Pankaja_Dasa Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Jaiva-Dharma Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura Srila Narayana Maharaja Chapter Four -Vaisnava-Dharma Is Nitya-Dharma Lahiri: Please be merciful and grant me such spiritual realization (cid-anubhava) Babaji: When you abandon all material doubts and mundane logic, and constantly apply yourself to sri-nama, spiritual realization will quickly arise within you of its own accord. The more you resort to mundane logic, the more you will subjugate your mind to material bondage. The more you strive to initiate the flow of nama-rasa, the more your material shackles will become loosened. The spiritual dimension will then manifest in your heart. Lahiri: Please be merciful and explain what the spiritual experience is. Babaji: The mind is brought to a standstill when it tries to understand that truth through words. The truth can be realized only through culture and spiritual bliss (cid-ananda). Give up all argumentation and simply chant sri-nama for several days. Then the power of nama will automatically dispel all of your doubts and you will not have to inquire further from anyone in this regard.
