Meditation for the Fourth Chakra 1

February 12, 1991

This meditation is believed to open and balance your Heart Center (Anahata Chakra), promoting feelings of openness, love, and compassion. The mantra HUMEE HUM BRAHM HUM, means “We are one. We are God.” When we truly understand that there is no separation and the divine lives in all hearts, we can embrace ourselves and others openly, with compassion and acceptance.
