japam/ New UK Rudraksha Site

[Guest guest]

Dear Neil,

 

"Om Namah Shiva"

 

I am very excited to learn of your site offering services in the UK. I am in a

hurry to get to my office now but will browse later this evening (after evening

prayers of course).

 

Wishing you all the very best.

 

Regards.

Namaste,

 

Japa does so much more than just offer a feeling of peace and well

being. The blessings of japa are physical, emotional, mental and

spiritual. Japa can touch every corner of your being.

 

Please have a look at my new site (born today!) -

http://www.shivabeads.co.uk. On the Japa page you will find information

on the wide variety of benefits that japa brings. I also have a series

of quotes on japa from Anandamoyi Ma, Aurobindo, Babaji, Gandhi, Mother

Meera, Paramahamsa Muktananda, Ramakrishna, Sri Ramana Maharshi, Satguru

Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, Sri Sarada Devi, and Swami Sivananda. They

speak of just about every aspect of japa in these.

 

There is also a section of articles on the Science page of studies on

the practices of japa and meditation.

 

As I mentioned the site was only opened today and we are still in the

process of uploading the final parts of it. So please excuse any

temporary glitches that might occur.

 

 

Om Shanti

Neil

Namashkaar,

 

I enjoy japa mala. I do one 108 round of Shree Krsna Japa (Hare

Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama

Rama Hare Hare); and then one 108 round of Om Namah Shivai. Besides

a feeling of peace and well being, is there any other reasons or

benefits of japa?

 

Regards

sleep. The habit then occurs that when the mind becomes still

awareness and consciousness is lost. This can also happen when the

mind becomes still during shaktipat. That is perhaps the last place

where you'd think a person would fall asleep, but it happens.
