Nama Article 25th October 2008
 
Deepavali wishes to all!
 

Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

On the auspicious day of Deepavali (Festival of lights), when taking oil bath in warm water, during the early morning hours is considered as equivalent of dipping in the sacred waters of River Ganga.

 

Just by remembering the Divine Name daily at any time what we will get?

 

Our scriptures say:

 

He has been to the Sacred River Ganga, to Gaya and Kashi, as well as to Pushakaram, on whose tongue reside these two alphabets: HaRi

स गँगा स गया सेतुः स काशी स च पुष्करम् ।
जिह्वाग्रे वर्तते यस्या हरिरित्यक्षर द्वयम् ॥

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

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