book also touches on this Buddhist chant which gave her Peace and Enlightenment.
We all need more of that in our life and the world.
We all have a Buddha in us.
Just share it…
This Thursday, April 20th, is the new moon.
Set your intentions and try to add a little Nam Myoho Renge Kyo to them to send more Peace and Enlightenment into your practice and the world.
The Moon is in Taurus,
-Trustworthy
-Kind
-Practical
Also just a note: from April 21 to May 14, Mercury is in retrograde.
Just go with the flow, just like bamboo. It’s good for the soul if you’re trying to get a project started, finished or something done. Just hang tight until we are out of retrograde.
Less stress and more fun…
Saturday the 22nd is also Earth Day! Spend some time outdoors (weather permitting!)
Gratitude,
Meg
