Greatness of Nama Sankirtan By Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

 

" Starting with Narayana Bhattatri in Kerala, Bhadrachala Ramdasa in Andhra,

Purandaradasa in Karnataka, Mira Bhai in Uttar Pradesh, the innumerable

Pandarpur devotees in Maharashtra, Guru Govind Singh, Sri Ramakrishna

Paramahamsa, Swami Vivekananda, Saradha Mani and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in Bengal,

Ramana Maharshi, Seshadri Swamigal and Yogiramsuratkumar in Tiruvannamalai,

Swami Jnanananda in Tapovanam,Alwars, Nayanmars, Kumaraguruparar, Nakeerar,

Arunagirinathar, Abhirami Bhattar and Avvayaar in Tamil Nadu,

 

-- this country has given birth and still giving birth to Jnanis and Jivan

Muktas throughout. And all of them have preached Nama Kirtan.

 

Ramakrishna Says, when a pumpkin is cut at home, a seed or two spill out into

the garden without our knowledge. One fine day, we see a nice pumpkin creeper in

the garden. In the same way, Nama Kirtan, whether done knowingly or unknowingly,

certainly has to give its effect. All these Mahans stressed just this fact.

 

Today we see that Swami Vivekananda has glorified the Hindu religion all over

the world. No doubt Sri Ramakrishna's penance had been the reason for this. But

what Mantra did Sri Ramakrishna initiate Swami Vivekananda into? He initiated

Vivekananda into the holy 'Rama' Nama. It is the power of that Divine Name that

made him establish this Universal Religion of Brotherhood called Hinduism all

over the world.

 

Swami Vivekananda traveled the length and breadth of India alone and reached

Kanyakumari. He swam to what is today known as the 'Vivekananda Rock' and

performed intense penance sans food water and sleep for three days, towards

Mother India.

 

The Mother appeared on the first day, hands and legs shackled. She signified

that the country was enslaved. The second day, the Mother appeared unshackled

and free. Then Vivekananda wrote in his diary, 'The mother is unshackled. India

will attain Independence .'

 

He then asked Mother India, will India savour the 'Rama Rajya' as has been the

cherished dream of so many leaders and saints.

 

Rama Rajya is possible only through spirituality.

 

Only through Rama Nama Kirtan can it be attained. Rama Rajya is not very far. It

is not far off. What does 'far' mean? It is right in our hands! If we cherish

Rama Rajya, the only thing we need to do is continue to chant the Nama and make

every one chant! If that happens, then the Rama Rajya is possible very soon.

 

It is certain that every corner of India and the world shall echo this Rama

Nama! "
