NAAM-SMARAN AND INNER IMPLEMENTS (MIND, INTELLICT ETC.) --- HARMONY AND CONNECTION.

Experience this my brother. Act with equanimity so that there is equilibrium between mind, chitta, intellect, prana and ego. I have heard from some holy men that you can attain heaven by reciting or writing God's name for 70 million times. This is absolutely false. Naam-smaran will never be effective if you let your mind, intellect, chitta, prana and ego behave as before. So the major way is to develop a connection of the Naam-smaran with the mind and the intellect. There is no way to advance without reducing attachments and jealousy.

You will not achieve salvation even if you recite God's name for millions of years. It is very difficult for us to cultivate the state where we are without attachments and jealousy for most of the time while still being in our ordinary lives. Is there any way out of it? Yes, there is. We work with our mind and intellect to reduce attachments and jealousy while getting automatic help from naam-smaran and prayers. To do this we must interact with unity, harmony and goodness with our aquaintances. You must keep in mind that this may lead to injustice to you and you must learn to bear that. You should know for sure that the interactions done with the bhavna ( always remembering that the purpose is to reduce the attachments and jealousy) will keep you in the condition of happiness.

My two cents -- Please refer the blog " naam-smaran and analysis of the mind" written on June 30, 2011. This is another way of looking from a different angle.
