Pranayama should not be used as a substitude for chanting I think that is obvious, the health benefits however are many and for someone who is ill it can be incredibly effective.

if you like my photography, i can post some pics here from time to time...

you're not supposed to talk about this mantra. once you receive it in Diksa initiation, you should keep it secret...

This mantra is supposed to be chanted in the mid or at least softly when no one around can ear it.... it has an effect only when received from the lips of a bona fide Guru

I'm afraid this is bogus thing... Marrying Lord Krishna in a ceremony !? I'm not sure what our Beloved Prabhupada would think... Anyway, there's a process we have to follow, we can't do what we want like that...

i was thinking about a cat lately... the only problem is that they eat meat... or they can be vegetarians....

Dogs are kind of dirty... but anyway, do as you like bro, there's no regulative principle forbidding to have pets... you can feed them with prasadam...and save them.... easier than with humans ha ha !!

Haribol !!

i'd like to do a simple Nrsimha Yajna, for protection and liberation from obstacles.

I'd like to recite prayers and then offer food into a small fire. I'm initiated as a bramin.

How can i do it very simply ? i want to light a fire with ghee and wod and to recite the 108 names of Nrsihma. What kind of food can i offer ? cereals ? which direction should i face ? ...

i want to keep it as simple as possible.

Any advice !?

Thanks, Sunanda

Jaive Dharma is very good too, you'll get so much knowledge in one book. my Gurudeva told that if you had to read only one book, read Jaiva Dharma

i'm just ending my 6 years relationship, with my wife... after less than 2 yearsof marriagewe just broke up... she's more or less a protestant....

So be careful, make sure to talk about it before... i grow into KC gradually and when i took 2nd initiation, she just couldn't handle me waking up early and offer food.

Also if you wanna have kids make sure she'll agree with the vegetarian diet. i don't have kids but when we talked about it it was obvious that it would be a problem. What will you do if she wants to give meat or eggs to your children ? or if when they visit the parents in law they wish to give them meat? you have to agree together and be strong.

My relationship was doing very very good for years, then it changed in one year anad degraded so much. i must say i'm no fanatic at all, and did a lot of compromises. We had a "normal" intimate life and i accepted meat or eggs in the fridge.

So better to talk about it before.

"I am curious to hear people's opinions on celibacy as way of life. I myself have been experimenting with the practice and have experienced, at times, freedom from and rapture by desire. Sexuality is a part of our personality and I wonder what the physical and mental consequences of prolonged practice of celibacy are."

yes i'm thinking about it for a while. I'll be fine, thanx again.

thanx for your answer, we don't have kids and we decided to separate, at least for now.

I was thinking about it a lot lately and i feel unhappy with the life of compromise i have to live like that, although i do love her.

She doesn't showing any interest in KC anymore and she began to resent it so i think it will be the best decision.

Let's just see what the blue boy planned for me...

What should you do when you're a diksa initiated disciple and you're married for 2 years with a girl and you're relationship is not going good ?

I mean i'm practicing KC, but she's smoking and drinking sometimes, eating meat. I thought she was going to change but it doesn't happen. She's a great and intelligent person, but we're not on the same planet. Yesterday we decided we should separate. Nothing is sure right now.

So according to vedic philosophy should i try my best to stay celibate until the end. Although I'm pretty sure i'm not ready for it, as i'm 29 and still full of desire.

i think there are good medicine now. In the meanwhile, masage your head a lot, and but it short short. At least you'll get use of having no hair /images/graemlins/wink.gif It is very hip nowadays, so don't worry !

better than a thousand men is one man with intelligence

What is said about the moon is vedic litterature ?

Does the Moon is also Rahu or it is different ?

I think it is a heavenly planet.

Does the planet we see from here is indeed the same Moon described in the Vedic litterature ?

it's the no illicit sex rule, of course. A lot of people, including me, still have sex for pleasure with their partner/ spouse...
