So I would like to know how the more proficient members of the EMS group do

this; do you recite out loud or mentally, and how do you regulate your

breathing? And, what I also would like to know: do you stick to regular hours in

the day or

do you recite whenever you have a minute or two?

 

 

Namaste Henny,

 

Mentally, early morning ( not necessarily the same time ) and sometimes

finish the day's total malas in the late evening. My breathing technique was

taught to me many years ago ( over 30 years ) and fundamentally my awareness

reminds me when it varies. The method is diaphragmatically, much like a baby.

The repetitions sometimes become a meditative ( or contemplative ) experience

and the only external reminder is the Guru bead or when in external

consciousness noticing that many beads were passed. The best advice is be

consistent, love what you are doing, and do it in love.

 

With Love
