Winter Quest 2017 — we practiced Kuji 2 alignment and revitalization and balancing of the body’s psycho-physical centers. We used the mantra “Enerchii” (“Energy”), but here is the formal practice mantra. I have translated it back into Sanskrit from the colloquial hundreds-of-years-old Japanese, and added an English translation.
