Is there any need to count the numbers while chanting the Maha Mantra? When a child calls out his mother’s name with love, he would not count the number of times he called out. Would he?

Question

 

Is there any need to count the numbers while chanting the Maha Mantra? 

 

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

 

When a child calls out his mother's name with love, he would not count the number of times he called out. Would he? When Nama Kirtan is done with true love and devotion, the count doesn't matter.

 

Though it is a fact that you are liberated even if you chant the Maha Mantra once, chant continuously if you desire a sorrow-free journey through life and if you wish to see God face-to-face within this lifetime.

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
