Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hari-Om Muraliji, What a wonderful name you have. Murali! manoharam ! Your name itself will suffice to develop concentration. Think of Bhagavan holding His golden flute in His hands and stnding under the Parijtha tree. Concentrate on that marvellous form and chant His holy name repeatedly. To help you concentrate further, use a japa mala when chanting. This way one does not have to divert one's thoughts on to the counting process. Chant the Maha mntra at least 108 times a day in one sitting. Do it in a quiet place with minimum distractions. Our mind is like a wild horse. It has no directions or a straight path, Like the horse, it has to be mellowed, trained and only then it could be controlled. It is Bhagavan's Maya. The mind wanders. it is its nature. Let it go, let it wander whereever it wants, the good way or the bad way. But slowly by daily practice try to bring it under control little by little. ,all the time keeping a transperant vision of the Lord in front of your eyes. Practice makes it perfect. In Gita Bhagavan says: " If you cannot concentrate your thought firmly on me, then seek to reach me, Arjuna, by discipline in practice. Even if you fail in practice, dedicate yourself to action; performing actions for my sake, you will achieve success. If you are powerless to do even this, rely on my discipline, be self controlled and reject all fruit of action. " Gita verse 9-11 - Chapter 12.

After I joined this group only I came to know about Hare Krishna Maha Mantra from one of the postings of Mr. Manikantan. I am very grateful to Mr. Manikantan for that posting. My problem is that I can't concentrate while chanting the Maha Mantra. Every day befor starting the chanting I think today I will concentrate only in the Mantra. But unfortunately after some time I am losing my concentration. What I can do to avoid this. Is it sinful to do like this.
