Sangeet's Message About Tonight's Journey to Brahm Prakash Meditation
Dearest Family,
Tonight’s meditation gives us an exquisite experience of victory – victory over stress and anxiety, fear in all forms, depression, doubts and insecurities. It is a balm for the mind, a support for conscious action, a friend to carry you through the most difficult times. It instills courage, fearlessness and brings victory. It gives self-command and self-grace.
So I have experienced its bounties over many many years. Kundalini Master Yogi Bhajan said it worked for him too, even given his challenges teaching thousands of students. “To be in America and to have Americans as students, even God sometimes doubts what he created!”
The Master went on to explain this mantra’s affects. “Chatara Chakara Varti” is the mantra for the heart center, it gives direct energy to it. When you are sinking, if you know this mantra and can sing it, you can totally recuperate yourself.”
A few years ago, when one of this Dharma’s leading ragis/singers, Satkirin Kaur Khalsa (satkirin.com), created and sang this version of it in her album “Lightness of Being,” (available on her website) my heart rose and chanted with her. That’s why this is the version of this powerful mantra we will be chanting to tonight.
This mantra comes from the last four lines of Guru Gobind Singh’s powerful prayer, Jaap Sahib.
Mantra
Chattra Chakkra Vartee, Chattra Chakkra Bhugatay
Suyumbhav Subhang Sarab Daa Sarab Jugtay
Dukaalang Pranaasee Dayaalang Saroopay
Sadaa Ung Sungay Abhangang Bibhootay
Translation
Thou art pervading in all the four directions,
The Enjoyer in all the four directions.
Thou art self – illumined and united with all.
Destroyer of bad times, embodiment of mercy.
Thou art ever within us.
Thou art the everlasting giver of undestroyable power.
Asana
Sit in easy pose or in a chair with a straight spine, chin tucked back in “neck lock.”
Mudra
Hands are in Gyan Mudra resting on the knees.
Bless all of you who chant with us tonight! Bless all of you who join in from afar! Bless all who seek the mercy and support of our Maker!
Humbly yours,
Sangeet
Note: The Romanized spelling / pronunciation guide varies quite a bit. In addition to this spelling “Chatara Chakara Varti” used on Satkirin Khalsa's CD, it is also commonly spelled “Chatara Chakara Vartee” and “Chatra Chakra Vartee.”

Compatibility and Support Information for Computers / Smart Phone / Tablets
Please note that on some computers, phones and tablets the video can take up to 60 seconds to start (it is buffering the live video stream).
Video support for mobile devices ("smart" phones and tablets) is often iffy because they use the newer and currently less compatible "HTML5" video instead of "Flash."
Desktop/laptop computers (Windows, Mac and Linux) work best because they come with Adobe Flash Player. Please check that you have a very recent version of Flash. Video support for mobile devices, however, is often iffy. Mac users often have problems with the built-in browser "Safari". Install Google's "Chrome" browser or Mozilla's "Firefox" browser and use either one of those instead. (The difference between those two mostly has to do with privacy -with Chrome, being from Google, you surrender all your privacy [same as using Safari] and Firefox, being from the Mozilla Foundation, you retain much of your privacy.)
Android Smart Phone and Tablet users -In the recent versions of Andriod the built-in browser is called "Chrome." It is most compatible and usually works very well. If the video is not playing correctly, then there is not really anything that can be done other than try a desktop computer if one is nearby -that may work better for you.
Firefox-for-Andriod (free and found in the Google Play store) usually works well. We personally use Firefox-for-Android on our Android devices rather than the built-in brower (for a number of reasons including better privacy and also better compatibility with HTML 5 video). So you might want to give it a try!
iPads and iPhones purchased within the past year or so usually work fine with the video. Older versions often struggle to keep a reliable video connection and there really isn't a way to fix it.
In general, though, if the video stops and there is just a black box without a big "Play" button in the middle of it, "refreshing" your browser usually re-starts the video. Unfortunately, interruptions during live broadcasts are usually unavoidable. However, using a computer / smart phone / tablet less than 2 years old can minimized interruptions and in some cases avoid them all together. It is just the nature of this technology, but it will improve in the coming years.

Dearly Beloved Healing Source Family,
My heart overflows with such profound gratitude to all of you – to those who helped us organize my wonderful 80th birthday party, to all who contributed and supported the Seva Project in creating that great Scholarship Fund for me, to all who attended the party, to all who wrote to me on Facebook and Instagram or by email and to all of you who have put me in their prayers.
“To give is to live and to live is to give” is a line from a song we often sang when prompted by the Master, Yogi Bhajan. So important to remember that message. He told us so any times, “Giving is the only living.”
It has long been known by the ancients that our highest wealth comes from what we give – our selfless deeds of giving and helping others – and they are all written in the Akashic Records, “the good book” as many know it. These accounts are never forgotten. Those written there are worthy of eternal praise. These deeds help to open the doorway of the heavens to each of us.
So many of you who attended the party wished me a long life – to live to 100 or 120. I smiled and responded, “I wish to live only as long as I am useful and able to serve others.”
I am humbled by your love and caring. Kudos to you organizers – Judi & Jon (Devi Chandra Kaur and Devi Chander Singh), Siri Narayan Kaur, Tarn Devi Kaur, Kewal Kaur, Cheryl Coldwell, and all your helpers. The winning team of organizers for the venue were superb – Stacey and Judith.
Our emcees did a great job, real pros – Tanaya (Tara Kaur) and hubby Josh (Subagh Jot Singh).
Our presenters were the best – Sarb Nam Kaur from Connecticut, Dr. Siri Chand Kaur Khalsa, Chaplain Amar Atma Singh Khalsa, and Ronee Kipnes (Amarjot Kaur).
I am so grateful to Amarjot who set up the magnificent scholarship fund for me through The Seva Project. Any fund-raiser she does, please do your best to support it. The funds I received will be used to edit, design and produce The Blessings Code Numerology book – finally!
Kudos also to our crack photography team – Hari Nam Singh on the lead video-camera and Yaakoff Molho on backup camera, and dear Jon Heinrich (Devi Chander Singh) giving us great still shots. Soram Singh/Manny Lode handling specialized sound needs so well and Matthew Klejwa become the master of lighting!
Now let’s back up from the present moment and give love and hugs to the many who joined us at the party who were also critically important a year ago in my long hospital stay, post-surgery recovery and return to health.
They were almost all there at my 80th birthday party. I might not have been at that party had it not been for them!
Among those closest for long hours every day were Amar Atma Singh and Dr. Siri Chand who were powerful in their knowledge and medical support, beloved Sadhana Kaur whose presence was so precious, and special helper Danell (Karampal Kaur). Amarjot Kaur was with me daily and her spirit and presence of mind greeted medical staff and helped me make an important decision about rehab.
Lending her medical acumen from afar was Dr. Arjan Deva Kaur from Corpus Christi, Texas – also present at the party with her husband Dr. Sachraj Singh.
Also important at that trying time in the hospital – and he was with us at the birthday party – was my long-time dear friend from our New York days of the ‘80s, Jerome Landau (Hari Inder Singh). He brought blessings of peaceful sleep one difficult night with the Buddhist relics he placed on my crown. And then he set up the fund to which so many of your contributed – that helped me get through the lengthy recovery.
Ever present day and night - sleeping next to me in the most uncomfortable chairs! – was my dear husband, Hari Nam Singh. He even made Yogi Tea and kitcherie for the guests who came to visit me. I make it day by day with him by my side.
Reiki Masters I have trained who live afar also came to the party – they made a critical difference during those post-surgery weeks – Dhanwant Kaur from Long Island, Nimrita Kaur from Oklahoma and Sarb Nam Kaur from Connecticut. Contributing to the local-based Reiki healing team was also Reiki Master Ardas Kaur.
My beloved Osteopath team was also there – Dr. Susan Del Sordi, Dr. Amar Kaur and Dr. Melchiorra Mangiaracina.
Others in my family who brought me cheer at the hospital and who were also present at the party included Meher Kaur Khalsa and Shant Kaur Khalsa, our always caring Jaslean Idnani, and Siri Chand’s dear mother, Ann Roberts from Denver.
I rush to thank also several who were important in my hospital stay but who could not attend the party – among them, Saibhung Kaur, Jaskaram Singh, Narinder Kaur, and Sat Nam Kaur/Rebecca.
Present at the party from my surgical team was Dr. Betsy Kantor, my so-caring anesthesiologist. Not able to be present was my brilliant neuro-surgeon Dr. Vikram Kumar and my crack pulmonologist, Dr. Bridget Ronan who consulted then and follows up with me even now.
From my viewpoint, the saints in the heavens sent these earthly saints to carry me through those long weeks of challenge. They continue their support to this day. I am grateful to you all! We all know the expression, “It takes a village.” Well I can surely say it takes a country, and it takes the heavens pulling for each of us as well.
At the close of my talk at the party, I was overwhelmed by your standing ovation. I thank all of you and pray that you realize how the saints in the heavens that support me are here for each of you. That is the real truth, the take-away I pray all of you got!
You are all gifts to me and you are all gifts on this earth!
