மஹாரண்யம் ஸ்ரீ ஸ்ரீ முரளீதர ஸ்வாமிஜி :

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

यन्नामकीर्तनं भक्त्या विलापनमनुत्तमम्।
मैत्रेयाशेषपापानां धातूनामिव पावकः।।
O Maitreya! The repetition of His Name with devotion is the best purifier of all sins, as the fire purifies the metals.

कल्याणानां निधानं कलिमलमथनं पावनं पावनानां
पाथेयं यन्मुमुक्षोः सपदि परपदप्राप्तये प्रोच्यमानम् ।
विश्रामस्थानमेकं कविवरवचसां जीवनं सज्जनानां
बीजं धर्मद्रुमस्य प्रभवतु भवतां भूतये कृष्णनाम ॥
May Krishna's holy name, which is a reservoir of all transcendental happiness, the destruction of Kali-yuga's sins, the most purifying of all purifying things, the saintly person's food as he traverses the path to the spiritual world, the pleasure-garden where the voices of the greatest saints, philosophers, and poets play, the life of the righteous, and the seed of the tree of religion, bring transcendental auspiciousness to you all.

अतिपातकयुक्तोऽपि ध्यायन्निमिषमच्युतम्।
भूयस्तपस्वी भवति पङ्क्तिपावनपावनः।।
Even if one is guilty of heinous crimes, if he but concentrates his mind upon Achyuta, he becomes a holy man, purifying even the assembly of pure men.

மஹாரண்யம் ஸ்ரீ ஸ்ரீ முரளீதர ஸ்வாமிஜி :
நாமகீர்த்தனமே போதும் என்றாலும் கூட, பாகவதம் என்ற க்ரந்தத்தை வேதவ்யாஸர் அருளி செய்தார். பாகவதம் முழுவதும் நாம கீர்த்தனம் மட்டுமே போதும் என்பதைத்தான் வலியுறுத்துகின்றது. மனிதனுக்கு அறிவு இருப்பதால் அதற்கு ஏதாவது தீனி கொடுக்க வேண்டும் என்ற அவஸ்தை இருக்கும். அதற்கு ஒரு க்ரந்தம் இருக்கட்டும் என்பதற்காகத்தான் நாம ஸித்தாந்தம் போல் ஸ்ரீமத் பாகவதம் செய்தருளினார்.
Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
Even if Namakirtan itself is sufficient, Vedavyasa has blessed us with a holy text Bhagavatham. Entire Bhagavatham fully stresses that Namakirtan alone is sufficient. Since a person has intellect, that has to be fed in someway. So he has blessed this holy text as a Nama siddantha.

Disciple: "Mother, why is it that the mind does not become steady? When I try to think of God, I find the mind drawn towards other objects."
Mother: "It is wrong if the mind is drawn towards secular objects. By 'secular objects' is meant money, family, etc. But it is natural to think of the work in which one is engaged. If meditation is not possible, do Japa. Realization will come through Japa. If the meditative mood comes, well and good, but by no means do it by force."

ब्रह्माण्डानां कोटिसङ्ख्याधिकानाम्
ऐश्वर्यं यच्चेतना वा यदंशः ।
आविर्भूतं तन्महः कृष्णनाम
तन्मे साध्यं साधनं जीवनं च ॥
If the opulence or knowledge of many millions of universes were clustered together, they would hardly equal a small fragment of the glory of Krishna's holy name. Krishna's holy name is my life. It is the goal of my life. It is the means I will employ to attain the goal of my life.
