Guest guest Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Question from Rosetta: I've just received Swamiji's translation of the Lalita Trisati, his CD chanting the stotram, and have listened to the online classes on it as well. (It's very inspiring to hear Swamiji chanting on the CD!) Is the Lalita Trisati ever chanted in namavali form, or does this destroy the poetic form that Swamiji talked about in the online class? Swamiji's response: It is chanted as a Namavali also, but it is most powerful as a stotram. Question from Rosetta: Also, is it all right to chant just the stotram without the puja elements beforehand and after? The entire content of the Lalita Trisati that Swamiji gives in The Guru and the Goddess seems a little overwhelming to me, and I was wondering if I could start by learning the mantras of the stotram alone -- or is it more beneficial to just take a deep breath and try to tackle the whole thing, mudras and all? Thanks to Swamiji, as always, for making these prayers available to us! Swamiji's response: Start with little bites and don't get indigestion.
