Hi All
Just getting back into practice and reading deep meditation again after a long time and something popped up re mentally listening as the session starts to Ayam versus Iam .
There is a subtle but maybe energetic difference between the I and the A vowel sound. Was Yogani purely mentioning Ayam in the book so that people reading it wouldn’t get hung up on the meaning I Am as opposed to the important sound of I Am.
I realise once practicing the sound will do as it wants but would appreciate some clarity before I restart practice ,should I kick off with I or A?
Thankyou

hello snake, welcome back!

If you listen to the audio file where Yogani says the mantra, that will hopefully remove your doubts. The link to the audio file is about half half way through Lesson 13.

Hi Snake,

The pronunciation of "I AM" and "AYAM" are the same. They are just two different ways of writing the mantra down.
