Govindaram Posted January 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Hello, I'm not sure what answer you'looking for, though is it scientifically proven also that sound vibration is highly beneficial for the mind, I am not expert in this, but just look at the music industry, the money it generates, anyway, The Maha-Mantra is a spiritual sound vibration, so it can change the consciousness, into Krishna consciousness, either you will have material consciousness or Krishna consciousness, the mind is subtle consciousness, it is possible to change it, like cleaning it up, and keeping the shine nice with Chanting, I hope I have helped you so far in your question, maybe devotees here can help you.

Govindaram Posted January 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 The Holy Name of Krishna and Lord Krishna Himself are Non-Different.. <font color="red"> --- </font color> The chanting of the holy names of Krishna is so sublime that if one chants the Hare Krishna maha-mantra <font color="red"> offenselessly, </font color> carefully avoiding the ten offenses, he can certainly be gradually elevated to the point of understanding that there is no difference between the holy name of the Lord and the Lord Himself. The Nectar of Instruction Text 5(puport) Unless one is advanced in Krishna-prema, love of Krishna, he cannot see or understand. By the blunt material senses, we cannot even understand the name of Krishna. People are always asking, <font color="red"> "Why are these people chanting Hare Krishna?" </font color> They cannot understand, although Krishna realization begins with the name. The name of Krishna and Krishna are nondifferent, but we cannot realize this intellectually. We have to practice chanting Hare Krishna to realize it. When we actually advance in devotional service and chant the Hare Krishna maha-mantra offenselessly, we will realize that Krishna and His name are nondifferent.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 How are you so sure that it will clean the heart. in teory is very easy, god is not dual, so his name and him are non different.. so who can clean our heart if not god? practically you have to experience, to practice.. this is not a dogmatic faith, it is a school, bhakti yoga school, and the only thing that we can do is to show something of it hoping (and praying) that you will find it attractive becaming our companion in the search of truth hare krishna.. please chant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
