O sinless Lord, man does not take refuge in Your lotus- feet and Chant your Divine Names, his mind being set on the pleasures of sense

Nama Article 23rd Feb 2017


Srimad Bhagavatham 10:51:47


लब्ध्वा जनो दुर्लभम् अत्र मानुषं

कथञ्चिद् अव्यङ्गम् अयत्नतोऽनघ

अपादारविन्दं न भजत्य् असन्-मतिर्

गृहान्ध-कूपे पतितो यथा पशुः


Having somehow (by grace of God) secured without (any) effort birth-which is (so) difficult to attain-in this land (of Bharatavarsa) as a human being sound of body and mind (and therefore fit for devotions), O sinless Lord, man does not take refuge in Your lotus- feet and Chant your Divine Names, his mind being set on the pleasures of sense (which are unreal), and remains sunk in household life even like a cow which is fond of grass has fallen into a Desolate well for that grass (and is unable to get out of it).


Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

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