Sant Samartha Ramdas

 

कलीं साधनें याविणें सर्व निंदीं |

हरे राम हा मंत्र जो त्यासि वंदीं ||

हरे राम हे माळिका साध का रे |

हरे राम हा मंत्र सोपा जपा रे ||

 

Penance of all sorts can you give up in this age of Kali,

If only you can surrender yourself with this chant of Hare Rama,

Acquire this rosary of chanting Hare Rama, so simple

Keep chanting Hare Rama, I plead with you

 

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

 

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.

 

For all questions he had only one reply, "One should perform Krishna Namakirtan"

 

When its recitation commences with the Divine Name Hari and concludes with the same, it is a clear and significant indication that the essence of all Vedas is about chanting the Divine Name of Hari.

 

The essence of the endless Vedas is this : Seek the shelter of God and repeat His name with all thy heart.

 

Essence of the Vedas and all the holy scriptures is "Repeat the name of Narayana." Without the remembrance of Hari, all other practices, such as rituals and austerities, are only futile exertions.

 

Uttering the Name of the God is real essense

 

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

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