What will Lord's Name do?

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

 

In Rãmayana we read that a 'Brahmãstra' was shot.

There are ordinary arrows shot out and there are

arrows on which a mantra has been invoked

('prayoga')., and then the weapon was used.

 

What is the difference between an ordinary weapon and

the one on which a Mantra has been used?

 

The ordinary arrow hits the victim only if he

continued to stand still at the same place where the

arrow was aimed at. Otherwise it would go up to the

aimed spot and just fall down. Whereas the mantra

invoked arrow will move & chase whichever direction

the victim may run and will finally hits him.

Similarly, Nãma – Lord's Name - is like the arrow that

bears the Mantra.

 

The day the Guru decides to initiate you into a Lord's

Name ('Mantropadesa') it confirms that Lord has

decided to take you Unto Himself. It is only because

the Lord has decided to take you Unto Himself that you

have received Guru Upadesa (initiation). What does

this Lord's Name that is got through Guru Upadesa, do?

 

It starts chasing him! It chases him wherever he goes

and does not rest until it takes him to the Lotus Feet

of Lord.

 

Being Krishna Janmashtami week, please chant the Maha

Mantram as many times possible to invoke the Lord’s

arrow of Grace to fall on us.

 

Regards
