The Importance of Prayer

In this next session of The Japa Room we will be discussing the importance of composing a personal prayer before chanting on our beads. It's has been said by great devotees there is a neccessity of chanting with the heart and not mechanically. By giving a 100% of ourselves to Japa time,  one can concentrate properly and certainly will be avoiding  offenses like inattention. When composing a prayer, we tend to focus more our hearts on it...we remember everything we need to be aware of before chanting. We have the example of Srila Prabhupada that before arriving in America made a very beautiful prayer:

"How will I make them understand this message of Krsna Counsciousness. I am very unfortunate, unqualified and the most fallen. Somehow or other, oh Lord, You have brought me here to speak about You. Now my Lord it's up to You to make me a success or a failure as You like."
