Guest guest Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 When one is chanting loudly he may be " grinding out " the holy names at a feverish pitch, but the mind and heart may be a million miles from Krsna. But loud chanting can be very beneficial, especially when the mind slips into monotony or the ghosts of desire surface from the depths. At times like this a brisk walk in the fresh air, and a few loud " roof top rounds " will help revive one's interest and attention in japa. All these forms of chanting please Krsna and purify the heart, provided they are done with sincerity and devotion. From The Art of Chanting Hare Krsna by Mahanidhi Swami -- LET US NOT MAKE OUR STOMACH A GRAVEYARD. LET US NOT EAT FLESH. LET US BE VEGETARIANS AND STAY HEALTHY. Animals are to be loved, not eaten. Eating flesh is good neither for the mind nor for the intellect, not even for the body. It distorts the basic character of human. Think Soul is Soul and it came from the Supreme Soul...God Head Krishna Chant:Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare HareHare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
