Dear Sri Ravi, Thanks for the wonderful explanation on Lalitha Trishati. I just came to know about your blog and started reading the various posts - It's really awesome! Hats off to your service and to your knowledge! I have a question on Lalitha Trishati - Is it necessary to always recite it as 300 names mantra rather than as a 59 verses song? I have been reciting it as song - should I change to mantra? Please advice.

There is no doubt that Bhakti is very important. But this does not mean that we can pronounce wrongly. If we are not able to pronounce properly, then we can visualize concerned Deity and chant Its name alone.

I found this quote online about the Soundarya Lahari: "The concept of ‘intense’ devotion does not care for the language used, or for the manner of worship. It is the intensity of devotion and depth of feeling that matter. But getting that intensity and depth is the most difficult thing. That is exactly what eludes us. Now that is where the beauty of such blessed poetry like ‘Soundaryalahari’ excels. Whether you understand it or not, whether you pronounce the words correctly or not, the very attempt itself of reciting it produces in you the needed bhakti! This is the word-power of the words of such blessed poetry. The vibrations of the words give us all the material and spiritual success. We have only to keep the objective of bhakti steadfast in our minds. Everything else just follows." Would you agree with this?

There is no need to add extra counts. Extra counts are based on beeds in a mālā, say, 51, 54 or 108. It is enough if count is made for 100, 1000, 5000, etc.

Dear Sir, for 1000 counts we add 8 extra counts, for 3000 or 5000 counts how much should we add. Kindly suggest
