Just would like to give one coment about today sunday programm ,on 28 of September.
During Japa chunt, all of us i think noticed unusial way of doing it today, not just Chunt but doing so drawligly,like I think Maha-mantra should be chunt from now on, what you think ?
Today I was upset ,that it was just 15 minuts chut :(

Hare Krishna Yegor, thanks for your comment. I'm not sure I understand your point? Are you talking about the chanting of the Hare Krishna maha mantra on beads? Please clarify - thank you.

Because we do it every week I'm trying to think back and remember if there was anything different about last week :-) The only thing I can think of - and please forgive me if I'm not understanding your point correctly - is that when we chant as a group we do so more slowly due to the fact that all of us (30 to 50 people depending on the day in question) are pronouncing the words at the same time. When we chant japa alone we usually speak more quickly as it is just us speaking so sounds different. If this is what you are referring to then this is perfectly fine, it is just a style of public recitation which sounds different than personal japa. It sounds similar if you attend a fire ceremony where the priest and others chant various other prayers together. This of course is not meant to replace our personal chanting. I'm delighted to hear that you wished there was more - that shows you are advanced and we're glad to have you as part of our community!
