Dear Friends,
Radhe Radhe!
When there are so many different types of sprints and marathons, on the first Saturday of 2013 (Jan 5th), starting from New Zealand, Global Organization for Divinity - GOD Satsangs across the globe will participate in this unique Nama relay -where through a 24-hour period, the entire world will be covered starting from New Zealand and ending at California, USA. Over 1000 satsangs across the globe will be participating in this Nama relay. Sri Guruji (HH Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji) is extremely pleased with this initiative and had blessed the devotees participating in Nama relay.
There is nothing that can please Mahathmas and Bhagavan than chanting Bhagavan Nama. Also, no prayer can be more powerful than doing a congregational chanting of Mahamantra together in unison (Nama sankirtana yagyam).
This shall be a true event showcasing the presence of Bhagavathas (Bhagavan Nama lovers) across the globe and a step towards all great Mahans's vision of Nama ringing in every corner of the Universe.
We in Atlanta, will be participating in this Global Nama relay on Jan 5th from 3 to 5 PM at Venkatji and Jayaji's place. Since its Nama relay, the program will start ON TIME. Please reply back and confirm your participation.
Please come and participate in this two hour Mahamantra prayer session and get your prayers fulfilled !!!!

Srimad-Bhagavatam 11.5.36
kalim sabhajayanty arya
guna jnah sara-bhaginah
yatra sankirtanenaiva
sarva-svartho 'bhilabhyate
"Those who are actually advanced in knowledge are able to appreciate the essential value of this Age of Kali. Such enlightened persons worship Kali-yuga because in this fallen age all perfection of life can easily be achieved by the performance of sankirtana."
Srimad-Bhagavatam 12.3.51-2
kaler dosa-nidhe rajann
asti hy eko mahan gunah
kirtanad eva krsnasya
mukta-sangah param vrajet
krte yad dhyayato visnum
tretayam yajato makhaih
dvapare paricaryayam
kalau tad dhari-kirtanat
"The most important factor in this Age of Kali, which is an ocean of faults, is that one can be free from all contamination and become eligible to enter the kingdom of God simply by chanting the holy names. The self-realization that was achieved in the Satya millennium by meditation, in the Treta millennium by the performance of different sacrifices, and in the Dvapara millennium by deity worship can be achieved in the Age of Kali simply by chanting the holy names."
Srimad-Bhagavatam last verse 12.13.23
nāma-sańkīrtanaḿ yasya
sarva-pāpa praṇāśanam
praṇāmo duḥkha-śamanas
taḿ namāmi hariḿ param
I offer my respectfull obeisances unto Lord, Hari, the congregational chanting of whose holy names destoys all sinfill reactions, and the offering of obeisances unto whom relieves all material suffering.
Srimad-Bhagavatam 6.3.22
etavan eva loke 'smin
pumsam dharmah parah smrtah
bhakti-yogo bhagavati
tan-nama-grahanadibhih
"Devotional service, beginning with the chanting of the holy name of the Lord, is the ultimate religious principle for the living entity in human society."
Once again, Wish you and your family a wonderful, fun-filled, joyous, prosperous, peaceful and blissful (above everything, Nama-filled, and Guru krupa filled) new year 2013!
Pavithra Hari nama ki Jai !!!!
Regards
Kishore
GOD Atlanta
