Meaning - Srimad Bhagavatham (1.2.15)

 

Who will not have liking for the stories of the Lord, having whose constant meditation (Chanting the Divine Name) as a knife the wise men cut as under the knot of ego-sense which binds one to action?

One who Chants the Divine Name should be like a farmer

Wish you all a very happy Pongal / Makara Sankaranti

 
Nama Article 15th January 2008
 

Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 
One who Chants the Divine Name should be like a 'vivasayi' (farmer). Farmer ploughs the land and sows the seeds (effort); prays for Lord's grace for rain, as no amount of his effort would fetch him that and waits for the ripe time for a good harvest. One who chants should also possess three things viz. effort, grace and 'kaala' (time).

 

The Lord Himself leads, as would a mother her child, one who Chants the Divine Name with deep bhakti for the Lord. The mother holds the child by the hand and leads and protects the child from falling in any pit that may be found on the way. Likewise, God takes hold of his devotee and removes all the hurdles in his/her way.

It is only Nama Sankirtan that will be highly potent in this Kali. Nama can accomplish everything.

Nama Article 12th January 2008
 

Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

Which is most powerful in Kali? 'Kalau Bhaktih!' - Only Nama Sankirtan. It is only Nama Sankirtan that will be highly potent in this Kali. Nama can accomplish everything. But this should be performed without an iota of distrust. One should not question, "I have been chanting Nama. But there has been no experience ('anubhav'). I am facing difficult situations."

 

 A man approaches a doctor for the treatment of a disease. The doctor prescribes a medicine to be taken for ten days or a month or a year or for lifetime, as the case may be. It depends on the kind of disease the man is suffering from. Similarly, we should keep on incessantly chanting the Nama. The Nama bears fruit at the appropriate time depending on our sins, karma vasanas. We should, therefore, catch hold of the Nãma strongly. There is no method easier than this in Kali Yuga. Even in the nine types of bhakti it is only Nama Sankirtan that is the easiest.

 

It is only to show this path of Nama Sankirtan that Piratti (consort of Lord Vishnu) had taken avatar on this earth. She is none other than Neela Devi. She takes the avatar as Nachiar.

Let me take millions of births. It does not matter. But let me be attached to the lotus-feet of Lord Hari

Nama Article 11th January 2008
 

Swami Sivananda

 

Do not bother about taking care of your body with much effort. God will save it if He needs it for further service. Surrender it at His feet and rest in peace. He will take care of it. A real devotee says: "Let me take millions of births. It does not matter. But let me be attached to the lotus-feet of Lord Hari. Let me have spontaneous devotion to the Lord. Let me be endowed with purity, spiritual strength, spirit of selfless service and divine virtues."
