What is Jagannath Gomukhi?
Jagannath Gomukhi (जगन्नाथ गौमुखी) is a sacred item for chanting mantras. The Gomukhi Mudra is easily formed while chanting mantras in the Jagannath Gomukhi. The index and little fingers easily extend outward while chanting, preventing pain in the hands and allowing the practitioner to focus on the sadhana. Keeping the Rosary beads in the Jagannath Gomukhi keeps them safe and free from dirty hands. Devotees who regularly chant the mantra gain peace, concentration, and spiritual energy.
Why is the Gomukhi Mudra essential for chanting mantras?
Chanting mantras with the Gomukhi Mudra is considered scriptural. Chanting mantras without the Gomukhi Mudra results in a mantra chanting defect. This prevents the practitioner from reaping the benefits of chanting mantras. In a way, the practitioner’s meditation time is wasted. Therefore, a good Gomukhi bag is used in every meditation and mantra chanting.
How should one chant mantras with the Jagannath Gomukhi?
To chant with the Jagannath Gomukhi, place the beads inside the bag and hold the beads on the Ring finger of your Right hand, using your thumb to stop the beads and the middle finger to chant. Start with the Sumeru bead and pull it towards you while chanting. When all the beads are complete, do not go beyond the Sumeru bead; instead, turn the beads inward (U-turn) and begin chanting again.
