नेहमी नामस्मरण केले असता सर्व काम आपोआप होते. देव साहय्य करतो. सत्यसंकल्पाचा दाता भगवान त्यामुळे आरोग्य प्राप्त होऊन आनंदच होतो. रोज तीन वेळा निष्ठेने नामस्मरण केले असता मनात संशय,विकल्प निर्माण होत नाहीत व सदगुरु देहाने दूर असले तरी संकट दूर करण्यास शिष्याच्या जवळच असतात, असा अनुभव येतो. - साधक बोध.

Athavani by P. Lalitakka
11. Shri Gurudev used to often ask Shri Pralhadrao Kulkarni the meanings of Kannada words. Once Shri Gurudev asked Shri Pralhadrao the meaning of 'Nere nambu'.He said 'believe in God properly or thoroughly ' .Shri Gurudev was not satisfied. Gurudev then asked the meaning of 'Nere Hore '.Shri Pralhadrao said neighbourhood or placed /situated at right or left. Then Shri Gurudev said, " Now I got the meaning of Nere nambu. ' further Gurudev said, " It is believing in God only after having Sakshatkar. Being beside God. Then believing in him. "
Till then no one had given the meaning of the phrase so accurately.




ओळखिला हरि सांठविला पोटीं । होतां त्याची भेटी दुःख कैंचें ॥१॥
नर अथवा नारी हो कां दुराचारी । मुखीं गातां हरि पवित्र तो ॥२॥
पवित्र तें कुळ धन्य त्याची माय । हरि मुखें गाय नित्य नेमें ॥३॥

काम क्रोध लोभ जयाचे अंतरीं । नाहीं अधिकारी ऐसा येथें ॥४॥
वैष्णवांचें गुह्य काढिलें निवडुनी । एका जनार्दनीं हरि बोला ॥५॥

Let us learn to contain our ego! Let us strive to get strong to bear the consequences of the faults of the world! Let us be judicious to offer support for those who are in grief, so they can relieve of it themselves!
ಲೋಕದ ಡೊಂಕ ನೀವೇಕೆ ತಿದ್ದುವಿರಿ ?
ನಿಮ್ಮ ನಿಮ್ಮ ತನುವ ಸಂತೈಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿ;
ನಿಮ್ಮ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಮನವ ಸಂತೈಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿ.
ನೆರೆಮನೆಯ ದುಃಖಕ್ಕೆ ಅಳುವರ ಮೆಚ್ಚ
ನಮ್ಮ ಕೂಡಲಸಂಗಮದೇವ.

Why do you try to mend the failings of the world?
Strengthen (Assuage) your bodies first, each one of you!
Strengthen (Assuage) your own minds, each one of you!
Lord Kudala Sangama Deva does not approve (sympathize with) those bemoaning (weeping for) neighbor’s grief!
