HpS - AGTSP. Paoho. As our instrument gets older, we cannot chant for long time without our throat becoming very inflamed, so we have to chant more softly. Then it is a challenge to concentrate. That is good because it prepares us for death or transfer to Vaikuntha where we will not have a throat to reflect our Japa.
