Do you do the full sadhana? Life "sucks" (dukkha) with or without the mantra... much more without the mantra IMO. Is it still the arthritis? Sure it isn't oxalates or something else :-P I feel like I always get secret solutions and synchronicity when I do the mantra + take massive action (as Bill Bodri talks about in his book White Fat Cow). Like things fall into place. But only after lots of initial effort and wanting... but could it have just happened regardless? I just have been addicted because of the pleasant feelings I get and dharma symbolism surrounding each arms, serving as a foundation for other practices.

That's really fascinating... I've had similar very clear shifts in karmic affinities when practicing versus not practicing. It is better to diffuse one's negative karma with a little bit of bearable pain than in other more fatal or unbearable ways. Definitely wouldn't be the first spiritual practice where deities use their nirmanakaya manifestations to help clear someone's energy system or life karma. May actualy be common to all genuine spiritual traditions. Anyway, just sharing this video and FB group for those interested: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cundibuddha

Breath stopping (xi) is normal even in the earlier levels of samadhi. Heart stopping is possible at the 3rd jhana/samadhi. There are stories of hindu samadhi masters even being buried for days while in samadhi. However, it would be good to know your practice regimen and if it is naturally induced (due to consciousness) it would be good not to be alarmed/stressed by such a natural phenomenon (which can harm the system).

Yes definitely! No one can help the self-victimizing. But there is certainly some sort of "outside" influence and help via aka nirmanakaya manifestation when uttering the specific mantra of a specific being. It might even be able to penetrate whatever wall of self-pity and evil one shrouds oneself with...

Thanks, I have various recordings of it being pronounced that way. Here is a link to my folder, not sure if I shared it before: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhD4wIhahXFSg7YxufxI28XtmzCVRA Can you record yourself pronounce it and share? I don't think I'm going to learn sanskirt anytime soon lol Also are you sure about the last line? Is it not "ohm zhurli zhule zhunti soha"?

Cool! I listen to a lot of Sadhguru... which talk was that?

Interesting... Any particular links you can share? I find it surprising it is "chundi"... it all feels very chinese... especially since I'm pretty sure the "chale" is referring to the popular hindu deity "kali", right? I guess the masses have been pronouncing it wrong?

I've been practicing a long time the chinese transliteration per master nan's instructions and I've recently switched up to the sanskirt pronunciation. Any sanskirt experts know how do you pronounce the last part? Phonetically here is how i pronounce it: Namo sadoh nah samyak sam-buddha koteenam tadyatha ohm kalee kulee kunde soha! I appreciate your thoughts.

I'd like source, methodology, and translation please? Also an english pronunciation audio/guide would be great. Bill explains that in his audio it is the one-pointedness that matters most (so even incorrect pronunciation but doubt-free one-pointedness will work) however I'd like to know especially this being so darn long. This dharani really feels like the usnise vijaya dharani, too.

The one with the pinkies is dangerous, it will summon a big energy field explosion like in Kung Fu Panda... "skidoosh" Jokes aside, I like that one since it hurts fingers less. Holding the one that Master nan suggested (2nd) kinda hurts after a while..

Does anyone do that FULL full mantra? Because I am used to only doing the 2nd stanza. The whole thing does sound very beautiful however. Attached are a few zhunti audios I like--I have more if you guys are interested. The 3rd one is great as wake-up tone! 准提菩萨-天使波罗蜜.wma 佛母准提神咒-黑鸭子.wma female_clear_echo_more.mp3

Wow a few hours? Like multi-tasking or just full focus sadhana? Does your girlfriend practice, too?

Yeah, I sometimes do it while falling asleep and I can feel the energies becoming lighter and lighter to some level of satisfaction.... If I do it too long my pinky hurts though. I need to find a way to not make my pinky hurt after 30 min of doing it... Yeah wow, I wonder if they took it down due to image copyright. Have you guys read Nyasa Yoga by Bill Bodri? It's a new book and he talks about special mantras that can help raise the yang chi (in addition to Zhunti mantra).

End of each recitation cycle I took to mean after each session, however short (even one minute). The visualizing part is not a "might show up"... BIll explained in his how to mantra audiotape it should be like it just appears. FOr example, think of an apple. You just saw it your mind right? You did not have to make any effort in imagining it correct? Same with things like imagining a woman you like and sexual acts involved... you do not have to make any effort in visualization... it just happens. Have the same attitude towards visualization. I also recommend Bill's newest book on visualization. It is a gem.
