Guest guest Posted May 16, 2004 Report Share Posted May 16, 2004 Namaste Janaardana, Here at the Mandir we sing and chant. The Lingaashtakam that you are referring to is one of the songs in our songbook and we sing it. Shree Maa says that singing is one of the highest forms of sadhana and it opens the heart. I have heard her sing and chant the Chandi. You said: "my mind breaks out in music and I sing it > tears are flowing like rivers and I am gone" Why would you stop that river from flowing?
