lefthand japa

[Guest guest]

dear gurubhais,

is it compulsory to do japa with right hand?i had a

nasty fall and have injured my wrist and looks like it will take a

long time to heal.but i need to do a sadhana now and holding the mala

with right hand is not possible.will using left hand for japa give

rise to any dosh?thanks for the reply.

Jai Gurudev.

This should not be a problem. You may use the lefthand for prayer

without any "dosh". After completion of Mantra Japa, please ask

Pujya Gurudev for forgiveness for using left hand.

 

Mental framework is much more important than such physical bits. If

your mind is linked to Pujya Gurudev, and you are doing Sadhana with

sincere devotion, trust and faith, then you will surely obtain

success.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Abhi,

 

Sorry to know about your wrist.

 

> is it compulsory to do japa with right hand?

 

I think, it is compulsory. If I were you, I would have wore the

rosary and chanted the mantra, without counting, for roughly the

same time I would take had I been using the rosary. In other words,

if you think the jap would take about 2 hours, chant the mantra for

2 hours while wearing the rosary.

 

Don't put any unnecessary pressure on your wrist else you would

aggravate your injury.

 

Get well soon...

 

Ashish...
