Some people settle into stillness more easily with a sound to rest on. If that is you, this is the version of the meditation to have.

This recording guides you through the Meditation on Twin Hearts using Om Mani Padme Hum as the mantra rather than the more familiar alternatives. The structure is unchanged: preparatory exercises, the blessing of the earth with loving kindness, the meditation, and a proper close. What changes is the texture of the sitting, which many practitioners find warmer and easier to stay with.

Om Mani Padme Hum is among the most widely recited mantras in the world, associated with compassion across the Buddhist traditions. Pairing it with a meditation built on loving kindness is a natural fit.

It suits anyone with an established Twin Hearts practice who wants variety, and newer meditators who find their attention wanders in silence.

Not recommended for children under sixteen, or during pregnancy.
