A magical mantra for nurturing a blissful life | JayaShri Maathaa

Reviewer: Nika Kotnik

Med vrhuncem epidemije koronavirusa na Šrilanki,

se pravi sredi leta 2020,

During the peak of coronavirus pandemic in Sri Lanka,

sem odkrila presenetljiv način za življenje polno sreče in miline.

that is mid 2020,

Na vrtu mojega uma je zrasla čarobna mantra.

I came up with a surprising way to fill my life with bliss and grace.

Bilo je, kot da so vse dobre misli,

A magical mantra was nurturing in the garden of my mind.

ki sem jih posadila v svoj um,

It felt like all good thoughts

začele cveteti in se razbohotile v nekaj lepega.

that I have planted in my mind

Ta mantra je bila kot magično zdravilo za vse trpljenje,

has begun to blossom into something beautiful.

ki ni vplivalo le na moje življenje,

This magical mantra was like a magic pill for all perceived suffering,

ampak tudi na vse moje bližnje.

Pri osemintridesetih

which not only affected my life

sem šla na duhovno potovanje, a bi odkrila, kdo sem.

but everyone else connected to me.

Thirty-eight years of my life,

Zavestno sem se podala skozi proces umiranja,

I went on a self-seeking journey, finding, who am I?

se odrekla vsemu, kar sem imela:

I went through a conscious dying process,

uveljavljeni karieri trenerke,

letting go of everything attached to my name:

svetovalke za dobrodelnost, hipnotizerke, energijske zdravilke,

well-established career as a coach,

bližnjim odnosom, navezanosti na družino,

a charity consultant, hypnotherapist, energy healer,

dobri 12-letni podjetniški karieri.

intimate relationships, attachment to family,

Kaj je torej ta čarobna mantra, ki mi je izboljšala življenje?

12 years of well-established business.

"Hvala" je bila enostavna beseda,

So what was this magical mantra that transformed my life for better?

ki mi je zapolnila prostor med očmi in zazvenela kot glasba v glavi.

"Thank you" were the two simple words

To sem globoko občutila med pandemijo,

that filled the space between my ears like a music in my head.

ko so bili vsi okrog mene

This was experienced profoundly during the pandemic,

polni strahu, dvomov in tesnobe,

as everyone connected to me

a jaz sem morala ubrati drugo pot.

Prva misel, ki mi je šinila v glavo, ko sem se zjutraj zbudila,

was filled with fear and doubt and anxiety,

je bila "Hvala."

and I had to do something different.

In zadnja misel v glavi, ko sem šla spat

The first thought came to my mind, first thing in the morning as I woke up,

je bila "Hvala".

Mislila sem si "Hvala,"

was, "Thank you."

ko sem jedla, pila, delala,

And the last thought occupied my mind when I went to sleep at night

ko sem hodila, tiho sedela,

was, "Thank you."

med uporabo vsakega umetnega materiala.

I was thinking, "Thank you"

when I ate, when I drank, when I worked,

Bila je kot glasba v mojem umu.

when I walked, sat silently,

Včasih sem besedico “hvala” izgovorila na glas,

when I consumed every man-made material.

celo predmetom, npr. soncu, luni, zvezdam,

It was like a music in my mind.

pticam, metuljem, drevesom,

Sometimes I said the word "thank you" loudly

bitjecem na vrtu,

even to inanimate objects like sun and the moon and the stars,

kot da jih pozdravljam.

Ko rečeš "hvala,"

birds, butterflies, trees,

ustvariš sozvočje med sabo

little creatures in the garden

in okoliščinami, ki jih opazuješ.

as if I was greeting them.

When you say "thank you,"

Pomaga ti preusmeriti pozornost navznoter.

it creates a harmony between you

Najprej je to morda samo beseda, ki se ti mota po glavi

and the external condition under observation.

It helps you to bring your attention inwards.

brez pristnega občutka hvaležnosti v srcu.

It may be initially just a word running in your head

Beseda je zvok,

in zvok je vibracija,

without a true feeling of gratitude in your heart.

in vibracija ustvarja energijo.

A word is a sound,

Ko v mislih ponavljaš "Hvala,"

and a sound is a vibration,

začne ta energija sčasoma prodirati

and vibration creates energy.

v središče tvojega srca in v druge dele telesa.

So when you keep thinking, "Thank you,"

Na težke čase in življenjske pogoje nimamo velikega vpliva,

after a while, that energy start penetrating

into your heart center and the rest of the body.

vsekakor pa imamo moč, da se v hudih časih pomirimo.

We cannot do much about troubled times and conditions in life,

but we certainly can do something to calm ourselves during troubled times.

Človeški um je kot voda.

Če nanj vplivajo zunanji pogoji,

se ustvari gibanje,

Human mind is like water.

globine pa ne vidimo.

Čarobna mantra "hvala"

If it gets affected by external conditions,

in pristen občutek hvaležnosti v srcu pomagata,

it creates movement

and you cannot see the depth.

This magical mantra, "thank you,"

da se mirno, veselo in blaženo soočiš z vsem.

and the true feeling of gratitude in your heart

can help you deal with any life situation peacefully, joyfully and blissfully.

Naj bodo vsak bitja zdrava, srečna, varna pred trpljenjem

in razsvetljena.

Hvala.

May all beings be well, happy, free from all suffering

Hvala.

Hvala.

and be enlightened.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.
