Nitaai vs Nityananda


Nityananda ! Gauranga ! Hare Krishna !
 
There is no difference between Nityananda and Nitaai.
 
Nityananda and Gauranga are authorised scriptural mantras
Devotee : In Praana Kriya I say Nitaai and not the authothorised mantra Nityananda
  then why do you say Nitaai Praana Kriya is also as powerful as chanting ?
    Swamiji: Nitaai is also an authorized two syllable Namatmaka Mantra, all Mantras are not specifically mentioned in the scriptures. But each bonafide principal Name of God is a Mantra

  Like it is mentioned in the Puranas that the name "Krishna" is itself a Mantra

  2-syllable Mantra
    Devotee : ohh wow
    Swamiji: Similarly for Nitaai and Gaura
     Devotee : you mean Nitaai Praana Kriya is also as powerful as Nityananda chanted on beads?

     Swamiji: Each Principal Name of God has full potency of the Lord whether it is big or small

   Yes, certainly
  No one in this world can say Nitaai is less powerful than Nityaananda
   The Lord behind both the Names is the same, so both the Names are equally powerful

      Devotee : wonderful
    ok, then lets say if I am watching television or at office doing some work then what would have a greater effect on me,        Nityananda chanted mentally very fast or Nitaai Praana Kriya ?

     Any one , which ever you feel convenient
    Devotee : still I want to work only under your order

  which one would you tell me to do ?
     Swamiji: For chanting of Tulasi beads, we chant the Mantras Nityaananda and Gauraangha
    
    Swamiji : but there is no such restriction while chanting anywhere and everywhere

    Devotee: no I mean not on Tulasi beads
  if I wanted to chant just in my mind
  without any beads
    Swamiji: Yes, you can chant in any one of the both
     Devotee: which one do you do Gurudev ?
  like right now what are you doing ?
     Swamiji: Both
  smile
     Devotee  : right now you are chanting Nitaai and Nityananda on beads u mean ?

    Swamiji: I am chanting Praana Kriyaa while sleeping
  No
      Devotee : then right nown while chatting with me are you doing Praana Kriya ?

     Swamiji: Yes
I sometimes meditate on the Sanskrit syllables of the Mantras also
  Lekhana Kriyaa
      Devotee : ohh ok
    Swamiji: while breathing Praana Kriyaa
     Devotee : ohh
  actually I am very confused right now for myself
 like right now both my hands are busy in typing
  then should I do Praana Kriya or mentally chant Nityananda
  this is waht I don't understand
    Swamiji: Yes, Praana Kriyaa will also be beneficial for you since it clam your mind with the Mantras
     Devotee : great
  then that is fixed
  I am going to make it my life and soul now
