Hi everyone, I need some guidance from experienced sadhakas.

I regularly chant the Gayatri mantra mentally (2 rounds of 108 daily). Lately, it feels like the mantra has taken over my subconscious, but not in a peaceful way. The word "prachodayat" just loops non-stop in my mind all day long on autopilot.

Along with this constant mental looping, I’ve been feeling a huge surge of frustration, random anger, and just a lot of restless energy that I don't know what to do with. It feels like a pressure cooker situation in my head.

Is this a normal phase of cleansing/purification, or am I overdoing it? Should I stop the japa for a bit, or is there a specific way to ground this energy? Any advice would be highly appreciated.
