Sri Sri Krishna Premi Swamigal

ஒரு ஊரையும், அவ்வூருக்கு செல்லும் வழியையும் தெரிந்து கொண்டால் போதுமானது. மற்றபடி ஊரைப்பற்றிய விஷயங்களை நேரே பார்த்து நிச்சயித்து கொள்ளலாம். அதுபோல பகவான் ஒருவன் இருப்பதாகவும், அவனையடைய அவனுடைய நாமமே கதி என்றும் தெரிந்துகொண்டால் போதுமானது. மற்ற விஷயங்களை நேரே பார்த்துத் தெரிந்து கொள்ளலாம்.

It is enough that you know the destination and the right path to reach it. The other details about the place can be verified in person. Likewise, it is enough, if we know that someone called God exists and the only way to reach him is Chanting His Name. The rest can be known and experienced in person.

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

The absolute pure consciousness is God. He is within you and He is all-pervading; omnipresent. There are no two things in this world. He alone exists and no body else.

"My Father alone exists, nothing else; nobody else"

Thus gradually developing the conviction that God alone exists and the ego does not count

One has to believe that the Lord exists. But it should not stop there. One should have total faith in Him and invoke His divine grace by chanting the Maha Mantra.

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

Yogi then said to him, "Advaita and Visishtadwaita are for my Masters like Ramana Maharishi and Papa Ramadas. For you and for this beggar Rama Năm is enough. Get out!"

We believe in Nama

I want to know about your Bhakti Advaita Siddhanta

For this communion you need no philosophy, no rigorous discipline, no learning, no worldly wealth and position

Opinion of Krishna on essence of Gita

In Srimad Bhagavatham it is fully stressed that only Namakirtan is enough.
