Guest guest Posted October 5, 1999 Report Share Posted October 5, 1999 Hi folks, I've recently stubled accross some very important observations. .. Have you ever noticed the relationship between Where your Prana congests, and lust? This week I have noticed that after resting Mudras on my Knees or Lap, the prana tends to congest in my Lower two chakras. .. I have also discovered [much to my relief] that by placing my hands in the Prayer mudra @ my heart, and then reciting the Maha Mantra 12 to 108 times, can pacify the lust. .. The effectiveness of this exercise is multiplied if I make the most of the In-breaths. For instance, if I choose to performe 108 rounds, then on the first 54 rounds during the IN-breath I mentally recite the word, "lust", while Verbally reciting the Maha mantra three times every out breath. .. Then for the next 27 rounds during the IN-breath I mentally recite the word, "serenity". .. And for the last 27 round during the IN-breath I mentally recite the word, "happy". .. The Maha mantra is, "Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare" .. Sexual self-control seems to be indorced in both the Bhagavad Gita Upanishad as well as the Dhammapada. .. Perhaps we should consult the sacred texts, before we through the baby out with the bath-water. .. With palms folded, Darren :-) ..

Guest guest Posted October 5, 1999 Report Share Posted October 5, 1999 Hello, Another good mantra for intense sexual or food desires is: Ek Sat Chit Ananda Atman. This can be chanted 11 or 22 times.
