Dear all,

I am new to Hindu meditation and mantra chanting. I am chanting since three months.

Recently while i chanting "Sri Gayatri Mantra" morning at 5.00 clock with Rudraksha japa mala wore and another in hand to count, after 20 minutes of chanting i start feel pain in left and right extreme side of my forehead.

I count only 54 times. I sit erect calm after my bath for chanting.

Am I mistaking in procedure for chanting or
is there any best procedure for it or
this sort of pain is normal and usual during chanting?

May I know if there is such. Advance thanks for your kind help and advise.

Regards,
Charles
