Guru and Namakirtan: With a human mind, it is impossible to know what would happen in future. But one thing, you can be certain: Lord Rama is always right.

Nama Article 27th June 2012

I am writing 'Ram Nam' and it has solved many problems of mine and fulfilled many desires. But one crucial desire of mine alone is not getting fulfilled. Why is this happening?

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

That may be because Lord Rama feels that if this particular desire of yours gets fulfilled, it may create problems in the future. With a human mind, it is impossible to know what would happen in future. But one thing, you can be certain: Lord Rama is always right.

Please check these: Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

One thing can be said for certain. God is perfect. An imperfection cannot come from the perfect.

You should not only accept from the bottom of your heart the situation that the Lord keeps you in but also be grateful to Him for that because it is verily the Lord's blessing!

Even though I believe in God, I struggle a lot. Does my fate play such an important role in my life?

God is very compassionate because everything in our life is predetermined. No effort need be taken by us in that direction. All we have to do is to turn and fix our mind on Him!

Words of wisdom by a great Gnani and a true bhaktha

Chanting the Divine Name can change the fate

If there is faith, then there is no fate

In fact, developing an interest in the Divine Name is but a manifestation of God's grace

By constantly chanting the Maha Mantra, one can pray to the Lord to give the sense of discrimination

Let His Name be ever with you; Imperceptibly, relentlessly time is creeping away. Divine Name can change one's fate.

If there is faith, then there is no fate.
