Posted by Aravind S on April 19, 2015 at 11:20am in Krishna

Hare krishna,

                   All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

                   Can We Chant Narsimha Mahamantra without taking initiation?

                              

                         Sri Nrisimha Maha-mantra

                           ugram viram maha-vishnum
                           jvalantam sarvato mukham
                           nrisimham bhishanam bhadram
                           mrityur mrityum namamy aham

    Hare Krishna Prabhu! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!

    Not answering your question Prabhu but I recited that verse and my body sort of warmed up, and it felt wonderful. Thank you for introducing this verse to me!

    Hare KRsna Prabhuji,

    PAMHO.

    Your question put me in doubt. I have been chanting/ repeating this mantra for years and I am still not initiated. I dont think there is any rule for getting initiated to chant this mantra.

    Haribol,

    Your servant,

    Rashmi
