Guest guest Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 JAI GURU !!! I just chanted the Guru Gita at 10 pm as my part in the Thanksgiving Guru Gita. I am getting ready to go for the 11 pm slot and complete our sankalpa. I finished the chanting in 45 minutes and have 15 mins before I go again. I wanted to share a technique that I used during the chanting. Even though I am studying the Guru Gita as part of our Saturday discussion, I dont chant it very often, and so the words dont roll off my tongue very easily. I took the time today to mark up some of the phrases that are particularly difficult. For example Verse 182 - the very last verse on page 202 of "The Guru and the Goddess" It is printed like this samsarasagarasamuddharanaikamantram brahmadidevamunipujitasiddhamantram etc etc Quite forbidding you will agree .. So I took a pen and drew lines in between breaking up into more bite size words So the above phrases break into samsara sagara samuddhar anaika mantram brahm adi deva muni pujita siddha mantram Hmmmm more readable ! And the next time I come back to read it (in another few minutes) I am not going to fumble over the phrases like the earlier times ... Wanted to share this ... just in case anyone finds it useful !! Ta Ta - I am off to chant . Have just another 5 minutes left !!! Happy Thanksgiving ! Jai Guru ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
