Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Parroting "slowly" requires control = focus = intent = sure it works :-) Slowly being the key ....... sankara menon <kochu1tz > wrote: I agree and not agree *smile*. Parroting is not VERY effective. But with parroting slowly the knowledge dawns and the right Guru appears and the onward progress occurs. There are stories to demonstrate this. My 2 cents Vir Rawlley <redderred > wrote: There are many learned people in this forum, so I pose the question and give my answer. May wiser ones enlighten me/us further. Q - Does parrot-chanting of mantras give any benefit ? A - No Qualify Answer Devotion to the Diety, Understanding the meaning of the Mantra (visualising) and Knowing what results to expect (intention), I believe must combine = CLARITY. For example, I think one clear recitation of the Gyatri (Savitri) = n number of parrot recitations. In parrot recitations, the mind wanders, so there is no point of focus to pierce through to a result.

After reading all this, I like to ask one question: what is the purpose of your sadhana? What is the real intent in performing all this sadhana. YOu all talk abt destinations and goals? Is that the real intent of your sadhana. As I personally belief, goal will always be there if your process is correct. I guess a lot of people fails and feel dissolution because they pay too much attention to goals and destinations. Process is the transformation of the self, and the first step as belief. , SRIRAMA DONGRE <sriramadongre wrote: > > Dear Puneet, > > You have spelt words of my heart.
