Guest guest Posted January 29, 2002 Report Share Posted January 29, 2002 Actually you are right about the "Gung" and also about if someone has Bhaava, it absolves them?? :-) That is one thing about Sanskrit - its very difficult and can take a lifetime to learn! In reciting Mantras, some teachers teach about "cadence" and other intricasies. Some don't teach that as they themselves don't know... The ones who follow the English transliterations (of which there are many variations according to lineage and their respective Gurujis) without knowledge of Sanskrit, may pronounce them wrongly But may still be able to achieve good results if their hearts are sincere..... (for example a fool like me :-)) hehehe.... [Running for cover now! before someone hits me on the head..] Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
