Chanting before you meditate can greatly enhance your practice, because it helps to command the attention of your thoughts and direct them dynamically towards God.

Yogananda introduced a new kind of chanting in the West that is based on the repetition of meaningful phrases. In this kind of chanting you are singing to God in a deeply intimate and loving way-which is the most magnetic way of all, if we are to draw His response.

Chanting can be done just by singing, or you can use an instrument, or play a recording.
