They might hesitate and ask, ‘Can I, who have committed innumerable grievous sins, utter the pure Name of the Lord?’ Such people need not hesitate or feel shy on this ground; they CAN sing the Divine Name of the Lord boldly and cheerfully!”

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

There is no doubt that those who have been leading a wayward life are not qualified for practicing the path of Karma, Yoga or Jnaana. However, they certainly qualify for Bhagavan Naamasankirtan! When told that they have a way out; that they can, indeed, cross the ocean of misery through Bhagavan Naamasankirtan; that Naamasankirtan will purify them.

 

They might hesitate and ask, 'Can I, who have committed innumerable grievous sins, utter the pure Name of the Lord?' Such people need not hesitate or feel shy on this ground; they CAN sing the Divine Name of the Lord boldly and cheerfully!"

Incapability is the qualification! You should realize that you are incapable (of treading any spiritual path). AND, THAT IS THE ONLY QUALIFICATION REQUIRED. Chant this Divine Maha Mantra that has been advocated by our Shãstras. It is the easiest way

 

Don't think of making your body and mind pure before chanting the Divine Name. That is the very reason for chanting the divine name! Nama Kirtan has no rules!

Having compassion of the Lord as the foundation, the one which has no rules, the one which can eradicate the force of Kali, Namakirtanam is the only resort. I think again and again about this with in Myself

 

We would feel that there is none as rich as we are because we have got such a Guru Ratnam

 

The more you think about the world, the more your heart is filled with dirt and filth. The more you bring Sri Krishna into your heart, the more it is filled with bliss and peace.

 

Name is constantly pure, and the impurest, on taking the Name, becomes completely pure

 

Divine Name redeems all - even the worst sinner

 

"From this very moment I am going to change my way of life," and began to do japa of Rama Nama incessantly

 

Ordinary person to Yogi

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

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