The word gomukhi means 'in the shape of a cow's mouth'. It is a small bag which resembles the shape of a cow's mouth. The mala and your right hand are both placed inside the gomukhi so that they are obscured from view. With your hand in the bag, you then begin to rotate the mala, the bottom of which is supported by the bottom of the bag. A gomukhi is very light, doesn't interfere with the practice of japa and prevents other people interfering or becoming curious about your practice. It can be used when you walk along a street or when you leave your house. It is widely used by those who do anusthana (sustained practice for long, fixed periods of time), perhaps 50,000 to 60,000 beads per day. For them it is almost a must.
Tulsi as an Ayurvedic medicine. Tulsi has an important role within many traditions of Hinduism, wherein devotees perform worship involving Tulsi plants or leaves. Every hindu family has a tulsi plant in specially built structure. Mostly family often keep a tulsi in front of there home. In India two types of tulsi one is Krishna tulsi (Dark Tulasi) and another is Ram Tulsi (Light Tulsi).
There are 108 beads of Tulsi in one Mala it may be used either japa or for wearing on the neck. Tulsi Malas are the most suitable for meditation and japa. Devotees of Vishnu, Rama, Lord Krishna, etc wear the sacred tulsi mala on their necks as a sign of their devotion to the Lord.
Meditation is a very important science, but there are many who cannot practice it. Some can, but do not receive proper guidance from a guru. Such spiritual aspirants often complain of distractions in meditation. Therefore, great importance has been assigned to japa yoga. Japa is a method of spiritual communion through the repetition of mantra. By continued repetition you create certain vibrations in your system. Mantra repetition purifies the physical body and fills the mind with spiritual vitality. The practice of japa frees one from tensions and a host of mental vagaries. According to realized saints, repetition of the mantra gives perfect knowledge of God and is the best medium for communion with God.
Power of mantra
In japa yoga you should proceed with the conviction that the mantra which is recited is very powerful and that it confers siddhis. This fact has been amply demonstrated. It is within common experience that various fevers are removed by certain mantras meant for the purpose. So also hypertension, hysteria and blood pressure can be cured.
It is evident that there is a divine power latent in each mantra which is released through faith and willpower. Our hypothesis is that the real power is in the mantra itself. Just as the explosive power latent in a cartridge remains unreleased unless fired through a rifle, likewise the divine power in any mantra remains unreleased unless approached through faith and willpower. In addition, it is necessary to aim the mantra with one-pointed. When the mantra is awakened and becomes potent, its presiding deity or invisible power comes into operation.
According to occultism, there are invisible powers and deities hidden in every mantra beyond ordinary vision. If anyone were to argue that a mantra is simply an arrangement of syllables, nobody would believe it because this view is scientifically untenable.
