Hi. I want you to think about this. Have you

ever politely rejected a gift

or an offering from someone? If you

have, then you've already learned a very important

lesson. You just don't know it yet. A

lesson that you can use to deal with the most negative, most

difficult people and situations in your life. Let's

talk a bit about this today before I introduce you to this

week's mantra, Namaste and

welcome to yet another episode of the Mahakatha Meditation

Mantras podcast. I'm your host, Preeti.

So let me ask you this. If someone

offers you a gift and you refuse to

accept it, to whom does that gift belong?

The one who offers it, right?

Similarly, if someone offers you harsh

words or mockery or

insults or hurtful words, and

you politely refuse to accept those words being thrown

at you, just like you refuse the gift

and you say, listen, I hear your

words. I'm hearing your criticism, your insults,

your anger. But no thank

you. I really don't want them right now.

When you say this, you stop their words and their

behavior and their actions from affecting you.

And much like the gift that you rejected, they

remain with the person who offered them.

Now, I know we don't naturally speak to people this way.

Our natural reaction is to listen to people,

hear them out, even when they're being untrue or

unkind. Even if it means that it will shatter

our peace of mind. We think it is polite to

hear them out, to listen to them and to accept

their words. We then carry those

words, those harsh words in our heads, in our

hearts for a very long time. We think about them.

We get emotional. We feel small, we

doubt ourselves or even hate ourselves.

Or we quietly hate the person who offered those words

to us. Either way, we are

bearing a very heavy weight on our heads and our

hearts. We are used to accepting every

gift that we are offered. We don't have

to accept everything that is offered to us, do we?

We all have the ability to say no,

thank you. Not just to things that are

offered, but also to others' thoughts and

beliefs and words and behaviors that

don't serve us, that don't

serve our growth and our happiness and our peace of

mind. And I know it's not easy

to say no thank you to someone who is being

hurtful or hateful, especially if you haven't spoken like that

until now. But the good news is

this ability to say no thank you,

this ability to refuse negativity is like a

muscle. The more you use it, the easier

it gets to use it. So

if you're in for a little experiment with me in your daily

life, I want you to look for little things.

You can say no, thank you to.

Situations where it doesn't matter, situations where it won't

hurt anyone. For example, someone

offers you a glass of water or a seat in the bus.

If you can just say, no, thank you. Do

it with a smile. Do it knowing that you are not hurting

anyone by rejecting their offer. Do it with a light

heart, no, thank you. And

when you're ready, the next time you find

yourself standing in front of someone who is talking you down

or trying to trigger your emotions,

refuse their words with the same lightness

and politeness as when you refused a glass of water

or a seat on the bus. Say no, thank

you in your own words. You can say,

listen, I hate to interrupt you. I know you are in a flow,

but I really don't think I need to hear this

right now. I think I'm in a perfectly happy

place without listening to this. But thank

you. Say no, thank you in your own

words without trying to explain or apologize

too much, and walk away knowing that

none of it affects you anymore. I know some of

you think it's still very drastic, very

difficult. But start with those few days of

those small, little no, thank yous. And once

you get used to that feeling, that slight

discomfort of rejecting someone's offer,

someone's gift, then speaking up for

yourself and walking away from negativity in this

way will also be much easier.

Speaking of walking away from negativity,

here's a beautiful mantras that comes to mind to

dissociate from negativity. A lot of

our listeners have used this ancient chant to

focus on courage, to focus on confidence

and humility, rather than get sucked into the

negativity around them. The chant that I'm talking about

is the 12 names of Hanuman.

I love this chant because it is easy to chant along with.

And it helps if you know a little bit about Hanuman.

Hanuman is the deity to whom this mantra is

dedicated. Hanuman is the greatest example

of resilience, and he stands

tall and strong and focused in the face of some

of the most evil enemies in mythology and some of

the harshest circumstances, some of the harshest

challenges. This chant invokes

Hanuman, calls his name in twelve different ways,

and it allows you, the listener,

to invoke that same resilience within

you. That's what makes it such a perfect mantra to

practice whenever we find ourselves

dealing with difficult people every day, or if we

generally find it difficult to stand up for ourselves and

protect ourselves from others' negativity. And I

want you to join our ocean of listeners who have

gained so much strength and power from this

mantra. Here are comments from just two of our

listeners who've spoken about this chant.

The first one says, as I listen to this

mantra, I can feel my body

releasing positive energy everywhere, and I

can feel my soul is healing.

The second one says, 1 minute into this

video and tears start rolling down my

cheeks. Jai Hanuman, you

are the epitome of love, strength,

devotion, and protection.

I want you to have the same transformative experience

with this mantra. If you have been holding on to

a lot of anger or resentment, or if you've

come to doubt yourself or feel small

or insulted or hurt for a really long

time, then I encourage you to listen to this mantra for a few

minutes every day so that you can just release

those emotions out. Release that negativity

out and face your day with more

confidence and courage. And if you would like to

do this, if you would like to try this mantra, I'm offering it to

you here at a 30% discount. So go ahead and

use the discount code mentioned in the description of this

episode and gift yourself this mantra.

Use it to start walking away from all forms of

negativity in your life. Use it to build

your ability to say no, thank you, without

being apologetic. Try this for a few days,

dear listener, and let me know how you feel.

You can always write to me at

preeti@mahakatha.com to share your experience

or any questions you might have. On

that note. Dear Listener, thank you so much for staying

tuned in. To you and to everyone listening,

May you find the strength to refuse what

doesn't serve your soul, and may Hanuman be with

you. Stay blessed.
