Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
The Divine Name Hari is the essence of all Vedas. In fact, all Veda parayanam begins with this name of the Lord - "Hari: Om"-and ends with it too. Anyone who recites the Vedas, irrespective of his sector denomination, invariably commences the exercise with the aforesaid prelude and concludes also with the same.
Why should this be so?
Scholars say that matters mentioned in the beginning and the end ("upakramam and upasamharam") of any work, are a fair indication of the contents of the same.
When its recitation commences with the Divine Name Hari and concludes with the same, it is a clear and significant indication that the essence of all Vedas is about chanting the Divine Name of Hari.
Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
