Guest guest Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Dear Members, Source: Talks with Sri Ramana Maharshi Talk 241. DEVOTEE : How to do japa (repetition of mantras)? BHAGAWAN RAMANA MAHARISHI : It is of two kinds - gross and subtle. The latter is meditation on it, and it gives strength to the mind. DEVOTEE : But the mind does not get steady for meditation. BHAGAWAN RAMANA MAHARISHI : It is due to lack of strength. DEVOTEE : Sandhya is usually done mechanically. Similarly other religious duties. Is it useful? Is it not better to do japa, etc., knowing their meanings? BHAGAWAN RAMANA MAHARISHI : Um! Um! Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan : Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare --------------------- If you have any questions or doubts concerning Spirituality, Mental peace or problems in life or about dharma, please write to us by clicking here: http://www.namadwaar.org/answers/askquestion.php His Holiness Sri Sri Swamiji personally answers these questions for you and suggests prayers. --------------------- ______________________________\ ____ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile.
