There is something magical when we let go, when we do not try to control everything that is happening – not just outside of us, but also inside. And in this freedom emerges that inner peace and happiness and total bliss. We become more creative, as we realise that we are just a medium to through with creativity expresses itself, and then you have access to that infinite divine creativity. This is what this mantra is all about… about letting go of whatever we can and can’t control. It is not about trying, and working hard … it is all about aligning yourself and your purpose with your highest truth.
Merā mujẖ mėh kicẖẖ nahī jo kicẖẖ hai so ṯerā.
Nothing within me is mine. Whatever there is, its Yours
Ŧerā ṯujẖ kao saupaṯe kiā lāgai merā.
I offer you what is already yours, I am letting go
Waheguru Waheguru Jap Waheguru
I chant in ecstasy… waheguru…waheguru
“Waheguru” is a term that signifies the wondrous enlightener, the divine teacher within and beyond. Chanting this mantra is an expression of awe and reverence for the divine presence in everything. It is a way to elevate the spirit, connect with the infinite, and experience the bliss that comes with this connection. The repetitive chanting helps in calming the mind, opening the heart, and aligning oneself with the divine frequency.
The Power of Letting Go
Letting go is a powerful practice in many spiritual traditions. It is often easier said than done, but the rewards are profound. By letting go, we free ourselves from the chains of attachment, fear, and control. We allow life to flow through us without resistance, and in this flow, we find peace and harmony.
How to Practice Letting Go
- Meditation: Regular meditation helps in quieting the mind and reducing the need for control. It allows us to observe our thoughts and feelings without attachment.
- Chanting Mantras: Using mantras like “Waheguru” can be a powerful tool in the practice of letting go. The vibrations of the mantra can help in aligning our energy with the divine.
- Gratitude: Practicing gratitude shifts our focus from what we lack to what we have, promoting a sense of abundance and reducing the need to cling to things.
- Mindfulness: Being mindful of our actions, thoughts, and emotions in each moment helps us to recognize when we are trying to control and provides the opportunity to release and surrender.
- Trust in the Divine: Developing a trust in the divine plan and the universe’s workings helps in letting go of the need to control outcomes. It is about believing that everything happens for a reason and for our highest good.
