Chanting And OAM: My Poem: Chanting And Spam
Chanting and OAM
The best kind of sitting meditation for me is chanting. I experienced it for the first time in the temple in Japan where the mornings started with listening to the monk chanting for half an hour, and I just went into nothingness and got so relaxed. After a little while I began to practice chanting too both using OAM and chanting the heart sutra. I did not get good enough to get the full effect from the heart sutra but the OAM is one of my favourites. I learned to do the OAM the traditional way, where you do it in your own pace, and you deliberate start the sound in the lower belly and then move it up all the way to the head and using the belly muscles to create the sound which gives a very beautiful, unstrained sound.

The same goes for brain wave music, except it is instrumental music in a certain frequencies, which affect the brain waves and therefore the brain waves will adapt to the music.

I have also tried massages, where the focus is purely on pressure and massaging the muscles where there are tension and since I am under-sensitive to pain it can be tricky to realise when it gets to hard. If it is too hard my muscles tightens up, and gives the practitioner a rough time with a lot of hard work. Some years ago I had a massage where I had so many bruises on my body afterwards and especially on my buttocks, that I had problems sitting for three
