About this Blog

This Blog is a collection of excerpts from talks given by Sri Swami Vishwananda. Please note that this Blog does not focus on dates, background and the exact original way of how Swamiji delivered the speech. We edit the talks slightly, presenting them in a kind of “poetic” format. This means we choose certain paragraphs from a talk which reflect a particular theme.
Read them as pieces of Divine Wisdom, meditate upon the words and just feel how Swamiji is addressing you with His words.

Sing God's name and forget everything!

After one of his Speeches Sri Swami Vishwananda talked with us about the continuos chanting of God's name.

Sri Swami Vishwananda: Jai Gurudev!
So, for today it's finished.
I am sure you are all hungry (laughing).
Not really, eh?
Good!
That's what I wanted to hear, that you're not hungry!
Because, when you sing the name of God, you should forget about everything!
Only Him should be here.
Hungry, thirsty should not be here because all of this are obstacles on one's way.
It's true: when you chant the name of God continuously, you forget about the outside, even sometime you forget also your job.
So, if this comes so intense in your life: surrender.

A nice piece of kirtan glorifying Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu- the golden avatar .

Gauranga (the golden one) refers to Lord Caitanya, who has a fair complexion. In this form Lord Sri Chaitanya took the role of a devotee of God. Nithyananda Prabhu appeared in the form of a devotee's spiritual master. He is a manifestation of Balarama. Together they are called Nitai-Gauranga.
