Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 OM NAMAH SIVAYA i got this email today. have you ever noticed that all Masters seem to have One teaching in common? Mantra, The Name will end the game. may the Divine Name of God be forever on our lips and in our minds. SIVANANDA DAILY READING FOR 19 MAY THE SAVING GRACE Japa is the best of all spiritual practices in this modern age. It is the easiest too. The divine name alone will give you all success and bestow on you the highest spiritual attainments. The seeker after truth reaches the highest goal by japa or recitation of the Lord's name (or mantra) alone. This is a sure medicine for the disease of birth and death. If you take to the recitation of the divine name, all inauspiciousness will certainly vanish. Smarana is remembrance of the Lord at all times. The mind does not think of any object of the world. It is engrossed in thinking of the glorious Lord alone. The mind meditates on the glories of the Lord and forgets the body. Even japa is only remembrance of the Lord. Ever remember the Lord. His divine name is the greatest treasure on earth. It has got indescribable power of bestowing blessings upon all who have faith. It is a good idea to recite the mantras at bedtime. In ordinary self-consciousness there is duality between the repetitioner and the name. It is discursive. It is within the fields of ordinary experience. It is confined within the categories of the mind, of limited conceptions. Ultimately the ordinary self- consciousness is elevated into a transcendental experience, into a state of superconsciousness. The repetitioner and the name become one. The eternally revealed truth reveals itself to him and he realises his oneness with the supreme. The sense of duality, the gulf of separateness between the finite and the infinite is removed. Spiritual life needs harmony in all parts of your being. Spiritual truth can only be realised when the whole being is perfectly at ease and in tune with the divine. Mantra (the name of God) has the power to release cosmic and supracosmic consciousness. It bestows illumination, freedom, supreme peace, eternal bliss and immortality. JAI MA Aum Amriteswarayai Namaha! Terms of Service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Yes, Babaji has said the repeating of the Om Namah Shivaya is more powerful than the atom bomb. IMHO, the message below is more important than worrying about being at a certain location at a certain time or even being in the presense of your Master physically... Eventually...we need to take the final step and surrender...to Her Love....so that we ARE her love at all times.... It is much harder being out in the world, emersed in the mundane tasks of everyday life....driving in traffic, taking care of the kids, buying groceries...being amidst the noise and pollution and homelessness in our cities...working in corporarte America....working for the Government or in the Medical Professions..... If we can do all of those things, while maintaing our Love and Joy of Amma in our hearts...than all of this other stuff....is just icing on the cake....it is just an extra little gift.... When we are in Her Love at all times...than it will truly not matter where we are or what we are doing. The message below....really gets to the heart of the matter.
