Ajahn Dhammasiha leads a guided Buddhist meditation on the subject of Buddhānussati, recollection of the Buddha and his unique qualities.
Ajahn suggests to use his favourite Buddha-mantra, silently repeating:
"Bhagavā, Araham, Buddho - Buddho Araham Bhagavā"
Ajahn explains that it's not about the words that we're repeating, but that it's really about the emotion of faith / confidence / devotion / conviction that the words are meant to generate in our mind.
This emotion is wholesome and uplifting, and connected with a very pleasant feeling. As the emotion of faith/confidence in the Buddha grows, the pleasant feeling gets stronger, developing into rapture and bliss.
The expereince of rapture and bliss allows our mind to let go of the external senses und to unify internally in samādhi.
