Repetition in spiritual practices
Hare Krsna, Prabhuji, Dandavat Pranam,
Sravanam is one of the 9 ways in devotional service and is the only way recommended in Kaliyuga for all living entities as mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam and other Puranas, in the form of Harinam Sankirtan.
Because by Sravanam i.e by hearing we can see Lord Sri Krsna. Through Hearing, we understand the Lord.
As recommended by our spiritual Guru Srila Prabuupada, I daily listen to Srimad Bhagavatam and try to hear chanting of Harinama, read his books and eat only Prasadam.
Question is why repetition is recommended to understand the Lord ?
Because when I want to know how the food tastes, I only eat a sample of it, and can immediately experience the taste of that food. There is instant experience in the material world.
But same is not the case in the spiritual world. We have to repeat and repeat, the devotional activities so we can finally taste the name of the Lord.
Its a basic question, Prabhuji, from my ignorant level, so please help me to understand this.
Thank you.
