What I am trying to get to the bottom of is this: Why would one chant one thing over another? For what spiritual reason or rationale? Without that all we need for the thread is a poll. (1) Do you chant Sat Nam? or (2) Do you chant Waheguru?
Narayanjot ji,
Perhaps I could help shed a little light on your questions.
Chanting, well I guess by know we now used to be Pagan by now, which means that at one time in my life I was a practiioner of magik.
In training for magik, it is important to realise that constant repition serves to focus the mind soley on what ever it is you are chanting.
So 'Waheguru, waheguru, waheguru' helps to focus the mind on the formless lord. As I say though, Simran is more than just chanting, it is deep mediatation, focused and aided by chanting.
Myself, I use 'Waheguru'.
