No Harm in Chanting Incorrectly If you Love God.

Jai Shri Ram

Some people could feel that they do not know the correct pronunciation, and so do not want to chant incorrectly.but there is no harm in chanting incorrectly as well with out knowing the correct meaning.
for example : mother to whom a child goes and asks for an orange. The child does not know how to pronounce the word "orange", and so asks for "ange". The mother does not turn away the child and does not refuse to give the child the orange just because the child does not know how to pronounce the word.
It is the spirit or bhava that matters, and so as long as one chants the name of God withsincerity, considerations such as not knowing the meaning, not knowing the pronunciation, etc., do not matter, and God who is the Mother of all of us will confer His blessings on us.
