In
this meditative practice which Lord Shiva explains to us through his disciple
Goddess Parvathi, the Visarga is used as a tool for meditation. The Visarga : has the sound of ‘Ha’ and is placed at the end of some
letters in Sanskrit such as Rama: Krishna: Shiva: Hari: Guru: or Lakshmi: When pronounced, they sound like Ramaha,
Krishnaha, Shivaha, Harihi, Guruhu and Lakshmihi. The meditator is asked to take up a letter with its visarga
to chant it and allow the mind to drop with the visarga. When the mind becomes
supportless, it touches the supreme reality that is ever present. - SS
