Guest guest Posted July 23, 2001 Report Share Posted July 23, 2001 When out of necessity I find myself sharing a room, I tend to not practice my meditations since I don't want my chanting to be a disturbance to my neighbor. In these instances can one chant such kriyas as the sat kriya, morning call medical meditatiton (as described in Dhamra Khalsa' "Meditation as Medicine) and the kirtan kriya silently? Or is it better to switch temporairly to a silent kriya, and if so what would you reccommend? Thanks for all of your help.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2001 Report Share Posted July 23, 2001 Over the years I have had lots of students ask me this. I usually tell them yes you can do it silently. You can also do it in a whisper, or you can do it subvocally where there is no sound being heard outside of yourself but your mouth is still moving and your tongue hitting the palate.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2001 Report Share Posted July 23, 2001 Dear Joe, Silent or whisper is fine when necessary. Make sure that your tongue hits your palate and you are not just mentally doing the mantra when chanting is specified.. The tongue on the palate creates a reaction in the brain. After years of chanting I can now feel the vibration on my palate even when I mentally chant. But I still chant when it is directed to do so.
