[Guest guest]

Dear Group Members,

 

Praanams,

I have few questions which I think should be discussed in

this group as the members are very learned and knowledgeable and

experienced.

 

1. While going to sleep at night time I hang my Holy Rudraksha Mala

on the Photo of Lord Shiv in temple in my home.Is it correct and is

there any harmin doing it?

 

2. I sit in Sukhasan While doing Mantra Jaap of "OM NAMHA SHIVAYA"

for 108 times before going to sleep, sometimes I feel sleepy and

forget the no. of mantra I have counted.Can any one tell how to

overcome this problem.

 

3.Sometimes even though I don't feel sleepy still I go to a situation

where in I forget the no. of mantra I have counted and I feel that my

mind is vaccant

 

4. Sometimes while sitting in Sukhasan and doing Mantra Jaap I feel a

jerk and feel like falling back and with a jerk I come back to my

orignal position again just like a rolling doll with which children

play around by pulling it and leaving it and it moves forward.Can

anybody explain this phenemenon?

 

I would like to point out that I don't use any Jaapa Mala to count

the Mantra.I just count in my mind. I am shortly going to procure it

from Rudra Center Mumbai.

 

An early reply of all the above questions will be highly appreciated

 

Best Regards and pranaams
