Guest guest Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Dear Members, Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji Namakirtan is Mediation - 2 Vedanta granta speaks on the performance of such japa. It says in Tamil, ‘Vittukarudalinal aru nei viizhchi pola Vittida dunnale undee para Visedamam munnave undeepara’ Vazhutthalil vakkuccha vaikkut jabatthil Vizhuppama manada mundii para Villambund dhyanami undee para’ What does it mean? While pouring out a liquid, that is full of viscosity, it runs down in a continuous flow without a break - ‘aru nei viizhchi pola’ - It is known as ‘thaila dharai’ - the flow of oil. Likewise the flow of a river - let us take the movement of a river like the Cauvery or the Ganga . Just as the water flows continually without a break so, too, the constant thought of a God whom we love very much is also dhyana. Or doing japa of a Mantra of the God is also dhyana - ‘Rama! Rama! Rama!’ - saying this within the mind constantly is also dhyana. Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan : Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare --------------------- If you have any questions or doubts concerning Spirituality, Mental peace or problems in life or about dharma, please write to us by clicking here: http://www.namadwaar.org/answers/askquestion.php His Holiness Sri Sri Swamiji personally answers these questions for you and suggests prayers. --------------------- ______________________________\ ____ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile.
