Namaste Guruji.I’m Rajalakshmi from Andhra pradesh.My question is -Is Yoga is really necessary when we do nama japam in Bhakti margam??I’m vegetarian…can i eat Onions??

Posted by Rajalakshmi on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Rajalekshmi, Practising Yoga is beneficial for both body and mind as the breath unites body and mind when you do the Asanas. Yoga is not mere physical exercises. Onions are not recommended for the seekers.

Swamiji:

Dear Girija, I am very happy to hear this; Please inspire others too. You can refer to Gita translation by Prof. G. Balakrishnan Nair.

Hari om! Best wishes to all of you on this bright day of Gandhi Jayanthi. Lets remember to spread the message of happiness. As Mahathma Ghandhi eloquently said…”Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony”

Swamiji:

Thank you, Sunila! HariOm!

Pranam Swamiji What is the proper allocation of time for reading and sadana. When I involved in reading of spiritual materials utilising lot of time but it affects the sadana.

Posted by K.Aravindan on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Aravindan, The ideal time is early morning, preferably between 4 am to 6 am. Be careful not to get stuck up with too much of “spiritual information”; focus on knowledge and wisdom!

Dear Ramachandran, Please contact harisriom@gmail.com with your details.

sorry for troubling u again and again, swamiji,can i chant all sahasranamams ,i mean laliha ,shiva and vishnu sahasranamams,but thinking of krishana while chanting them.

Posted by Viji on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Viji, It is our small mind and limited intellect that confines Krishna in our boundaries. To get single focused Bhakthi, you need to see the Lord in a single form (let it be Krishna) before your mind gets dissolved in the formless Chaithanyam beyond all forms and names!

RESPECTED SWAMIJI icannot concetrate in my japam because i m so tired after my household chores,i m sitting and chanting sahasranama but due to tiredness i m completing it some how.later i feels so guilty,swamiji pl help me

Posted by Viji on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Viji, It is the quality, not the quantity of time that is required! Whatever time you have for spiritual practices, spend it with an intense devotion and sincerity. When you give the prime time and importance to the Divine, you will realize that the Divine will give more opportunities

Hari Om !!! Pranams to Swamiji Kindly enlighten on the practices to be adopted to surrender “Budhi” in “Chaithanyam” Prayers and Namaskarams Rajan Viswanathan

Posted by Rajan Viswanathan on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Rajan, Surrender happens only when ego disappears. For that, you need to realize that you are NOTHING in this vast and majestic creation and you have no existence without the presence of the Chaithanyam (the Lord) that resides in you! Regular Meditation will help you to attain this stage.

Hari OM Pranam Swamiji, I had a problem and I don’t know how to get rid of this. Even if am trying a lot still some time I will burst out even using bad languages against Islam followers. I had many Muslim colleagues. I am always very good with them. But some time thinking about terrorists – all Muslims are not terrorists, but terrorists are Muslims – I got mad. Then I start thinking about the world, peace between humanity etc… used to create anger and I will burst out. How can I control myself? I want to do meditation but I don’t have much concentration. I am a stunch believer of Lord Krishna. He is all to me. Please advise how I can help myself. I know – Bhagavan buda bhaveshya na jane hitamathmana tho me va sanjindya vibo hitam mey dadumarhathi-. I want to control myself and lead a peaceful life. Please help me.

Posted by Jayanarayanan on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Jayanarayanan, We need to realize that terrorists are not born, but trained through education! It is the negative training and education conducted by greedy,selfishly motivated people that drags innocent youths into such terrible acts. The best thing we can do is spreading knowledge and wisdom in a very large

How one can lead a VANAPRASTHASHRAMAM life while living in a combined family

Posted by P.s.hariprasad on October 4, 2009

Swamiji:

Dear Hariprasad, When you live with your family, imagine yourself as a lotus! A lotus lives in the water, yet unstained by water! It is always surrendered to the SUN! Similarly, do service to your family and all others, keeping in mind that only the Lord had always been with
