श्वासा लेवै नाम बिन, सो
जीवन धिक्कार ।
श्वास श्वास में नाम जप,
यही धारना धार ॥
Every
breath that passes without the Name is worthless, while every breath that
resonates with the chant of the Name is supremely significant.

மஹாரண்யம் ஸ்ரீ ஸ்ரீ முரளீதர ஸ்வாமிஜி
மனது ஒரு நாள் பக்தியாக இருக்கும். ஒரு நாள், உலக சுகங்களை நினைத்து ஏங்கும்.
ஒரு நாள் எல்லாவற்றையும் வெறுக்கும். இந்த மனது என்ற மஹாமாயையை நாமகீர்த்தனம் ஒன்றினால்தான்
சிறிது சிறிதாக வழிக்குக் கொண்டு வரமுடியும்.
HH Maharanyam Sri Sri

One day the mind is pious; one day it yearns for the pleasures of this world. On another day it despises everything. This supreme illusion called mind can be gradually brought to the right course only by the singing of the Divine Names of God.

Namdev Maharaj says, "Recognise him alone as a true saint, the one whose
mouth is given to the utterance of Govinda's name, not forgetting Him even for
a moment; all others are bound by illusion."

Which Mantra Japa will give results immediately?
HH Maharanyam Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
A beautiful question!
We can see the answer to this question through an incident in the divine life
of Mother Krishnabai.
A sadhak received
Narayana mantra upadesha from a Vaishnava sadhu who visited his house. He was
continuously doing japa of that mantra. After some time, according to the
advice of some others, he took diksha of the same mantra from a Vaishnava Guru.
He did japa of the mantra consistently and continuously.
Days turned into
months. Months became a couple of years. Even though he had been practicing
this japa continuously, he did not feel any progress. He started feeling a
little dejected. Then he heard about Mother Krishnabai, who was an ardent devotee
of Papa Ramdas in Kasargod Ashram. He believed that he could progress if he got
a powerful mantra from Mother Krishnabai. He approached Mataji and described
his sadhanas. He prayed for mantra upadesha from Mataji. Out of compassion,
Mataji also agreed to give him mantra dIksha.
With great interest to
experience progress in his sadhanas by receiving a powerful mantra from Mataji,
he got ready. When Mataji called him and gave mantra upadesha, his heart felt heavy
because of disappointment. Because the mantra that Mataji gave him was the same
Narayana mantra that he had received and had been chanting for a few years! Mataji
said, “Repeat the mantra again”. He repeated it.
Mataji made him repeat
the mantra another time. When the sadhaka repeated the mantra the ninth time,
his eyes were filled with tears. His voice was shaken. He had horripilation all
over his body. His heart felt blissful. He felt this spiritual experience like
never before. He prostrated to Mataji. The experience that never occurred to
him all these years by repetition of the same mantra, happened now when he repeated
after Mataji for the ninth time! Spiritual progress is not only in the mantra
that is being repeated. More than the mantra japa, what is important for
spiritual progress is from whom we are blessed with the mantra upadesha.

O, Krishna! My mind always revolves around various desires, wealth, high office and such other worldly matters. Quite rarely when it, by chance, thinks of you or utters your Name use that opportunity to hold it down at your Feet. But for this, there is no other way for me!
மஹாரண்யம் ஸ்ரீ ஸ்ரீ முரளீதர ஸ்வாமிஜி :
கண்ணா! என் மனம் எப்போதும் ஆசைகள், பணம், பதவி, பட்டம் என்று உலக விஷயமாகவே சுற்றிக்கொண்டு இருக்கின்றது. அது ஒரு முறை எப்போதாவது தற்செயலாக, உன்னை நினைக்கும்போதோ, உன் பெயரைச் சொல்லும்போதோ, இதையே சந்தர்ப்பமாகக் கொண்டு அக்கணமே மனதை இறுக்கப்பற்றி உன் சரணத்தில் நிறுத்திவிடு. இதுவன்றி வேறுகதியில்லை எனக்கு!
