Pot

In my humble opinion, the pot (or alchohol or any other intoxicating drug) habit is a liability in a persons life. If you don't need pot then you are relatively more free. Instead of dealing with ones mind through pot, I recommend meditation. We will talk about mantra meditation in later posts. Depression can be overcome by chanting. In fact the meaning of mantra, in the ancient sanskrit language is to deliver or free the mind. According to ancient tradition some people chant the Hare Krishna maha-mantra  a minimum number of times a day. You can start with 108 times a day or 1 "round"  called as such because there are 108 beads not including the one large end bead on a strand of traditional chanting beads. If you don't have beads you can count in some other way for starters. Here's something cool  to check out:  http://www.krsnabook.com/george/
