Introduction
Welcome to 21 days chanting session. This session is for your benefit. Just a little preparation from your side will maximize the benefit of this session. Can we make sure:
1. we are in a quiet place. We are sitting very comfortably with a stable body.
2. we are going to keep our mind 100% with chanting for the purification.
Alright! What makes human being special from animals are its 10 special human qualities called Human-Dharma: The patience, The forgiveness Control over Indriyas, purity, wisdom, the developed intellect, the Truth, No anger, etc. Let us take this opportunity to introspect for a moment – Do we have adequate patience in life? Do we get impatient very soon? Is majority of our restlessness related to lack of patience? The session today is dedicated to instill the quality of patience in you. Let us begin the purification session with the swarved chanting.

It is the ten attributes of Dharma that make a human being different from animals. Without Dharma, human-being would also behave like animals and would suffer the restlessness of mind. The word – Dharmik must not be confused by mere external display of any religious practice. But Dharmik is only the one whose thought, speech and actions are based on these attributes. If I do not show the quality of patience, forgiveness, truthfulness or control over mind and senses, will I really be called Dharmik- No.. absolutely not. One has to be Dharmik from inside. It is not a tag obtained by the practice of any religious rituals externally but it is a thing to internalize in character, It is a thing to become.
I am living a life with patience, forgiveness, control on my indriya, truth, purity, no anger, wisdom- who would not wish a life of such peace, purity and bliss. We are beginning to internalize these qualities. The journey has begun today with the quality of Patience.Patience is the basis of all great deeds. Great opportunities are lost all due to lack of patience. With patience comes peace and joy.
Concluding Message
These 21 days of chanting therapy is dedicated to the birth anniversary celebration of his holiness Sant Pravar Sri Vigyandeo ji Maharaj. Here Sant Pravar Shri Vigyan Dev Ji Maharaj is saying – In this modern world, people have confined the spirituality within the boundaries of Karma. We often regard a person as spiritual if he is indulging into good karmas. We consider that doing our work honestly and sincerely is equivalent to worshiping god. But we forget to understand that spirituality has a deep meaning. It is very vast that confining it in the limits of Karma is nothing but a true ignorance.
