The music band "Sat Chit Ananda Express" performed Om Namah
Shivaya during a mantra concert at Yoga Vidya in Bad Meinberg,
Germany.

Om Namah Shivaya is a common greeting in yoga. "Om" is Om , the
all-encompassing. "Namah" means more or less "greeting to" and
"Shivaya" means "to Shiva". So Om Namah Shivaya means obeisance
to Shiva. But what does Shiva mean?

Shiva has many different meanings. "Shiva" literally means "the
loving, the kind". But it also means “the higher self” and “the
divine everywhere”. We can say "Om Namah Shivaya" and use that in
meditation or in kirtan. It is invoking the kind, the loving, the
higher self within us.

Mantra/ kirtan chanting is a wonderful practice to open the heart
and to feel divine presence
