Q : Dear Guru Maa, I would like to begin japa practice as part of my daily sadhana. I don't know which mantra to chant or how many rounds. Please guide me.

Answer Josh, I do not know who your personal deity is or whom you are inclined towards, because the conditioning of the mind plays a very big game in this. But I would suggest that maybe you can begin with the “Om” mantra. Om has nothing to do with Hindu religion. It is some how coincidently or accidentally that the Hindu sages were able to relate this sound vibration which is happening at the atomic levels. It is not a sound which is created; it is a sound which is happening, that’s why it is called the primordial sound.
