Hare Krishna Darshan. That's our only way to purify ourselves. Live on earth is getting progressively worse. The bhagavat gita is so logical that we are living in kali yuga.
I received mantra from my master Sri Mata Amritanandamayi. She request all Her devotees to chant the mantra as much as possible Thank you for sharing 🙏
@@asoganmoodley610 guru mantra is way more powerful than any other ordinary god mantra... and amritanand is a shakta i think... so he gives diksha for shaktism
Very nice video. Since most people are busy with their jobs it is very effective to recite a mantra in the mind while travelling alone and also at the workplace. The work becomes more relaxing.

I have a doubt, I am a teenager and want to do japa, as I cannot pronounce 'ra' I am not doing ram nam jap but for my age can I do panchakshari mantra ( om namah sivaya) even I didn't get janu or yagnopavet.
Since long time, I desperately wanting a spiritual guru & mantra upadesha for doing Japa. Many times, I cry in my pooja room for a spiritual guru. I am clueless
You can reach out to nearest Ramakrishna Math center and get the intitiation there - belurmath.org/branch-centres/ If you are unable to go or do not have any other spiritual institution nearby, then I suggest you to start Japa of Mantra/Name of your Ishta Devata (Beloved God) by treating Him/Her as your Guru. There's no harm if you have pure unalloyed devotion.
@@HinduMonk Thank you very much for your positive reply, which giving me guidance & direction. Yes. I have Ramakrishna Mission centre few Kms away from my home. For sure, I will visit for he mantra initiation.🙏🙏
It's difficult for me to pick one but I should. I love many of them. I love how I feel after chanting to Ganapathi, Hanumanji, Shiva, Mother Kali....how do I find consistancy and pick one, especially since I do not have a guru? 🙏🙇♀️
You can do it either way. The advantage with Japa mala is that the mind can be easily concentrated with out much diversion and moreover you can have the number of counts/rounds.
Unfortunately, I'm not well versed in Hindi and have lack of time to do so. If anyone wants to translate and create a new channel, there are free to do so. Just send me an email with your name, channel name etc to get approved officially in black and white.
If you get initiation then well and good. But if it's not possible, then one should not waste time. Instead, treat Your Ishta Devata as your Guru and start chanting the Divine Name/Mantra.
how do I find consistancy and pick one, especially since I do not have a guru? I wish I could see the replied as my questions are similar to the ones below.
@@lynsavage6077 No, you shouldn't let astrology decide this. You can take any name you wish. If you still can't decide on one, I can help you. 1. Lust - If you want to eliminate Lust from your life you should either chant 'Om Namah Shivay' or 'Maha Mrityunjay Mantra'. I would suggest you chant Om Namah Shivaya for a few weeks and then either you can continue with that or switch over to Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra. But don't start your initial day's Jap with MahaMrityunjay Mantra because it is very powerful and requires proper pronounciation. 2. Obstacles - Recite any mantra of Lord Ganesh to remove obstacles from your life. 3. Energy and Fearlessness - If you are feeling weak, lost or confused in your life, and need some strength and motivation, recite any Devi Mantra. 4. All-in-One : If you are still confused, and don't know what to do, I suggest you recite mantra of Lord Vishnu. It isn''t for some specific purpose, but anyone can recite it to improve the quality of your life miraculously in ways you never imagined. 5. Bhakti - If you want to become a Bhakt (Devotee) and develop love for God, then chant some Krishna Bhajan. To have the most benefit from it, you need to have intense devotion. This type is more suited for religious people 6. Guru - If you really admire a religious/spiritual person like Ramakrishna, you can chant Om Shri Ramakrishnaya Namah. 7. Mahavakyas - If you are a beginner, DON'T DO THIS. These are for highly advanced seekers. This type is more suited for SPIRITUAL PURPOSES and Nirguna Bhakti. Only if you have been practicing Japa for 4-5 years, then you should start reciting the Mahavakyas. The easiest way to attain realisation is Bhakti. Follow the 7 rules I have mentioned above. If however, you are still in some dilemma (If one of the 7 conditions apply to you, then follow it), recite the MahaMantra or Om Namah Shivaya. Hope it helped.
Am seeking for three answers, the questions are- 1. Am not a dikshita, so may I japa or chant the mantra of my beloved Gods/Goddesses without the enlightenment of Guru? 2. Do I have to take a bath and wear a clean cloth and sit in holy place while chanting every time? I want to know the eating,sitting and clothing norms while chanting, as there are so many people giving me different advice on the purity and cleanliness while chanting. Also can anyone chant sitting on the bed?? 3. How to find my Ishta Devta and that also without Guru? And can I jaap multiple Gods and Goddesses?? 🙏😇🙏😇🙏
1. If you can get initiation from a Guru/Spiritual institution, then it is well and good. Else, treat God as your Guru and start doing Japa. 2. Physical and mental purity is obviously prerequisite. Try your best to maintain the same. 3. Ishta Devata is the one who is most beloved to you. Stick to only one name/mantra of your Ishta and do not switch at any time. Ofcourse, you can do kirtan, bhajan etc of all Gods and Goddesses but for Japa, stick to only one. Hope this is useful.

Without initiation by guru , can we pick any such mantra for Japa?
The mantras given in the vedio can be done even without being given by Guru.
