Hare Krishna devotees, Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
I am new to iskcon but I don't know my mind gets more attached to Lord Vishnu than Lord Krishna. I think my heart wants to follow dasya rasa to Lord Vishnu but I also want my heart to follow sakhya ras to Lord Krishna, Should I chant Om Namo Narayan more or Hare Krishna Mantra more, right now my mind gets more attracted to Lord Vishnu and very little bit to Lord Krishna. Can't a soul change its swarupa because Vaikuntha only has Dasya rasa but not sakhya ras, I want both. How should I do my sadhna.
Thanks devotees and please answer my humble question.

But mataji won't I get vaikuntha or liberation of I don't chant hare krishna mahamantra, are only lord vishnu mantras enough for me to attain him?? Radhe radhe
There is Dyava mantra ( Srimannaryana charanam Sharanam Prapadhye)
this mantra can be taken at any time any place in sarva aavastha
Which is an alternative to taking Om Namo Narayanaya mantra.
for now you can chant that.
Hanuman chalisa is great. Lord Sri Rama is great. Jai
Sri Rama Koti you can write?
1 crore names of Lord Sri Rama nama?
Take a book and write name SRI RAMA SRI RAMA SRI RAMA and daily chant hanuman chalisa.
It is enough for delivarance from this material bondages also. in due course of time you will get the taste in Krishna too.

Mataji, let me tell you my personal view, I'm 20 and from childhood I was more attracted to god's like sri rama who were puroshottam and very calm and composed and same goes with sri narayan, but in case of lord sri krsna he's mischievous and and very funny and naughty in a good way but I have always liked gods who are Calm and composed that's why I am not attracted that much to Lord sri krsna and because of that I don't feel heartly Good while chanting hare krishna but I feel very good in heart while chanting sri narayana or sri rama. My grandmother used to recite Hanuman chalisa when I was very little maybe 3-4 yrs of age so j know full hanuman chalisa from my childhood, so should I really chant hare krsna if I don't like it that much, so can I chant narayan names and sri rama or Hanumanji, I am sorry if I offended your faith. Pls answer my humble question. Thanks for your advice and radhe radhe..
yep. I am from south India.
I am now 46 yr old
got inclined in bhakti maybe from 2011 ( in this life time).
But I do listen to other acharyas in the parampara ( sri vaishnavism) after my guru maharaj left we have his lineage gurus' giving intiation and they are all great scholars and teacher. I listen to all which includes Iskcon guru's as wel
I think I am too late. I see all of you are so much advanced even at young age you, .. Akshit just a small kids is so much interested in devotion. Humari baat chhodo.. just focus on ur bhakti.
You guys are all young and so lucky you could get into bhakti at an young age.
Meri buddhi bhagwan ki ore nahi tha bahut time tak. Even after initiation I got into bhakti later. ( Yes I followed all regulative principles as I was born in Vaishnavaite family)
But jo aaye mere ko pehle Krishna hi aaye.. narayan toh baad mein samaj aaye.
Chant Hare Krishna mahamantra. Simple and easy and covers all Gods.
Hare = Shree Radha
Krishna= is none other than Narayana Himself
Rama => has Shree Rama Which is loved by Hanumaan ji.
Why take so many pains to go with each name?
Waise.., dekha jaaye toh
Rama has Ra and Ma.
Ra means Radha
Ma means Madhava
And one more question mataji, can I chant names of Bhagwan narayan, and also Radhaji and also Hanumanji as I like all these diety?
Pls accept and answer my humble question.
Radhe radhe
By the way mataji, are you from South India and at what age did you inclined in bhakti ?
Greetings and radhe radhe
No my aacharya is of the age of Srila Prabhupada when he gave me diksha. after giving me diksha in a few years he left the wold to Parama Padam Vaikuntham.
I am more than fortunate to get initiated from such a senior most vaishnavaite it is also a predestined thing happened so quickly without me interferring in deciding who which guru or chosing. AAcharya came into my life as if pre planned by Lord.
As I told everything in my life is happening reversely.
I got diksha first and then I started to read Srila Prabhupada books later when I learnt that my diksha guru passed away.
So my Siksha guru is Srila Prabhupada ONLY.
I am indebted to Srila Prabhupadaa as He came in my dream and said Okay you can stay in my aashrama.. and gave me small job of keeping his room tidy.
For this reason I am with Srila Prabhupada ji.
The characteristic way in which Srila Prabhupada ji said in dream was like Okay YOu..stay here .. in my ashram and take care of my room. Keep it clean .. uh .. daily. is enough of a blessing I got.
Hare Krishna
Ok prabhuji I will keep that in mind
Have you heard Srila Prabhupada?
He quotes sastra so nicely.
Had he simply said that I heard it from my guru without quoting from sastra then his statements would not appear so authoritative. Isn't it?
It is the trademark of a highly advanced devotee that he gives proper reference for whatever he says from sastra.
So it is nice only if you get in the habit of providing reference from authoritative source to substantiate your statements.
