“The chanting of Akaal creates a vibratory frequency that assists the departing soul on its journey through the ethers to final liberation.” -Shakti Parwha Kaur
Yogi Bhajan asked the students at one of his classes to chant Akaal for someone who had passed. Here are his words:
“You have chanted Akaal which you chant three times with the breath of life for the soul. It gives absolute freedom, eternal peace, and eternal rest.

Teacher’s Notes & More Information:
Yogi Bhajan taught that a soul stays in the Earth’s vibration for 17 days after leaving its body. Chanting Akal daily for those 17 days is very helpful for them. It is a very powerful chant when done with a group, especially if that group is focusing its group energy on a single soul.
For your own practice, you would ideally chant twice per day for the first 3 days, 2 ½ hours before sun rises and sets. Then continue on once daily for the reamining 14 days.
