Japa is what? it’s miles a sound which can remind you of that country of feeling.for example, if you say mango, the phrase mango itself right away offers you the concept and the sensation of the fruit. in case you are fond of mangoes your mouth begins watering. there’s a directresponse. Say Christmas or Diwali, it mechanically generates the sensation of gifts and birthday celebration.
So, tajjapastadartha bhavanam method, when you say Om you do not forget the totality of the being this isthe very middle of this existence, that is loose from distress and that’s all love, unconditional love. The sound Om reminds you of the Lord of the advent.
