How do you do namasmaran?

Answer 1

Namasmaran means remembering the name of Almighty, God; actually implying true Self. It is accepted and practiced in most religions in different forms. It has the potential to help rise and blossom every practitioner to cosmic consciousness and universal unity. # The first thing is provisional acceptance of the concept. Hostility or submission are not conducice to build conviction based on sound foundation. # 2. Read the books written on namasmaran. This would give you the idea about the simplicity of the process and also why people start it and also give it up rather too quickly! # Select one place in your residence. Select a particular suitable time when you are not tired. Sit is any suitable position. Start remembering any name of God you are familiar with, belongs to your tradition or religion, or simply you have reverence about. Practice for about five minutes every day. # Continue without expecting anything miraculous. In fact initially you experience restlessness and feeling of wastage of time. This happens because we are used to think, feel and move unknowingly and mechanically in response to external and internal influences. Hence namasmaran, during which this thinking, feeling and moving activity is absent makes one feel suffocated, empty or useless. # Gradually you will get over this phase and enter into the realm free of the shackles of subjectivity, superficiality and pettiness. # You will then feel like sharing your experiences selflessly with others. You may happily do it but without discontinuing your namasmaran. # Namasmaran is simple, inexpensive, does not require any gadgets, does not require any change in cuture, does not have any glamour and glitter, does not give any tangible gains and hence usually quickly started but then also quickly given up. Hence persist on namasmaran irrespective of anything --- because namasmaran takes you beyond everything tangible towards ultimate freedom. Tips
