Guest guest Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 I will never force you to take up a particular name or form of the Lord as your Ishtam (wish). The Lord has a million names and a million forms, and He wants that faith and attachment should be evoked in you by any one of them, as you recite the names or contemplate the forms. That is why they have a string of 1008 names for use to worship; the devotee might be drawn closer to the Lord while any one name is being repeated, however distracted or inattentive he might be during the rest of the list.He bows to your will, He carries your burden, provided you trust Him with it. - From Swami's 1960 Birthday Discourse.
