The Energizing tonic -- called Hare Rama Mahamantra Nama

Bhagavan Nama, as many think is not just said to gain some favor from the GOD, instead we chant the Bhagavan nama for the sake of the peace that we get just by chanting the nama. Yes, it is a fact that by chanting the Bhagavan nama we get the blessings of the Lord, still, a true seeker and lover of GOD finds a kind of indescribable pleasure and peace just by chanting the
"Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare !
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare !!".
This is a real gift that a true devotee gets from the GOD, the tast in just chanting his name.

And we are blessed to have been part of the Akanda Nama Kirtan that is being performed in Paranoor (a place near Thirukoviloor - around 30 KM from Villupuram -- that is 160 KM south towards Chennai in India). This holy place is sanctified by the presence of Sri Sri Krishna Premi Anna and the temple of Baktha Koolaahalan (Radha Krishna Ugala moorthy). This Nama yagyam has been performed from the 17th May onwards and is going to go on till 15th of this month. Lot of devotees are enthusiastically participating in these day and night continuous program that is running 24/7. One will have such a peace that he will completely get lost and fell immersed in the divine bliss for the whole period of his stay. Daily, between 4 PM to 6 PM Sri Sri Krishna Premi Anna would narrate the Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s life history in his own captivating style and make us all spell bound, and all those who have heard his pravachanam (Story telling) would definitely vouch it irrespective of whether he is a lay man or learned man. So, the last week of this wonderful experience is coming alone left now. Hope my wise to be part of this last week is fulfilled.
