Joy Of Satan Forums

So, I looked up Surya and other mantras, like for example on sanskritdictionary.org/ and found that 'Surya', at least on that website, is 'Soo(oo as in blue)r(r as in roma, retroflex and no roll)yuh (as in cut). So I tried it for a while, then I decided to go back to the Maxine Dietrich pronunciation and found it personally to actually WORK, unlike the standard vibration. Mind you, I vibrated each one in a monotone pitch.

I politely ask: does Maxine happen to understand diacritics in Sanskrit? I think so, but would please like more information regarding this, if possible.
Are you sure Maxine's pronunciations are correct? Just asking, because I think they are, but again I would like some input, maybe some clarification/confirmation regarding this. Are standard Sanskrit mantras in the mainstream inferior to JoS?

Also, how exactly do you pronounce The Zodiac Manras? Is it E (AY as in Day, for example in Mesha) i (EE as in see, as in Rishaba) a (ah as in father, again, as i Rishaba.) Are these the vowels for the Zodiac Mantras? I would really like to know if I'm pronouncing these correctly, please, please confirm this or please show me how to pronounce them. I saw a post with these and I was confused. Thanks!

I learned to pronounce, by feeling the vibrations. I have an accent so going by descriptions doesn't always work for me (unless I am used to the individual person's descriptions, such as Maxine or Cobras RTR's), I have to feel it out and figure out which works best. Fortunately I can feel easily, so I only need to do a few reps one way, then a few reps another way, and decide which is effective.

HPS Maxine's pronunciations are correct, because by copying her, I can feel that it is correct.

Bottom line: learn to trust yourself, and experiment
