Following a retreat, Sri Swami Ramdas realized that the manifestation of Ram, or Beloved God, is everywhere, within and without. POWER OF THE NAME “The only precious thing in this world, by the possession of which we could attain an exalted state of pure peace and joy, is the Name of the Lord. Its melodious sound, coupled with the pure consciousness of the one Reality which it signifies, frees the mind from all its passions, permitting the outflow of the eternal joy inherent in the human soul. The Divine Name is a powerful boat that takes man across the whirlpools of life to the haven of his eternal and spiritual nature. His Name transforms man from the human to the Divine. The Divine Name is the one sovereign panacea for all the physical, mental and intellectual ills that have created the sense of diversity and misery in the world. The sweet note that rings out of the Name lulls and grants repose to the troubled spirit of man.” “God is a supreme Power who always works with a heart filled with infinite love and compassion. All activities in the world proceed from such a heart. But man in his ignorance misconstrues the workings of the Divine will and, instead of submitting to it, revolts and strives against it, and thus becomes miserable. Submission to God's will and a cheerful attitude towards all circumstances of life, and to be engaged in a blissful and selfless activity, can be possible only when man is in intimate communion and oneness with Him who is love and goodness.” WONDROUS NAME “There is no word in the human tongue which wields such a marvelous power, that mysteriously works for absolute good, as the Name which stands for God, The Name of the Lord is the very expression of God as a mystic sound. To attune the mind to the sweet melody of the Name is to harmonize your life with the Life eternal. The music of the Name brings about the union of the individual soul with the universal Soul. When the soul loses itself in the thrills generated by the Name, it attains a state of ineffable ecstasy in which all forms and lives are seen as the manifestation of the one supreme essence of Truth. The Name expands the narrow vision of the individual into a vision of infinite value and grandeur.”
