Naran S Balakumar
Hare Rama mantra works in two different ways.
If you just chant “HARA RAMA HARE KRISHNA” then you will develop flexibility in your knees.
It is good mantra for knee pain. Even if you get hurt in the knees, you can chant this mantra.
Strengthen your heart
The other version – longer version of the mantra –
“HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE
HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE”
This mantra primarily works on our hearts. As you keep repeating it, it will improve your blood circulation.
In old age, the blood vessels will become aged and worn out. The work of the blood vessels is contraction and transmutation.
Only on contraction and then relaxing, the blood circulation will improve.
To keep the blood vessels and heart healthy, this mantra is very important.
Blocks in your heart
The work of the heart is to accumulate waste. Dirt means blocks.
What are the blocks in the heart – emotionally and mentally they are our feelings and physically it is the blocks – heart blocks as diagnosed by doctors and a need for by-pass surgery.
I am not saying don’t do by-pass surgery. Sometimes the patient mayn’t want to do by-pass surgery or due to old-age he cannot do it. At that time, say this mantra umpteen number of times.
While chanting the mantra, chant it at a good speed so that circulation of the blood will be faster too.
