re : mantra deeksha.

[dromkarasreekrishna]

dear all, pranams. kindly let me know about mantradeeksha. i do sandhyavandanam and after that i do vasudev mantra japa . this mantra has been given as upadesha by a vedapathi and panchangkarta here on margashisrha shukla ekadashi on mobile phone at a particular muhurtham . well i had asked for a mantra for health ; wealth ; peace and spiritual upliftment . so he gave me this mantra. i recite this mantra after reading the proper sankalpa. i want to know whether this qualifies as mantra deeksha or mantra upadesha.

with kind regards.
