Hi Red Thread,

Can I ask if you were given this practice by a teacher, or did you decide to do it yourself?

I wonder perhaps if you weren't instructed to do daily sessions of mantra recitation and you're feeling sad and having a lot of emotional reactions, it might be better if you did breath meditation, which helps calm and relax the mind and body rather than agitate them.

with kind wishes to you,

Aloka-D
