Guest guest Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Nama article 14th December 2007 Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji You can even deceive God but never your conscience. Can you dupe your conscience? Dhyãna, ‘vichãra’ (self-enquiry) are only for people who have done these practices earlier, for ‘yoga brashtãs’ and not for all. You may sit with your eyes closed as in dhyãna. That’s all. Today, it is difficult for all to perform karma or dhyãna. I will explain this to you logically. Sankara’s period was some 2500 years back. At that time every home performed ‘yãga’, ‘yagna’ and puja to the Lord. There was no falsehood then - No bribe, no cheating, no robbing, no thieving, etc. Sankara who lived in such a period has said that dhyãna, yoga, ‘vichãra’ (enquiry) are not easy practices and has recommended chanting the Name of the Lord. Then what to speak of today when there is so much falsehood, bribe, thieving, etc.? ‘Bhajanam’ (Chanting the Divine Name) is very easy and one can easily attain God through this.
