Aum! Aum! Aum!

Aum! Aum! Aum!

—after “Dawn Chant”

Waking for meditation,
I energize, stretch for Kriya,
Sit, and begin.

In the asana of mediation,
With the opening dawn,
I wake for the work of the day.

O, children, O brain cells,
O body, O mind—
Keep all attention

On the chant of chants,
Aum, Aum, Aum,
Aum, Aum, Aum,
Aum, Aum, Aum . . .
