(Please add your knowledge to this page! Check here to see how.)

Meaning: A lullaby to the heart.

The Upanishad explains — In the beginning one vibrates "Om," then "Namo," and thereafter "Narayanaya." Om has one syllable; Namo has two syllables; Narayanaya is five syllabled. Together these make the eight jewelled syllable Narayana-mantra. One who recites this Narayana-mantra is free from fame with a pure heart and attains all: life, offspring, wealth, health and cows.[1]

Lyrics and direction

>> A round or canon, one group starting first

OM Namo Narayanaya 
>> Face partner - eye contact
   hands covering heart moving	down
   and opening up before you to others hearts
   opening arms to sides palms turning up
	
OM Namo Narayanaya
>> Arms lift above head hands return to first position
