Sri Sri Krishna Premi Swamigal

 

சூரியன் பகல்முழுவதும் வானத்தில் இருந்து வருகிறது. நடுப்பகலில் திடீரென மறைந்து இருளாகிவிட்டால் எவ்வளவு நடுக்கமும், கலக்கமும் ஏற்படும் ? அதுபோல் உனக்கு பகவன்நாம ஜபத்தை கண்ணிமைப்பொழுது மறந்தாலும்கூடக் கலக்கம் ஏற்படுமாகில் நீ தன்யன். அவ்வளவு ஊக்கம் வரும்வரை ஓயாமல் ஜபம் செய்து வா.

 

The sun generally remains in the sky through out the day. All of a sudden if it disappears in the middle of the day how much fear and confusion it shall cause ? If you become that anxious on forgetting to chant the Divine Name even for a second, then you are blessed. Keep repeating the Lord's Name till you attain such intense eagerness in His Name.

The  one,  whom all the riches of the three worlds cannot distract from the remembrance of the Lord's  lotus feet even for half a second, is the foremost of  all the vaishanavas.

 

Though he has performed such regnant (mighty) tasks, he hasn't diverged himself from uttering the Rama Nama even for a split of a second.

 

As your heart beats as you sleep, dream or being awake let your tongue always Chant the Divine Names of Hari.

 

One should constantly repeat the names of God irrespective of any activity that he might be involved in.
