Gurunathar’s Divine Message Ashwini Pooja 07-04-2008
I would like to give an explanation. It was a good question I heard here. And I would like the one who asked it to listen to the answer. It is beneficial to read or write mantras? Similarly, what is the benefit of repeating the name of God? My reply: God is no different than His name. So when you repeat His name, He comes close to you and He is present! Mantras and Tantra’s are not really necessary. Just repeating His name and keeping this a constant habit will get you the benefit equal to going into God’s presence. It will also reveal the path to Mukthi. So why do we use Mantra’s and Tantra’s? They are useful in directing your minds and helping you concentrate. They are also useful in achieving various objectives. If reaching God is our only objective, chanting His name constantly and directing our thoughts towards Him is sufficient.
