Uma and a seminar group chant the kirtan or mantra Om Namah Shivaya during a saturday evening satsang in a very loving way. Om Namah Shivaya is a salutation and the meaning of Shiva is „auspicious“, „lover“ and „good“. He symbolizes the power of transformation, the personification of the power of universal destruction. The one who terminated existence and let new ones appear. Sometimes he dances the dance of creation, as Nataraja. The feminine aspect of Shiva is Durga, the universal mother. You can find the lyrics in the Yoga Vidya Kirtan Songbook as number 2. More information about yoga, meditation and training and further education look at yoga-vidya.org.
