Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 
One who Chants the Divine Name should be like a 'vivasayi' (farmer). Farmer ploughs the land and sows the seeds (effort); prays for Lord's grace for rain, as no amount of his effort would fetch him that and waits for the ripe time for a good harvest. One who chants should also possess three things viz. effort, grace and 'kaala' (time).

 

The Lord Himself leads, as would a mother her child, one who Chants the Divine Name with deep bhakti for the Lord. The mother holds the child by the hand and leads and protects the child from falling in any pit that may be found on the way. Likewise, God takes hold of his devotee and removes all the hurdles in his/her way.

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
