Thank you Stan. The most important aspect is the devotion with which you chant the mala. Treat it like a prayer item and keep it on your prayer room. You can also wear the mala in your neck but make sure it does not go below your navel. Chant any mantra with devotion and try to make it a regular practice. Om Tat Sat🌷🙏🕉

Divine blessings. Thank you for sharing. Please know that religion is man made and each belief system and rituals may differ. Yet it reaches the same one God, the same one consciousness. If one follows any path sincerely they reach the same end destination. Unfortunately many religions are confused and like to claim they are the best while others are inferior to them. This is a great error that unless rectified will continue to keep people deluded and confused. Om🙏🌷🕉

@@jnanabhakti-swaminikhilana1312 Thank you swami, I always had that sense and it’s only been more confirmed with my growth this year. Shortly after my grandfather passed, I “saw” him in a dream and he just nodded with a look of gentle understanding and acceptance. I think now that in that look was the ultimate knowledge of dharma or something, I wasn’t on “the” path at that time but he could see the greater path

Om Tat Sat Sushant ji: Sorry I must have missed your comment. Yes you may wear your Japa mala as long as it is done in a respectful way and it does not go below your navel. It will certainly protect you but do not display it openly. It should be hidden and should touch your skin for maximum impact. There are different malas for different types of Japa so please make sure you use the proper mala. For example if you are using "Om Namah Shivaya Mantra" then you should use a Rudraksh Mala. For Lord Rama, Krishna or Vishnu you should use a Tulsi (Basil) mala. The most important thing is your devotion and how you chant the mantra. Do it in a prayerful way and do it consistently. Om Tat Sat.

Bhava or emotion is your connection with the Ishta Devata. Do your Japa with a feeling of joy and love. Like you are enjoying a mystic sugar candle. Even if you do Japa without Bhava it is better than doing no Japa at all but will have limited benefit since the process is mechanical. Yet there is a benefit but it is much greater if you put your heart and mind in it also to the extent possible. Divine blessings 🙏🕉🌷

Om Tat Sat. Yes but please treat it with utmost respect and the Mala should not be longer than your naval. As you do your Japa it will help create an armor and also protect you. Om 🕉

Om Tat Sat Rekha ji. Japa is always good any time of the day. However if you do it during Sandhi kaal it is better. Sandhi time after Brahma Muhuruta is around 12pm noon when morning is ending and noon is beginning or around 7pm when afternoon is ending and night is beginning. Hope this helps you. Om🙏🕉

Om Tat Sat Divine Soul. The best mala to use for Gayatri Mantra is “crystal or Sphatik”. However the most important ingredient in your Japa is the bhavana or feeling. So if you can get a crystal mala it is the best. You can also chant or do Japa by counting on your fingers or simply chanting the Japa mantra mentally. Om🙏🕉

@@Mahakal77942 🙏🌅🕉

Om Tat Sat Aradhya ji. The most important aspect is our Bhakti or devotion so any Mala is OK. But if possible use a sphatik mala for chanting Gayatri Mantra as it is for the Devi. Divine blessings 🕉🙏🌷

Japa means repeating Gods name with Faith and devotion. Since the main purpose is to do Japa with these malas they are called Japa Mala. Hope this answers your question. 🕉🌷

Om Tat Sat Doyal ji Divine blessings. You can find lots of good and authentic malas on Amazon. Please read the reviews also. However the most important thing is your Bhavana or devotion with which you chant your mantra. Hope this information helps you. Om 🙏🕉🌷

@@snehalg4793 Om Tat Sat Snehal Yes. You can certainly remove it as needed but keep it like a prayer item in your temple. If you feel like wearing it, it is ok too. Go with your inner feeling. It is more important to have pure bhavana when chanting. There is a sacred cloth called “Gomukhi” where you can keep the mala while traveling etc. You should not openly display your mala while chanting during a journey. You should do it in a Gomukhi to keep your mantra chanting holy and private. Hope this helps. Om Tat Sat🕉🙏

From where in india i can buy authentic rudraksha mala?

@@iamcsn26 Amazon

Om Tat Sat. You can buy the mala at Amazon. There are plently of options available. The most important part is your devotion and how you chant your mantra. Please do it regularly at a certain time with faith. You should keep the mala in your prayer room in a sacred cloth. You can chant the mantra as often as you like but always complete the entire mala 108 beads at a time. You may do 5 or 10 Japa Malas at a time or more if you have additonal time. Hope this helps. Om Tat Sat

Divine blessings. Small beads that are easy to rotate are the best. The most important factor is the feeling of the devotion and faith in it. Size does not matter so much. Om 🙏🌷🕉

Thank you Ranjit ji. No. You start with the 1st bead and stop when you reach 108. 109th bead is simply your counting mechanism to let you know that you have completed the Mala. Do not cross over it but turn the Mala and start again if you are doing more than 1 round of mala. Om Tat Sat🙏🌷🕉

Om Tat Sat Klokker ji. Divine blessings. The most important part is having pure feelings towards your God when chanting. It is highly recommended to be a vegetarian since it helps greatly with purity. However it can be done gradually as one is inspired to. Chanting the name of God is always beneficial and helpful. Hope this answers your question. Om🙏🌷

Om Tat Sat. Thank you. It is generally a good practice to do at least 10 malas per Day (if possible). Otherwise every little bit helps. The most important factor is your feeling of devotion towards your diety when you chant the mala. If you have more time it is better to chant slowly while internally enjoying the process like you suck on your favorite sugar candy. It should give you a feeling of expansion and peace. It is important to do it daily and be as regular as possible. Hope this helps. Om 🙏🌷🕉

@@jnanabhakti-swaminikhilana1312 Swamiji, I am currently 42 but started my journey at 41. Why, or how, is it that this process borders feeling 'addicted' to it? I would be doing my japas all day in my (recently achieved) full Padmasana pose if I could; but of course, the body doesn't cooperate on that (yet). ❤

Om. Thank you for your question. The most important aspect of the mala is your bhavana (inner sentiments and emotions) with which you chant not necessarily a certain religion, although following the teachings of Sanatan Dharma will greatly benefit a sincere aspirant. The mantra japa is much more effective if it comes from a sincere Guru and the person practicing it is also a sincere aspirant. However in the inital stages you can just chant any mantra that gives you peace. Yes, you can also use it for mediation practice. You may contact me on messenger if you need further guidance. Om!

Om Tat Sat Sridhar ji. Please place the Japa Mala in front of your alter at the lotus feet of your Ishta devata. You can purify it with Ganga Jal if available. The most important part is your feeling. Pray from your heart that this Japa Mala be auspicious for you. After that you can start the Japa. Always respect the mala. You may also wear it on your neck after the Japa. It should not be below your navel and do not let it touch the ground. It is always good to get mantra initiation from a spiritual guru if possible. However initially you may get started with any mantra that gives you peace. Om🙏🕉

Om Tat Sat. It can be purchased at Amazon. Please review the ratings when you buy. You may start with an inexpensive mala. Much more important than the Mala itself is the practice. So please start as soon as possible and be regular as you start this great practice. Divine blessings 🙏🕉🌷

@@jnanabhakti-swaminikhilana1312 thank you Swami . 🙏🙏

Swami pls kindly let us know if we can buy this rudhraksha mala with 108 + 1 beads . can we buy that nd do we need to follow any specific ritual before starting the japa .nd pls let us know if we can count the extra bead in japa 🙏

@@srujanasrinivas8283 om Tat Sat. You do not count the 109th bead. It is called a Meru or Guri Bead and is there to just keep track of the count. Please watch the video again. After 1 Mala is done you rotate the Mala and start again. Do not go over the Meru bead. You may buy Ganga jal at any local Indian store and sprinkle water on the Mala to make it holy. Keep it in your prayer or meditation room and treat it with great love and respect. Be regular and do some Japa daily. Om and blessings. 🙏🕉

@@jnanabhakti-swaminikhilana1312 thank you Swami . 🙏🙏

Thank you for your question Divine Self. Correct Meru is the 109th bead. Please note the beats are always rotated in a clockwise direction. Ideally a mantra received from a Guru is highly effective. So to your question, the 109th bead (Meru) will let you know you have completed 1 full count. You will know because the Meru will block you from going forward. Plus you will feel the tassell that is a part of the Meru. You then simply rotate the mala and start again. You can decide how many malas you would like to do in each session say 5 or 10 etc. So after the Meru counter again you have completed the second mala and so on. Please let me know if this was helpful or if you have any other questions. Om Swami NIkhilananda

Om Tat Sat. Thank you. The most important aspect is your feeling when you chant the mantra. Do it with devotion and love. A Rudraksh mala is auspcious as it represents Lord Shiva who decorates the moon in his matted locks. Also always respect your mala and you can wear it but make sure if does not go below your navel. Also never let the mala touch the ground when you chant. Om Tat Sat. Swami Nikhilananda

Make sure you are relaxed and the spine is not stiff. Perfectly ok to have the mala in your lap while you chant. Just make sure you treat it like a prayer item with respect and it should not touch the ground. Do not worry about forms. The most important thing is chanting and the feeling of peace. Do the Japa regularly at a set time. Ideally in the morning. Chanting loudly is ok initially but then you should chant just slowly or even mentally so you can get a feeling of peace and bliss.

Lot of shops apply chemicals to the Rudraksh mala to avoid it from insects eating it etc. Also generally Japa Malas are not fake since they are not very expensive. There are specialists in Rudraksh who can tell you if it is fake or not. Please note that mala is a counting mechanism and connects you with God. So the most important think is your devotion. You may continue to use the Rudraksha with faith and devotion. Yes, you can also use the mala for meditation or any other spiritual purpose. It is also ok to wear your mala in your neck but should not go below your naval point. You may contact me on messenger if you have any other questions. Thank you. Om

@@chaoslady272 Om Tat Sat. Indeed with the foundation of faith and self effort we can make tremendous progress. Blessings!

It depends on your feelings. The mala you are referring to is known as Shiv Shakti. So both blessings come to you. Shiva adores Rudraksh and Parvati adores sphatik or crystal. Make sure they are genuine and a true Japa Mala should have a total of 109 beads. 108 for Japa and 1 Guru bead for keeping count. Most important is our feeling our devotion with which we chant the mantra. So if you worship both Shiva and Shakti then the mala you have is fine. If you only chants Om Namah Shivaya or Hanuman mantra then perhaps a rudraksh mala is appropriate. Hope this helps you. Om Tat Sat🌷🙏🕉

@@jnanabhakti-swaminikhilana1312 Thanks for quick response, was planning on shiva mantra only, is this still ok? And if one chooses to worship both, do they alternate mantra for shiva and different one for shakti? Because you should use one mantra only per mala right?

@@broskichannel4163 Generally there is only one Ishta Devata for an aspirant who is initiated by a Guru. If you like to chant both Shiva and Devi it might be better to get two Malas.

Also you may chant, “Om Shiv Shaktiyai Namaha” mantra with the same mala since you are chanting both names in the same mantra. It all depends on your intensity and feeling. Om Tat Sat🌷🙏🕉

It is ok to shower with it as water does not harm Rudraksh. Sometimes people color the Rudraksh with chemicals so putting it in water they test to see if color comes Out. Do not worry about all that though. Ideally it is good to be on your body and you can wear it on your neck. Pray to Lord shiva and seek his blessings.

Om Tat Sat Devnarayan ji - The most important thing in your Mala Japa is to chant with devotion (your inner feeling). You did not share what mantras but generally Tulsi Mala is good for Lord Narayan, Rudraksh Mala for Lord Shiva etc. Not sure if you have a Guru but if you chant your matra after initiation it will have a much greater impact. You can wear the mala also and it will protect you. Make sure it does not go below your naval center and it does not touch the ground when you are chanting it. It is a holy object and think of it as a prayer of Gods name. As you advance it will slowly put you in a meditative stage also. Hope this helps. Om Tat Sat. Swami Nikhilananda

Devnarayan Dhuria it is better to chant only one mantra on the mala since it created mantric vibrations. Which three mantras are you chanting? If you are doing it properly one mantra should be enough.

Om Tat Sat. divine blessings. Thank you for your comment. It is better to chant one mantra with love and devotion on a consistent and regular basis. This becomes your Isht Mantra. You may also chant other mantras as needed but your Ishta Mantra becomes primary. Also note that all Gods are automatically included in your Ishta Mantra. There is only one para Brahmin although we pray to him in different names and forms. If you are a serious aspirant finding an authentic spiritual preceptor is an important task you should undertake. As you evolve you will be guided properly by Gods plan. On and blessings. Swami Nikhilananda

Dear Marisa,Divine Blessings! It is purely upto you and how you are feeling. Of course the more the better but initially a goal of 10 malas each day is a good goal to start with. More important is daily discipline and dedicating some time towards your Japa. If you go deep and feel like mediating it is ok at that time to stop chanting the mantra and enjoying your meditation.Also a certain spiritually charged place that is fixed will greatly help. A nice shower, burning incense and a light also create a right environment for your daily japa.Answer to your second question is "Absolutely". That is a profound mantra and if you have been practicing it you may continue to do so with the mala jaap. It means like a drop of water on the lotus simply beads up and then falls into the ocean and merges into the ocean and becomes one. In the same way feel yourself becoming one with the universal energy.Hope these explanations answered your questions. Please feel free to ask anything else that will help your spiritual practice.Divine blessingsSwami Nikhilananda

Namaste Anurag ji. Actually Sanatan Dharma is an all inclusive universal way of life. It accepts all religions as reaching the same one God. It is a global and accepting concept. The teachings of Sanatan Dharma are for all to benefit. Bhagavad Gita is a universal scripture. One can remain a Christian but still read the Bhagavad Gita and benefit from it. That is actually the strength of Sanatan Dharma and there is never any conversion required. Saints and Sages are universal and not radical clerics. Religions are mostly man made. Judging them as right or wrong is one angle of vision from a human standpoint. From a profound standpoint God has created all of us with the same Atma, consciousness. We all come to earth for a while and we all die and depart. To realize the Self and attain Self realization is really the goal of life. There are not many Gods. There is only one God. It is perfectly ok if you did not like or do not agree with my views. The intention is to guide all who want to benefit. Thank you for your input🙏🕉🌷

Namaste Suraj. Why Not? God can take any form and any shape according to our faith. When we say God is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient why should we restrict him or limit him in any way. Om is the ONE God or consciousness. Does not matter what name or form you attach to it. It is not only for Hindus or Sanatana Dharma but for the entire world. Om Om Om 🙏🕉🌷
