LivingNâm
- LivingNâm is mystical, mindblowing, it evokes awe and wonders but also it is very practical and common sense.
- It holds the key to transform your life into a life of beauty.
- It is the most natural!
- It is the way to what you already are!
Find attunement in your life!
Meditation is a tool and it is about stepping back. Only when you step back you can analyze your "Habitual Program of Perception"; these programs determine whether you are a slave or the master of your life. All are born as slaves, entirely dominated by an instinct that determines how you react and behave. It is the "Task of Human Living" to become selective.
To learn to distinguish the enslaving habitual programs of perception to which people are addicted, from the liberating programs by means of which you become masters over your own lives. A master is naturally in attunement and has with that attunement a natural compass for life.
Take a step back, overcome uncertainty, and become the master of your life!
This week, you will take a step back through meditation, you will receive powerful instruments and a very helpful vision on life that shows you the way to attunement. The week is inspiring on itself, a way to truly unwind and recharge your batteries but it can be more than just that. It can be the beginning of a new life, a different life, a beautiful life in the midst of all the turmoil of the world you can become a beacon.
You can overcome uncertainty and gain strength based on certainty beyond truths. Seeds can be sown this week, it's up to you to keep taking care of them and allowing these seeds to blossom.
Meet Yoginâm, the founder of LivingNâm
Yoginâm, a contemporary Sage and founder of LivingNâm, has achieved with his life a constant attunement in the "infinite unknowable" in which everything shares and finds a way to enter into an intimately close and at the same time infinitely wide relationship with this "infinite unknowable" what he has given the sound Abbah.
This quality means that people can experience healing, inspiration, guidance, and enlightenment in his presence. Some experience a sharing in his state of "Being" as the purest form of Love. Yoginâm took up the task to guide people towards life in attunement. Therefore, people who want are welcome to join in his state for a moment during a live online private HarpMood meditation. Experience is welcome but not at all needed.
