Guest guest Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Dear Prasanna Kumarji, In its initial phase any authentic mantra will have this effect. A constant rythmic repititation leads to relaxation which means that for a tired person the start of sleep. There is nothing wrong with this. Keep at it. In a later phase you will find that although you feel relaxed, you will not feel sleepy. Remember that even deep sleep is called " Tamoguni Samadhi", i.e. a state of Samadhi where you are ignorant of it. The real Samadhi is like deep sleep but you are fully conscious. But this process can take many lifetimes. What helps is initiation from a saint who has awakened the matra and constant , patient practice. the panchakshara (Om namah Shivay) mantra is a great mantra and will surely benefit the practitioner. Keep at it. Om Namah Shivay "prasanna kumar kasturi" <prasannakasturi Sent by: 05/31/2005 09:23 AM Please respond to cc: RBSC : japam Dear sir, i am doing japam daily on shiva mantra,from few day while doing japam i feel sleepy .i am going into sleep. why it is like that. pls help me in this regard hari om prasanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
