About this listen
Imagination is not mere fantasy—it's a bridge to the divine. In this episode, Giovanni explores the essential role of bhavana, the cultivated feeling or mood, in mantra practice. He explains how imagination animates the mantra, establishes the presence of the deity, and brings your spiritual practice to life.
You'll learn:
- The subtle difference between bhava and bhavana
 - Why imagination is not opposed to truth in the tantric path
 - How to visualize the deity in a way that actually creates a real connection
 - Examples of powerful bhavanas to try: mantra in every cell, light between hearts, vibrating as the deity, and more
 - How to use bhavana to deepen focus and connect your prana with the deity's
 
This episode turns a common weakness in practice—repetition without feeling—into a strength, by giving you the inner tools to charge your mantra with power and love.
