The devotee is fixed in his vow as an eternal servant of the Lord

Nama Article 26^th June 2008

evam-vratah sva-priya-nama-kirtya jatanurago druta-citta uccaih

hasaty atho roditi rauti gayaty unmada-van nrtyati loka-bahyah

(Srimad Bhagavatam 11:2:40)

Evam-vratah. Vrata means vow. Our vow should be to Chant the Divine Name that we love.

The devotee is fixed in his vow as an eternal servant of the Lord, and he gradually becomes very much attached to a particular name and form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

As his heart melts with ecstatic love, he laughs very loudly or cries or shouts. Sometimes he sings and dances like a madman, for he is indifferent to public opinion

एवंव्रतः स्वप्रियनामकीर्त्या. जातानुरागो द्रुतचित्त उच्चैः ।

हसत्यथो रोदिति रौति गायत्युन्मादवन्न्रुत्यति लोकबाह्यः । ।

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
