A Question On Mahamantra

Hare Krishna dear devotees. This question just came to my mind. since all the mantras are included in mahamantra or the powers of all mantras are included in mahamantra, is it legal to worship Mahadev  or troublesome planets like Saturn, Rahu using mahamantra?

    Hare Krishna dear Devotees, please accept my humble obeisances! all glories to Srila Prabhupada!

    It says that if Krishna wants to kill some one NO ONE can protect him.

    Or if Krishna wants to protect some one then NO ONE can kill him.

    In this way Siddhartha Prabhuji, do not worry! All Planets are servants of Krishna. They act according the the sanction of Krishna. If we please Krishna then He will protect us from our own karma.

    We have to be gentlemen - very strong spiritual warriors as like Arjuna.

    Your servant,

    Sudipta Pr has already given the correct answer and meaning of Mahamantra. We chant Mahamantra to request the pleasure potency of Krsna to engage us in the service of Krsna. Its not a movie bhajan in which we can change one demigod name and replace the same with other.

    Mahamantra is the process best suited and subscribed by none other than Chaitanya Mahaprabhu who is Krsna Himself for this age of Kaliyug and meant for purifying us from material contamination and not to further enhance our materialistic desires or sense gratification.

    Please look at the point in bold for your answer.
    The offenses against chanting the holy name are as follows:
     

    1) To blaspheme the devotees who have dedicated their lives for propagating the holy name of the Lord.

    2) To consider the names of the demigods like Lord Siva or Lord Brahma to be equal to, or independent of, the name Lord Visnu.

    3) To disobey the orders of the spiritual master.

    4) To blaspheme the Vedic literature or literature in pursuance of the Vedic version.

    5) To consider the glories of chanting Hare Krsna to be imagination.

    6) To give some interpretation on the holy name of the Lord.

    7) To commit sinful activities on the strength of chanting the holy name of the Lord.

    8) To consider chanting of Hare Krsna one of the auspicious ritualistic activities offered in the Vedas as fruitive activities (karma-kanda).

    9) To instruct a faithless person about the glories of the holy name.

    10) To not have complete faith in the chanting of the holy names and to maintain material attachments, even after understanding so many instructions on this matter.

     

    The One and Only MEANING of Mahamantra is "O RADHARANI , O ENERGY OF KRISHNA, O KRISHNA PLEASE ENGAGE ME IN YOUR SERVICE, I HAVE NO OTHER PRAYER, PLEASE ACCEPT".......................apart from this there is no meaning of Mahamantra. Desiring other things during chanting is an offence to the Holy name.
