Mahavatar Babaji Mantra (108 Repetitions)

Om Babaji Namaha

Disciple Lahiri Mahasaya talking to his Guru Mahavatar Babaji about Kriya Yoga:
"'Angelic guru, as you have already favored mankind by resurrecting the lost Kriya art, will you not increase that benefit by relaxing the strict requirements for discipleship?' I gazed beseechingly at Babaji. 'I pray that you permit me to communicate Kriya to all seekers, even though at first they cannot vow themselves to complete inner renunciation. The tortured men and women of the world, pursued by the threefold suffering,7 need special encouragement. They may never attempt the road to freedom if Kriya initiation be withheld from them.'

"'Be it so. The divine wish has been expressed through you.' With these simple words, the merciful guru banished the rigorous safeguards that for ages had hidden Kriya from the world. 'Give Kriya freely to all who humbly ask for help.'

"After a silence, Babaji added, 'Repeat to each of your disciples this majestic promise from the Bhagavad Gita: "Swalpamasya dharmasya, trayata mahato bhoyat"-"Even a little bit of the practice of this religion will save you from dire fears and colossal sufferings."'8

"As I knelt the next morning at my guru's feet for his farewell blessing, he sensed my deep reluctance to leave him.

"'There is no separation for us, my beloved child.' He touched my shoulder affectionately. 'Wherever you are, whenever you call me, I shall be with you instantly.'
--From Chapter 32 of Paramahansa Yogananda's "Autobiogaphy of a Yogi"

BABAJI did not mention q108 in his books...

[LilaSakura]

Hi, "A mantra can be repeated hundreds, thousands, or millions of times, depending on the individual's spiritual practice. Typically, aspirants repeat mantras in multiples of three with 108 being the most common multiple used (for numerological reasons). " -IndiaParenting . com

[LilaSakura]

Hi nangan, yes (:

[catsville]

what is the mudra that looks like the two horns?

I would like to find out!

[LilaSakura]

Hi Cat, thar would seem the Apan(a) Mudra for balance, grounding, clarity. What Cristian wrote as the "OK" sign is the "Vitarka Mudra" it means he teaching. These mudras have other meanings and healing properties.

[jhutchins11]

How in the world do you keep track of 108 repetitions?

[LalaLandGirl131]

What is the sign he used for that most people would recognize as the rock out sign? Not messing around, but like, I know some hand positions are used for certain things, I just want to know what that's for. :)
