Comment on Who Can Chant Gayatri Mantra? by Ragsha

Thanks for the detailed information…, I am a female, i too like to Gaythri Manthra but one of the prohithar advised me that if u feels happy when saying this, u can say bu the ladies sud not say this mantra becos of the huge power. But what i feel is that , when i get peace while saying the gayathri nama… whats wrong is going happen for me. I can agree only with the thing is we have to be very clean and neat while saying the mantras only GOD should be in us…. Hope i am writing the right one
May the good lord bless us all………… even it is a mistake…

Question about major currency. What currency is treated as major currency? Is Australian Dollars treated as major currency? If yes, then perhaps I need not convert it into Baht.

Glad you liked the cartoon… and thanks for the other two links. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I apparently have to go exercise if I want to think of a good idea for the next drawing.

Cheers,

I think not to chant Gayatri is pure speculation created by us. Clearly Lord Krishna says in Bhagvad Gita that among all mantras I am gayatri…..Show me one scripture directly spoken by GOD prohibits us from chanting any Mantra….or Mantra chanting is sinfull????…WHAT CAN REALLY GO WRONG IN CHANTING GODS NAME??? Use your intelligence in what seems right…

Mantras are for the benefit of humanity. Then why should there be rrestrictions as to whom and when to be recited. If the mantras are intended to be kept secret, why they were revealed out. There is no point in arguing that only certain persons alone should recite a mantra. It is only cheating or on the otherhand it is only selfishness.Let us take an example if a teacher doesn’t teach students the lessons intendd for the First standard then how can the children get enlightened and how they will go to the next higher standaed. In such a way the mantras are for the uplift of human community and either if it is forbidden to anyone or if it is not taught the very purpose of mantra is itself defeated. So mantras have to be revealed to everybody and the benefit should serve the people, otherwise it is only foolishness or selfishness to create rrestrictions as to its use and recital. A car is devised not to keep it idle but people should be permitted to ride on it otherwise the very purpose of devising a car is itself defeated. Therefore mantras are for entire humanity and not only for certain sects.To know and understand this one should not search vedhas, puranas etc it is simple logic.Some mantras are for doing harm for others, I completely endorse this view. In that case those mantras are to be taught for eligible persons only. The teacher or guru should take a stand that these harmful mantras are to be taught to persons who are capable of controlling their feelings and they are well deserved to be taught so that no harm will be caused to anybody unless and otherwise these harmful mantras to be utilised.

You might know about the new regulation of Thai Immigration. In order to limit the amount of foreigners using “back-to-back” border runs, Thai Immigration has issued a new regulation regarding the 30 days tourist exemption. Effective immediately, travellers without visa will get only 15 days of stay if they are arriving via a land border checkpoint from a neighboring country.
