Srimad Bhagavatham – Chapter VI - Pushti Skandha

 

This chapter deals with the unknown – but most essential – factor in one's spiritual life, known as the Grace (Anugraha) of the Lord. Paul Brunton calls it an X-factor as it is both unknown and unpredictable. This Skandha also prescribes "Nama Smaranam'', remembering or chanting any of the names of the Lord – whether from the bottom of one's heart with deep faith and devotion, or even unintentionally – as also prayers from the heart, as the sure means to attain the Grace of the Lord.

 

Please check these: Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

By the mere Will of God even the lowliest of the low can, in a matter of a second, receive the Grace and become a Jnăni.

 

Bhagavăn might (without any reason) just bestow liberation on anyone. This is very rare, though.

 

Lord should desire to take you unto Him

 

When one believes in the grace of the Lord alone and totally surrenders to Him, he is liberated in the very same birth.

 

While speaking on Bhakti marga alone Lord Says.........

 

Likewise, it would suffice if we do not block the Grace that is being sent out.

 

God's grace always flows in abundance. It is upto you to be ready to receive it.

 

That love, can sprout only by his grace. His grace descends when we chant the Mahamantra.
