US Dr Advises Christian to Chant Hare Krsna

[Guest guest]

I have just begun the chanting and meditation process on the advice of my M.D.,

who says I must do something for stress. I have chosen this non-drug way of

relieving stress. I am Christian and searched the web to find meditation

guides. I did not find any. Meditation to them is an essay. I need to meditate.

Any suggestions or sources? My business partner is Krishna and gave me a set of

neem beads to use in my chanting. In addtion to the chanting, I want to

meditate. Are these two processes the same? Do they achieve the same results?

Thank you for all your help. F. Connor Cason, M.Ed. Dear Conner,] I have just

begun the chanting and meditation process on the advice of my M.D., who says I

must do something for stress. I have chosen this non-drug way of relieving

stress. It seems you made the correct decision. Dr.Herbert Benson recommends

meditation-start with 5 -10 minutes in the morning and evening. In addtion to

the chanting, I want to meditate. the chanting is meditation-there are other

types of meditation. the chanting has relieved stress symptoms--choose a

mantra- govinda Hare gopala Hare he prabhu dina diyala hare- it a good

one...they are names of the Lord in Sanskrit.. good luck...keep in touch a

simpler mantra is Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare... use

the beads to keep track instead of a watch...let your Krishna friend show you

how to chant one "round"--try to chant 2 rounds in the AM and two in the PM...

your Krishna friend can make sure you pronounce the mantra correctly. good

luck-give it a few months...it works Michael Mantra Meditation box 273402
