Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Namaste Ranveer: When you go around the mala one time,counting each bead, repeating the mantra once for each bead, that means you have completed 1 mala. Maa recommends that you perform 1 mala each day, at minimum. You can perform more depending on your time and feelings. Maa and Swami recommend that you take a sankalpa-{make a firm commitment}, to perform the the mantra. The sankalpa helps one to remain focused and perform the mantra daily, no matter what one feels, or how one's mood changes, once one takes the sankalpa, one does the mantra. I hope this answers your question. Please feel free to relate your experiences and questions as you proceed. We hope to have a sound clip of the mantra on the web site very soon. then you can hear it in order to pronounce it correctly.

One can do as many malas per day as one wishes,Maa suggested at least 1 mala per day for the year. Do not worryabout catching up. Whatever sankalpa-{firm comittment} you establish for yourself youshould do at least that number daily. More is great.So glad you will be a part of Maa's sankalpa.Jai Ma Jai Swamivishweshwar-- In , " deviloka " <deviloka@> wrote:>> Namste and New Years Greetings to all!
