By Chanting the Divine Names, the sins get destroyed. But the tendency alone remains and then that too is destroyed.

Nama Article 2nd February 2015


Sri Sri Krishna Premi Swamigal


சரீரத்தில் புண் ஏற்பட்டால் மருந்துபோட்டு அற்றினாலும் ஆறிய வடு சிறிது காலம் இருக்கிறது. அதுபோல பாபாசாரங்கள் பகவன்நாமகீர்த்தனத்தால் ஒழிந்து பிறகு அதன் வாசனைமட்டும் இருந்து பிறகு அதுவும் அழிந்துவிடும்.


The wound is healed by applying medicine. But the scar remains for sometime. Likewise by Chanting the Divine Names, the sins get destroyed. But the tendency alone remains and then that too is destroyed.

Sri Ram is an ocean of love, sweet as nectar. Ours is to drink out of it, every second of our existence. Supreme Anandam is the one characteristic of this nectar-like love.

Nama Article 1st February 2015


Swami Papa Ramdas


Sri Ram is an ocean of love, sweet as nectar. Ours is to drink out of it, every second of our existence. We live, move and have our being in that ocean. He fills our body from top to toe; He pervades the whole universe. In fact all forms are made of Him, i.e., of that Infinite Love. Supreme Anandam is the one characteristic of this nectar-like love. He is all. He is all. He is simply glorious!


Bhajan and Kirtan are always going on in the Ashram, sometimes, all day and night. Ramdas dances and dances in ecstasy. His sweet Name is ever in the air. Joy, joy, eternal joy!


How indescribably great that Name is! Its power is simply marvellous! It gives us at once the bliss of Bhakti and Mukti. The Name is not different from Him. He is our all in all.

Her cow dung cakes were chanting the name of Panduranga very melodiously. The other devotees were taken aback at her devotion.

Nama Article 31st January 2015


Once a few devotees like Jnanadev, Nivrithinath, Sopan, Muktabai, Ramananda Swami and Kabir Das came to Namadev's house. At that time, Namadev was away. Janabai was deeply engrossed in fight with neighbouring lady over the cow dung cakes. Kabirdas questioned Jananai 'How can you claim those cow dung cakes to be your own?' Janabai said, 'You are truthful people. You should give a proper judgment. While I was preparing the cow dung cakes, I chanted the name of Panduranga. So you can hear his name from my cow dung cakes. How strange but how true! Her cow dung cakes were chanting the name of Panduranga very melodiously. The other devotees were taken aback at her devotion.
