Someone Asked Premanand Ji Maharaj: SomeHow should Mantra be chanted as per spiritual injunctions should all the Mantra heard in satsang be chanted this way too(How should mantras be chanted ? Like krishnaye vasudevaye haraye paramatmane).
Premanand Ji Maharaj Says: Mantra is what is provided by the guru remember that reading and reciting is different a mantra. that is passed down in Guru sad tradition is a proven Mantra. when it enters the years the guru tells you the process to chant it realizing a Mantra by yourself will be very difficult.
The Mantra realized to the guru sad is potent because of various Saints in the tradition have realized it and when it is received it is like a spark of fire if you place it on a little hay it can become a blazing fire if you had to create a scarp from friction yourself it is much harder.
The mantras are all sachidanand but it should be received Via guru if you walk the path of God then the first thing that will happen is you will find a guru see dhruv ji was slapped and grabbed by his stepmother.
She said if you want to sit in the Lap of your father the king then do tapasia austerities and pray to God that you may be born from my womb and not your mothers she told him that he was upset he went to his mother and told her she said this is true because the king does not even consider me a maid servant even though I'm the head Queen he's attracted to his young wife suruchi.
So what she's saying is correct for the position you want to attain you must pray to God these words are true if you pray to him he will give you anything you want he understood he was only 5 years and left he did not have to find a guru or pray naruni met him on the way to the forest and asked where are you going he said you must know what happened I will go to the forest now and please God narad muni said oh let's go to the Palace now I will order the king and he will not disobey me.
He will Crown you air parent the said I'm being I just started and I was offered the position of Prince I will definitely continue and do bhajan Narad Muni told him there are many lions, snakes , scorpions in the jungle trying both angles enticement fear he said I'm a kshatriya by birth I decided and now I will not step back even if I die Narda saw his conviction and gave him Guru Mantra right away he didn't have to ask nther gave him the 12 syllable Mantra in 6 months he realized God because he got a realized Mantra from the guru.
So I think that we should get a guru and by getting the Mantra from him we can achieve success very fast maharaj in you had revealed the Krishna Mantra(krishnaye vasudevaye haraye paramatmane) how should that be chanted then this is a prayer it is a call for help and you should call for help with humility with desperation jarasandh captured 20,000 Kings for sacrifice and the sacrifice day was coming close the Kings would be sacrificed like animals they knew that only Krishna can save them.
So they requested a messenger to go to dwarka to request Krishna to save them and with humility they were calling out very desperately(krishnaye vasudevaye haraye paramatmane).
The key thing here is humility desperation oh Krishna only you can relieve the sorrow of your dependence so Krishna went to save them he tore jarasandh into two and freed the Kings this Mantra is a proven Mantra to relieve the Sorrows but don't chant it unless you purify yourself after using the toilet it's a Vedic Mantra so chant yourself.
After you purify yourself the key is to call it with humility with despiration oh Krishna no one can help us but you this is how you should feel the Mantra is miraculous understand that (ॐ कृष्णाय वासुदेवाय हरये परमात्मने ॥ प्रणतः क्लेशनाशाय गोविंदाय नमो नमः ॥) it's a proven Mantra from if you remember God constantly then you don't even have to pray to him to remove Sorrows but if you're not at that level then then you Chan this Mantra it is a realized Mantra it will not be wasted.

Q: How should mantras be chanted according to spiritual teachings?
Ans: Mantras hold immense spiritual significance and are traditionally passed down through guru-disciple lineages. Chanting a mantra is more than mere recitation; it involves a sacred process imparted by a guru. Attempting to realize a mantra independently can be challenging, as the potency of a mantra lies in its lineage and the realizations of saints within that tradition.

Q: How crucial is it to find a guru on the spiritual path?
Ans: Finding a guru is considered fundamental on the spiritual path.
