They might hesitate and ask, ‘Can I, who have committed innumerable grievous sins, utter the pure Name of the Lord?’ Such people need not hesitate or feel shy on this ground; they CAN sing the Divine Name of the Lord boldly and cheerfully!”

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

There is no doubt that those who have been leading a wayward life are not qualified for practicing the path of Karma, Yoga or Jnaana. However, they certainly qualify for Bhagavan Naamasankirtan! When told that they have a way out; that they can, indeed, cross the ocean of misery through Bhagavan Naamasankirtan; that Naamasankirtan will purify them.

 

They might hesitate and ask, 'Can I, who have committed innumerable grievous sins, utter the pure Name of the Lord?' Such people need not hesitate or feel shy on this ground; they CAN sing the Divine Name of the Lord boldly and cheerfully!"

Incapability is the qualification! You should realize that you are incapable (of treading any spiritual path). AND, THAT IS THE ONLY QUALIFICATION REQUIRED. Chant this Divine Maha Mantra that has been advocated by our Shãstras. It is the easiest way

 

Don't think of making your body and mind pure before chanting the Divine Name. That is the very reason for chanting the divine name! Nama Kirtan has no rules!


Having compassion of the Lord as the foundation, the one which has no rules, the one which can eradicate the force of Kali, Namakirtanam is the only resort. I think again and again about this with in Myself

 

We would feel that there is none as rich as we are because we have got such a Guru Ratnam

 

The more you think about the world, the more your heart is filled with dirt and filth. The more you bring Sri Krishna into your heart, the more it is filled with bliss and peace.

 

Name is constantly pure, and the impurest, on taking the Name, becomes completely pure

 

Divine Name redeems all - even the worst sinner

 

"From this very moment I am going to change my way of life," and began to do japa of Rama Nama incessantly

There will be peace in that home. All auspiciousness come about there. Lord is highly pleased in such a place.

Mahaprabhu made lions and tigers sing and dance to the tune of Nama Kirtan. What does this go to show? If you chant the Maha Mantra constantly, the whole world will be at your feet

 

Vibrations resulting from devotional singing lead to the contact of the Cosmic Vibration or the Word.

Papa often said, and he has also written, how sweet the Name was, how it was both the means and end in itself.

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

 

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

By chanting the Name of Bhagavăn one attains Atma Jnana, Jivan Mukti state

 

The greatness of Hari Nama Sankirtanam lies in the fact that this is one mărga (path) that apart from taking one to eternal bliss gives immeasurable joy even while practising it.

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

Nama Article 2nd December 2011

 

Sant Tukaram

 

पुण्य पऱउपकार पाप ते परपीडा । आणीक नाही जोडा दुजा यासी ॥१॥

सत्य तोचि धर्म असत्य ते कर्म । आणीक हे वर्म नाही दुजे ॥धृ॥

गति तेचि मुखी नामाचे स्मरण । अधोगति जाण विन्मुख ते ॥२॥

संतांचा संग तोचि स्वर्गवास । नर्क तो उदास अनर्गळा ॥३॥

 

Merit consists in doing good to others, sin in doing harm to others. There is no other pair comparable to this. Truth is the only religion (or freedom); untruth is bondage, there is no secret like this.

 

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

 

Companionship of the good is the only heaven,studious indifference is hell. Tuka says: It is thus clear what is good and what is injurious, let people choose what they will.
