Holy Name

Even death cannot harm those who meditate and remember the Lord. Hanumanji constantly meditated on the Holy Name of God. The Ramcharitmanas says, "By constant meditation Hanumanji was able to understand the Power of the Holy Name and also Lord Rama, by which he gained control over the Supreme Lord." Remembrance of Lord has immense strength. If we remember the Almighty in our lives then our progress is definite. Regarding meditation, our saints said, "Engage consciousness in remembrance, do not speak. Close the outer doors and open the doors leading inside." Only when we become introverted will our lives become meaningful. That is why it is said, "It is not a matter of discussion but of actual experience: the wedding guests are forgotten as soon as the groom and the bride meet." It is said that this is not a matter of discussion or of reading and writing. This is matter of realizing God by seeing Him face to face. Saint Kabir Das said, "How can your and my mind become one? What I say is what I experience and see whilst what you say is based on hearsay and on what you read. I recommend you wake up and let us see how your and my mind can achieve the same wavelength."
