Guest guest Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Jaya Guru Datta I have some more thoughts i feel i must share. Please respond actively if you have counter thoughts. I believe Puyja Sri Swamiji has set this target for His devotees and disciples in such a way that we, 45+ selected people around the world, now are facing some great tests in order to meet the december target. I dont believe the effort sould be outward (looking for others to start chanting).. i believe the chanters should increase their counts. I have a few years of jappa experience, and i believe it is very very very difficult for us normal people, who are not self realized, to be able to engage others to start chanting, and most certainly not engage into for example daily 0.5 hour session chanting. I myself am commited to 5 mala's (540 counts) a day (minimum), this takes me approx. 0.5 hours a day. However i could wake up early 04 am and do 2 hour chant and 10 pm 2 hour chant and then i would realize 40 malas a day (4320 counts). Then if i could do this for a month or two, then i could increase it (more efficient chanting) to 50 or 60 malas a day which would be the maximum for me a day, given the fact that i have a family. I believe that doing such a maximum count a day will engage a transformation, ...one will transform into higher states of existence or become higher beings. In other words one will attain siddhi's. With that gain we will have to carry out Puyja Sri Swamiji His work. I remember reading a speech that in the future sri swamiji wants people to be proud to meet a devotee of Sri Ganapathi Sachchidananda. (I will look up this speech.) If this select group of 45+ people commit themself and sacrifice some time and help each ohter in order to do 50+ malas a day, than people will stil speak about these 45+ people in 400 years, because these people will do great things. Perhaps the top 5 chanters should give us tips. It would be nice to read a few words from them on this topic. I do not use recordings of any kind when chanting, the sound comes out of my mouth in a murmur, but how they sound in your head is whats counts, not how they sound in your ear. It is a very great staring idea though to use back ground recording to keep count and etc. Anyway, i feel we should do a collective effort to meet the december target. Thanks you for your time.
