The Power of MM! Wow!!! all day and all night

[Guest guest]

OM NAMAH SIVAYA

 

Dear Karen,

 

what a great thing to play the mantra in your home constantly.

coincidentally, a couple of months ago i got a cd of the Sri Lalitha

Sahasranamam, 1000 names of the Divine Mother, originally to help

with my pronunciation of the mantras. but i then thought, i should

just have this on repeat and play it all the time, day and night.

it has made quite a difference i think. Mother's vibe, it's so high.

 

this seems like a good idea for any mantra you wanted to use.

 

JAI MA

your words, MM is playing constantly in my home. In fact, right now

it is playing both in my temple room and my office (on this computer

as I write). And the rudraksha beads around my neck are amplifying

MM's effects as you suggested! "Thank you" is a small response to

the immensity of knowledge in your posting.
