Fire
This is a virtual fire ceremony so you can participate simply by engaging with your heart during the video.
After 108 mantras, the video ends. This is a time for you to sit in meditation and integrate your experience with the energy of Sita.
You also have the option to:
Light a candle so you have the element of fire physically present with you as well.
Use your mala (if have) and chant Sita Ram Svaha 108x with me. Here is the video link for chanting japa with a mala.
Create your own personal fire ceremony and offer rice after each mantra along with me. Here is the video link for creating a personal fire ceremony.
Meditation
Sita Meditation Reflection:
What are your favorite ways to connect with nature?
How do you feel when you spend daily time outdoors versus when you are indoors/working on technology more?
Do you think time connecting to the elements gives you self awareness and the ability to discern when to speak up and when to conserve energy?
How can you use what you learned from connecting with Sita to protect your energy and also protect the natural world?
“When we reassert our relationship with the wildish nature, we are gifted with a permanent and internal watcher, a knower, a visionary, an oracle, an inspiratrice, an intuitive, a maker, a creator, an inventor and a listener who guide, suggest, and urge vibrant life in the inner and outer worlds.”
— Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women that Run with the Wolves
