Listen to the sound and feel it working to transform your life or chant along with the video to meditate with this ancient mantra.
The Sanskrit word “Soma” means “nectar”, specifically the divine nectar or “amrita” described in ancient Vedic stories, also referred to as the elixir of life or nectar of the gods. Soma is also a name for the Moon in Vedic astrology, which signifies the mind and mental peace.
This mantra can protect the mind from stress, anxiety, worries and especially calm down anger or intensity which has gotten out of control, to give you the inner stillness required to experience tranquility and satisfaction. Chanting this mantra is like pouring cooling liquid over the brain which has the power to counteract negative emotions. It is especially good for people who practice yoga or other spiritual processes which have a tendency to generate internal heat (both physical and metaphysical) which can manifest as irritability.
