🔱 Standard procedure for any kind of japa, mantra. Golden rules to remember.
•No japa, mantra or chanting or any strotram should be done without apt knowledge or dīkṣā from an able Guru.
•Everyone is not destined to get a Guru and you do not get guru’s through

advertisements, hence simple hari naam saṃkīrtana, lighting lamp for God in morning and evening, chanting shiva nāma etc. are best.
•Going to a proper temple is very important. Laziness, greediness and ease of living will restrict this.
•Start your mantra with Ganpati ḍhyān
, do mental offerings to Sri Ganapati, Kuladevtha etc and then do the required meditation.
•Always tell the deities to go back to their respective domains after the prayers and offer apologies for recalling them. This is udvāsana and Kshama paan.
•Always clean yourself first
and then sit in clean surroundings during pooja. Torn clothes, clothes with holes, growth of nails, untidy hair should be totally avoided during upāsana.
•Never accept mantras from books, newspapers or gullible advertisements. It will be a lifetime regret.
•Tapasya is
different from all this. It includes sleeping on floor, brahmacharya, eating only once a day, observing mauna and taking vows for fast. It is not meant for ordinary people and not very apt for grihastha.
•Remember your karmas cannot be reduced by buttering or chanting mantras
of Gods. You will reap as you sow. God helps but only those who love him and those who don’t go begging every second day in a temple. Nobody likes being stalked all day not even God.
•God is afraid of love, because it has no motive. Motives kill bhakti.

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
