Dear Brothers

 

Here is the exact text from out main site for using Rosary. I hope

this will be able to solve confusion of Shri Sanjay and other. It is

available in faq under "Sadhna Related Queries"

------------

Q. How to chant using the rosary? How do I hold the rosary? Which

hand?

A. You should hold the rosary in your right hand while chanting the

Mantra. You should take rosary in right hand between Ring-Finger and

Middle-Finger and move it using Thumb and Middle-Finger. You should

place your hand adjacent to the heart. The rosary should not touch

your leg or ground. Either you should place your left hand to avoid

this, or you may put rosary in Gomukhi (cotton cloth bag) whilest

chanting. Your index finger (fore-finger) should not touch the

rosary. You should never let rosary touch the ground even when you

are not performing Sadhana. It should always be kept wrapped in a

clean cloth.

 

There is a separator bead in every rosary. Basically it is the

central bead at which the thread containing beads is joined/tied

together. This is normally marked by a different color thread on it.

You may easily identify the separator bead. You should start moving

the bead from the bead next to separator bead. You should not start

from the separator bead itself. The beads should move along with the

mantra chanting in direction towards you (clockwise direction). You

should move one bead with each chant of complete mantra. In the

moving process, once you reach the separator bead after finishing the

bead before the separator bead, you should overturn the rosary with

your right hand, making the last bead before separator (one you used

just now) the first bead after separator. This is called as

completing one complete round of the rosary. And then you should

start chanting again with this bead as the first one.

 

In some muslim mantras, the rosary should move in direction away from

you (anti-clockwise direction).

 

Normally, the same Mantra is chanted with all the beads. One rosary

should preferably be used for a particular Mantra only. Only a

particular type of rosary can be used for a particular Mantra.

 

For maximum benefits, one needs to use a special consecrated rosary

which has been enlivened for the particular mantra for that person.

Yup! that the exact info. The logic behind holding th erosary close to

heart is that the movement of energy from hand to rosary n from rosary to

hand also affects the heart and in this process energises the heart.

After alla pure n loving heart is what needs in getting a success. Which

will greatly increase the chances of success in a sadhana.
