JAPA MEDITATION
JAPA MEDITATION IS THE MOST POPULAR AND MOST COMMONLY USED TECHNQUE OF GOD REALISATION. SWAMI SIVANANDA SAID, "NAMA (NAME OF GOD) AND NAMI (THAT WHICH IS DENOTED BY NAME) ARE INSEPARABLE. REMEMBER HIS NAME. CHANT HIS NAME. SING HIS NAME. GLORY TO HIS NAME ! VICTORY TO HIS NAME, WHICH BLESSESS US FOR EVER AND CONFERS IMMORTALITY, SUPREME PEACE AND ETERNAL BLISS!
THERE ARE SO MANY MANTRAS OF VARIOUS DEITIES. ONE HAS TO SELECT THE MANTRA BEFORE STARTING JAPA MEDITATION. ONLY THOSE MANTRA SHOULD BE SELECTED FOR WHICH ONE HAS FULL DEVOTION AND COMPLETE FAITH. THE FAITH SHOULD BE SO STRONG THAT ONE HAS TO WORSHIP THEM THROUGHOUT ONE'S LIFE, WITHOUT FEELING BORED. MANTRA AND DEITY ONCE CHOSEN SHOULD NOT BE CHANGED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THERE ARE MANY PATHS THAT LEAD ONE TO THE TOP OF MOUNTAIN. SIMILARLY THERE ARE MANY PATHS TO GOD REALISATION. THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT IS THAT WHATEVER PATH ONE MAY CHOOSE ONE SHOULD BE CONFIDENT THAT IT WILL LEAD TO SUCCESS IN LIFE.
