Sit in a comfortable position where you’re able to keep your spine straight and breathe deep.  Place your palms together in front of your chest with your fingers pointing upwards. The position of your palms is called the Prayer Mudra.  Your hands are located at the Heart Centre.  Your fingers should be pointed upwards but at a 60 degree angle (i.e. not straight upwards).  The bottom of your thumbs should press against your sternum (the bone between your breasts). Start by inhaling.  Then, while exhaling focus on the 3rd Eye Point and your heart while chanting “ONG NA MO.”  Your 3rd Eye Point is the centre of your forehead, just above your eyebrows.  To focus on this point, close your eyes and focus them upwards and inwards — as if you were trying to look at your 3rd Eye Point.  ONG NA MO means I call on Infinite Create Consciousness."  The ONG sound will vibrate the back of your throat, cranium and your nasal passages.  This will activate the pituitary and pineal glands. ONG should sounds like “Oooooong.”  NA is short and simple.  MO sounds like “Moooo." In both ONG and MO the ‘o’ sound is like ‘oh.' Either in one deep breath, or two breaths broken by a quick inhale through your mouth, chant “GURU DEV NA MO."  Do not breathe through your nose while doing this part of the mantra. Both GU and RU are short and simple. DEV sounds like “deeeeeev." NA is short again. MO sounds like “mooooo." There is no limit to the number of times you can repeat the mantra, it depends on how long it takes you to ‘tune into’ your body and your rhythm.  This chant also connects you with the Golden Chain.  The Golden Chain represents the teachers who introduced Kundalini yoga. Ong means ‘creator.’  Namo means to call upon or to greet.  Guru means ‘the teacher’ or the energy that brings the light.  And Dev means transparent or non-physical.

Summary: Get comfortable. Chant the first part of the Adi Mantra. Add the second part of the Adi Mantra. Repeat the mantra several more times.


When you eat too fast, you increase the amount of air you swallow with every bite, leading to a buildup of air in your body and the need to release that air later. Slow down and chew eat bite of food at least two to four times before you swallow it. This will help your body to properly digest your food and cut down on the buildup of gas in your body. While you may reach for a stick of gum after you eat or suck on hard candy after a meal to help freshen your breath, doing this may cause you to feel gassy later. Chewing gum and sucking on candy will increase the amount of air you swallow, leading to more air in your body and the need to fart later. Smoking cigarettes, cigars, and pipes can increase the amount of air you swallow and lead to a buildup of air in your body. Cut down on how many cigarettes or cigars you smoke every day to reduce your need to fart.

Summary: Chew your food slowly when you eat. Avoid chewing gum and sucking on candy. Cut down on smoking.


Get a large flower planter and drill a hole with a drill and ceramic bit that is large enough to get the power cord through. Use silicon or Sugru to patch the hole once the cord is through. Make sure it is very secure and watertight. Coat the whole inside with a water sealant to protect your pot. You'll need a 1/2" rubber tube cut to 1' or more taller than your You'll need to find another flower planter but this time a bit smaller. It should have an opening about the size of the base of the first, and reach to about 2/3 of the way up the first pot. Use a file to create notches in the lip of the pot and then drill a hole at the center of the bottom large enough to get 1/2" rubber tube through. Put this pot inside the first, upside down, pulling the tubing through the hole as you go. Place another large pot, using the upside down one as a base. You will also need to drill a tubing hole in this pot. Continue placing pots in this manner until it looks like you have 3 nested pots. Don't forget about the hole for the tubing and the notches on the rim of the 2 upside down pots. Ta-da! Your garden fountain is done!

Summary: Prepare your base. Cut and attach the tube. Insert the next pot. Continue placing pots. Add the water and then turn on your pump.
