Sri Siksastakam Verse 3 – June 17, 2017

In this class, Śrīla Dhanurdhara Swami speaks on the third verse of the Śrī Śikṣāṣṭakam at Jagannātha Mandir.

 


tṛṇād api su-nīcena taror iva sahiṣṇunā
amāninā māna-dena kīrtanīyaḥ sadā hariḥ
 

One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige and should be ready to offer all respect to others. In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly.
