This Track is a dedicated to our beloved Teacher & Master Swami Sivananda
“Om Namo Bhagavate Sivanandaya” consists of four words: Om means Om, cosmic sound. Namas means “reverence to”, which becomes “Namo” before “Bhagavate”. Bhagavate means “divine” also means “the manifestation of the divine” also means “venerable”. And so it is: “Homage to Sivananda, Swami Sivananda, who is a manifestation of the Divine.” Or: “Homage to the venerable Swami Sivananda.” Sivananda is also called Shiva, which is God or love, and Ananda - joy. One could also say: “Homage to divine love and joy.”
“Om Namo Bhagavate Sivanandaya” is aimed at Swami Sivananda, but is also aimed at love and joy. This mantra can be repeated in addition to your normal mantra whenever you want to connect with Swami Sivananda, whenever you particularly need guidance from the Master. Many people use their main mantra simply to feel and experience God, and when they need guidance or help in a specific situation, they turn to the guru. And in our tradition that is Swami Sivananda.
