Jai Shrī Mataji

It is observed that as the right Mooladhara improves, our useless mental activity reduces and inner
silence augments greatly. Thus, right Mooladhara plays an important role in balancing and
establishing the Thoughtless Awareness.

But, this must not be understood that we need to neglect left and centre Mooladhara. Infact, without
awakening Shrī Nirmal Ganesha and Shrī Gauri Ganesha, Shrī Karthikeya cannot be awakened.

Mooladhara Foot-soaking
Following is the meditation to improve Mooladhara (as told by Shrī Mataji during Shrī Ganesha Puja,
1986).

We will sit in foot-soaking and do this meditation for better results.

Ice water for right leg and warm water for left leg are ideal for doing this Mooladhara Footsoaking.

* Put left hand towards Shrī Mataji and right hand on Mother Earth.

Keep the attention on Left Mooladhara.

Take Shrī Nirmal Ganesha mantra.

Say in your heart, “Mother, by your Grace, I am innocent” - meditate for few minutes.

We now take 108 names of Shrī Ganesha with complete attention on Left Mooladhara
(Eg: Aum Shrī Vinayaka namo namaha).

* Put both hands towards Shrī Mataji.

Keep the attention on Center Mooladhara.

Take Shrī Gauri Ganesha mantra.

Say in your heart, “Shrī Mataji, please make me innocent” - meditate for few minutes.

Here, no need to take any names as we do Mooladhara Petal Meditation after this.
* Then put right hand towards Shrī Mataji and left hand on Mother Earth.

Keep the attention on Right Mooladhara.

First, take Shrī Karthikeya mantra.

Say in your heart, “Shrī Mataji, please make me worthy of You” - meditate for few minutes.

Then take *Rakshasa Hantri mantra and again meditate on Right Mooladhara.

Say loudly, "Mother, Verily, You are the destroyer of all the evil in me.”

"Shrī Mataji, Kindly purify and improve my Right mooladhara."

"Shrī Mataji, Whatever I do is to please You" - meditate for a while.

We now take 108 names of Shrī Karthikeya with complete attention on Right Mooladhara
(Eg: Aum Shrī Skanda namo namaha).

We will wash off out feet with water and flush the water and sit for silent meditation.

The attention becomes pure and we go into thoughtless awareness.

Note : Please continue the Mooladhara Petal Meditation after this.
