If you chant the Mahamantra, please listen with a concentrated mind to the Holy Names that you are chanting. I know that it is very difficult. Everytime your mind starts to wander, pull it back to the Holy Names. Exercise in doing that everytime and you will see, that you will succeed.
When you are chanting Krishna's names, He will appeare before you. He will come like how a guest would come to your house. So, if you not concentrate on your guest , who is now in your house, he will leave. The same with Krishna. If you are not concentrating on Him, who is now in front of you as a guest, he will leave again.
So, my dear prabhu, by pulling the mind always at the Lotusfeet of Krishna, you will be able to chant perfect one day.
Radha Radha.
Hare Krishna,
PAMHO! AGTSP!
There are a few things which have helped me in my chanting. I had heard them in a lecture on japa by H.G Radha Gopinath Prabhu in Kolhapur:
1. Just one mantra....... this helps in concenterating on the mantra we are chanting... dont even think this mantra or the previous one etc.... one mantra
2. giving our mind instruction before we begin chanting... that now I have to concenterate on my rounds listening to the holy name .... no other thoughts
3.just hearing as we chant... with clear pronunciation
I keep reminding myself of these few insturction.... Though my mind too keeps wandering... these instructions help me.
