Nama Article 11th April  2015


Srimad Bhagavatham 9:4:17 & 18


वासुदेवे भगवति तद्-भक्तेषु च साधुषु

प्राप्तो भावं परं विश्वं येनेदं लोष्ट्रवत् स्मृतम्

स वै मनः कृष्ण-पदारविन्दयोर्

वचांसि वैकुण्ठ-गुणानुवर्णने

करौ हरेर् मन्दिर-मार्जनादिषु

श्रुतिं चकाराच्युत-सत्-कथोदये


Bhagavatha Ambareesha attained supreme devotion to Lord Vasudeva and His pious devotees by virtue of which all this untold wealth was regarded by him as clod of earth.


He fixed his mind exclusively on the lotus feet of Lord Vishnu and employed his words by Chanting His Divine Names and recounting the virtues of Lord Vaikunta, his hands in sweeping the temple of Sri Hari and so on, his auditory sense in hearing the excellent stories of the immortal Lord.


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

Remembering the Hare Rama Maha mantra always is Punya (Virtue), Forgetting Hare Rama Maha Mantra is sin

All rituals are corollaries of the these two basic rules – "Always remember Sri Krishna. Never forget him

God's name on one's lips is itself salvation, disregard (of the name) know to be perdition.

Remembering Rama is the greatest gain and forgetting Him is the biggest loss"

Sri Hari, the bestower of salvation, gives beauty, health, wordly possessions and appropriate enjoyments to those who constantly medidiate on Him.

Those who Chant the Divine Names of Hari, Udupi Krishna blesses them with adequate food.

If you want God alone, why do you accept the existence of anything else ?

If someone forgets the Beloved Lord, even for an instant, what sort of devotion is that?

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

If you become that anxious on forgetting to chant the Divine Name even for a second, then you are blessed.

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

We should Chant and remember the Divine Name every breath we intake and we need not try to do anything else.

kalakshebo na kartavyah, kshenamaayuh kshane kshane, yamasya karuna naasti, kartavyam hari kirtanam.

Every moment of your life should be taken as His gift.  Be rest assured that every incident that happens is by His grace and happens for your well-being.


Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
