More Information:
This mantra is used in Kauri Kriya, a meditation in which the mantra is sung in ascending musical scales.  It is great for rainsg the kundalini and activating healing energy.

COMMENTS:
Kauri Kriya is a first step towards raising your energy from the lower to the higher centers. It will take the apana (eliminative
energy) into the prana (generative energy) region, balancing
and aiding in properly channeling these energies. Eventually,
prana and apana will both end up in Saraswati, the lotus of one-thousand petals. This will turn the chakra upside-down so the nectar will run out of it. “By virtue of the Nam the nectar starts dripping in me.”
This Kriya will give rhythm and melody to all your utterances. Any prayer that is lacking in these two areas will not be answered

Contained in this Kriya are mantras of the earth SA RE GA PA DHA NE SA; mantras of the ether SA TA NA ~ and the Siri Gatri mantra RA MA DHA SA SA SE SO HUNG. In ancient times, this kriya was practiced by large groups sitting under a single dome in concentric circles. A single person would sit in the middle and lead the chanting. Besides the effects of balancing the inflow and flow of energy, this kriya will make the glandular system secrete totally in the same way that it does on the 11th day of the new moon (a time of lunar fasting where no food or liquid is taken to potentiate the secretory process of the glands).
