Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Namaste Phil: Create a routine of worship which suits your heart, mind and soul. Read the verses in English, meditate on their meaning, learn the bija, or seed mantra of the God / Goddess you resonate with, then begin chanting the text. To prepare to visit the Mandir, one should tune into the vibration of the Shree Maa. That is accomplished by performing the spiritual practices as Shree Maa and Swami do. Keep in touch.
