Meditate on the Hymn

Meditate on the hymn that is to be chanted Meditate on the god who is being worshipped. Meditate on the metre in which, the hymn is being chanted. Meditate on the direction facing which, the hymn is being chanted. Such meditation leads to the desired fruits.

The gods resorted to hymns and metres to protect themselves from death. The first part of any incantation consists of the word oum. The gods uttered this sacred word and were freed from the clutches of death. He who worships oum, is freed from all fear and becomes immortal.

Chanting brings emotion to devotion and Brahman recognizes the purity of the devotee.
