Q&A with Swamiji .....253...Group Sadhana

[Guest guest]

Question from Nirmala:

Is it true that group sadhana is stronger than individual sadhana.

If this true, is it preferable to try and chant with others as

often as the situation permits? Also are there any scriptural

references to the number of people that when chanting in a group,

makes the chanting

 

Swamiji's response:

There is a time for each type of sadhana. Sometimes it is more

appropriate in a group, sometimes individually.

 

In Devi Bhagavatam there is mention of 3, 9, and 108 participants.
