The holy name of Ramatma is very glorified. Tulsiji says, Who else knows the glory of the name Ganesh? When Ganesha came to know the glory of his name, he was first worshiped in the world. His Highness Detective Jan Gunrau. The first worshiped name is Prabhau. The name-glory is mighty! Meditation was glorified in Satyuga. In the Treta Yuga, Yajnaya was predominant; Big yajnas used to be performed then. In Dwapar, people worshiped for hours in the Vaishnavite method. That is also a way. Do not criticize in any way. In Kaliyuga only the name of God is glorified. It does not mean that people do not meditate in Kaliyuga. Many people meditate; It is a very good method. So meditation has great glory. It is also good to perform Yajyagna, do it. But where are we able to do all that in today's Kali Yuga? We are all so busy that where can we worship for hours? So Tulsi said, in Kaliyuga only name is glorified. Take the name that interests you. Rama, Krishna, Shiva, Maa, Allah, God any name. Thakur used to go into samadhi while singing `Ma-ma'. Merely mentioning the name used to make him samadhi. Jagadguru Shankaracharya says in 'Devyaparadhakshamapanastotra', My final desire is “Shiva Shiva Bhavaniti Japatah.'' I constantly chant Shiva-Bhava. Advaita Shankar says so. Ravana said in 'Shivtandavastotra' that when will good days come for me? He says, when will the days come in my life when I will sit alone in the girini and worship 'Shiva-Shiva' with folded hands? After all, there is a name. Nothing is greater than a name. So Tulsi sang the glory of the third element here in 'Manas', the name-glory. It's a very long chapter. Name Pratapathi Shankar `Saj Amangal Mangal Rasi.' In the glory of the Name, great Siddhas, yogis suffer Brahmasukh. If Prahlad took refuge in the name- Narada Janeu the name Pratapu. Jag Dear Hari Harihar Dear Apu. Narada knew the glory of the name. The world loves Hari, but who loves Hari? Hari is dear to Hari. Shankar is dear to Vishnu and Pratapathi Narada is dear to both. Singing Naam-Mahimin, Tulsi says, Dhruva was not allowed to sit in his lap by his father, so he started feeling glani and taking refuge in Naam, he attained Dhruvata. Pole star is fixed. Sumiri Pawansut Pawan Namoo. Ramu, keep yourself busy. Pawanputra Hanuman subjugated the Lord who subjugates the entire world by remembering the name. Namu Ram Ko Kalpataru Kali Kalyan Nivasu. If Sumirat fear mang Te Tulsi Tulsidasu. Ramnam is the Kalpataru of Kali Yuga. This is not a mere definition. Dada just gave me Ramnaam and for me it was a miracle. This is not pride. Ramnaam mostly gets what you want; Whatever you wish will be fulfilled. I am experiencing. what do we have Just Ramnaam. And that is so much that will never diminish. A stone has no characteristic that it can float in water; If he shelters him, drown him! And the monkey is so fickle that it cannot build a bridge. And even the sea is undulating, how can a bridge be built over it? There is no magic of the sea in it, no influence of monkeys or the nature of stones. So Tulsi said, “Sri Raghubir Pratap Te Sindhu Tere Pashan.'' That bridge is the glory of Ramnam. Ramnam is the abode of welfare. Remembering the Ramnaam, Tulsi tells her experience that I was a low-grade plant like an intoxicating hemp, but with the glory of the name, I became a Tulsi plant, became Tulsidas. O Yajnavalkya Maharaja, explain to me the glories of that Rama, who by preaching the name of Rama sat in Kashi and kindly gives salvation to all living beings. So the glory of Ramnaam is incomparable. Kahaun Kahaan Lagi Naam Badai. Ramu Na Sakhin Naam Gun Gai. Here is the glorification of Ramnaam, it does not mean only Rama. What is your will is the glory of the name. There is only one thing. Does it matter if someone says `Allah-Allah'? Someone says `Ali Maula', someone says `Haribol', what difference does it make? Everyone is accepted here. A name means a name that suits your taste and personality. The glory of the name is incomparable. Kabira kua one hai, panihari many. Baratan sab nyare bhe pani sabmen ek. “So many.'' So in Kali Yuga there is glory of the name, whatever name you are interested in. Other means are exhausted, Ramnaam gives rest, it is written in 'Vinayapatrika': Nahin Awat An Bharoso. Yahi kalikalasakal sadhana taru, hai sram-falni faro so. } (Compilation: Nitin Vadgama)
