The second mode of mantra practice is one of the most powerful forms that requires no musical accompaniment at all, one that we can enjoy anytime we feel inspired to, rather than at the fixed time of a public kirtan event, and one that allows us to dive deeply and one-pointedly into the mantra that we’ve chosen to support us in our highest intentions.
