Chanting with concentration

Jun 21st, 2007

Q. While chanting my mind gets diverted a lot. Please tell how to concentrate on chanting?
– Sanjay Bajpai

A. The uncontrolled mind always distracts the intelligence away from the lotus feet of Sri Krishna. The main principle of chanting is to listen attentively to the sound of the mahamantra . The mahamantra is chanted by the tongue and immediately caught by the ear. If any distracting thoughts come into your mind, just focus your full attention on the sound of the Hare Krishna mahamantra , and the thoughts will leave. Just try to hear the mahamantra , and the purifying effect will take place. Somehow, just have faith in Krishna ‘s Holy Name and all success will follow
