108x Around the Heart Album with Kathleen Karlsen

108x Around the Heart (2025)

The human body is believed to have 108 energy lines or nadis that form the heart chakra. In addition, Ayurvedic medicine teaches that the body has 108 marma or vitality points. By chanting 108x, each nadi or marma is stimulated. This album consists of 4 mantras that are chanted 108x and one mantra that repeats the name of Rama 1008x. The tracks from this album can be found on the Vocal Medicine YouTube channel or on Spotify.

Tripura Sundari Mantra

The Tripura Sundari Mantra is also known as the Bala Mantra, meaning the development of internal strength. The lyrics are “Om Aim Klim Sau Sau Klim Aim.” This mantra emphasizes three goddesses: Saraswati, Shakti, and Kali.

Hanuman’s Rudra Mantra

Remove all negativity and discomfort with the Hanuman Rudra Mantra: OM HUM Hanumate Rudratmakaya Hum Phat! This is a strong mantra that can shift situations suddenly.

 

Durga’s Mantra

Also known as the Chumunda Mantra, this chant calls upon the protective powers of the Goddess Durga, known for her fierce defense of her devotees. The name “Durga” means impassible, invincible, or unassailable. 

Rama’s Mantra

The name of Rama has incredible healing power. The syllable RA (masculine energy) stimulates the pingala nadi or channel that begins on the right side of the spine. The syllable MA (feminine energy) stimulates the ida nadi that begins on the left side of the spine.

Mahalakshmi Mantra

The Mahalakshmi mantra utilizes the powerful seed syllable SHRIM, meaning splendor. This mantra is the perfect daily wealth devotional! This extended version repeats the mantra 108x, a mystical number believed to multiply the effect of the mantra.

SHRIM means “splendor” and is associated with wealth of all kinds. SHRIM is mainly related to the earth and water elements, with some fire qualities. SHRIM is a gentle light, closer to the light of the moon than the light of the sun. This energy is like luster or glow rather than a blazing fire.
