Japa

[Guest guest]

Om Kali Varunaji,

The japa mantra are of important for those in bhaakti or tantric marga (path).

Your japa must evolve from your ishta devata (choosen ideal). Which you have done very well here .

Now as for Ma there are various mantras for japa sadhana.That is why it is

important for you to know the meaning of the mantras in order to choose those

that fits your tempremant( bhava ) ideally.

Usually the bija (seed) mantras are given by a proper spritual adept because the

seed (KREEM) has its inner meaning which make impression in your mind that taken

together with the pranava (OM) and the choosen form(KALI) will manifest the

Ideal within you.That is why this headache is usually left to Guru as he knows

the spritual aspirant tempremant well and what would be his ideal mantra.

Then again for some requires the use of Kali Gayatri and Samput as well.If your

are a tantra or yantra sadhaka (spritual aspirant) than this become very

important but if your are in bhaktic aspirant than Varunaji could choose the

mantra without bija (seed) first learn the inner meaning of the mantra than

attached bija to it.. Bhagwan Ramakrishna use to recite Om Kali even after

his realisation and this is what I used when I first started to learn the

proper tradition worshippping Ma as well.

If Varunaji wish so I could share the meaning of each sylabble in the japa

mantra that could be used or are availabe for Ma Kali.

Do you have the Devanigri meaning of the mantra that you have mentioned earlier

.. If you have you could share it with the group . If you need any asiistance we

could do it together for our group here. Below were the mantras ;

1) om

2) Maha Kali

3) Kali

4) Kreem

5)Ma 6) Sri

7) Kalikayai

Jai Kali !!

Hi, the important thing is to have a focus, a concentration when

doing japa. You should not have thoughts also in your mind such

as "my rhythm is wrong" or "I don't seem to be coordinating this

with my breath." Conciousness blooms in contact with sensory

objects, and mental productions are just the same as other sensory

objects like sights or sounds. With japa, you are trying to purify

your conciousness by making the sole content of your mind the japa

itself. What will happen is that as you pay close attention to your

own japa going on, you will notice something. You have to do this

with a lot of attention, like a cat at a mousehole! What you will

notice is that your mind/conciousness actually comes into being

because of what is perceived. There is no such thing as

just "conciousness," instead, there is only "conciousness-of." What

you will suddenly know for yourself is that not only is the ego an

illusion, just as all the scriptures states, but that you are part

and parcel of the universe... you have never separated from your

Mother! You still dwell with her always... Japa, prayer,

meditation... this is all to "un-forget" this fact.

 

Hope this helps!

Namaste!

 

Please give me more information about Japa.

What Mantra is reciting?

How much (rounds) is reciting?

How correctly to hold are rosary?

I recite Mantra (rosary 1x108) Om Hriim Dum Durgaye Namah (at

morning) and Sri Lalita Trishati Stotra (at evening). Is this correct?

 

Thanks

 

Jai Ma!

 

It depends on what your Guru told you.

These are supposed to be explained by guru.

Without diksha generally commonly known mahamantras are suggested -

like "Hare Rama" or Shiva-panchakshari. Basic number of recitations is

108.

Firstly, correct is "OM hrIM duM durgAyai namaH" and not "durgaye".

Secondly, as i was told by my deshika in SV, Trishati is used ONLY by

initiates. IMO, better chant Sahasranama of some stotra.

 

BTW, Odintsov must be from Russia or Ukraine? I'm from there as well :
