Harer Namaiva Kevalam (Kevalastakam) | Nilakanta Goswami | Celtic Edition

A sublime Sanskrit prayer glorifying the sweetness and supreme importance of the Holy Name of Lord Hari. Written by Nilakanta Goswami, the Kevalastakam (eight verses selected from a larger work) emphasizes that in a world of illusion, the chanting of the Holy Name is the only absolute reality and the greatest treasure one can possess. Lyrics: (1) madhuraḿ madhurebhyo ‘pi mańgalebhyo ‘pi mańgalam pāvanaḿ pāvanebhyo ‘pi harer nāmaiva kevalam (2) ābrahmā-stamba-paryantaḿ sarvaḿ māyā-mayaḿ jagat satyaḿ satyaḿ punaḥ satyaḿ harer nāmaiva kevalam (3) sa guruḥ sa pitā cāpi sā mātā bāndhavo ‘pi saḥ śikṣayec cet sadā smartuḿ harer nāmaiva kevalam (4) niḥśvāse nāhi viśvāsaḥ kadā ruddho bhaviṣyati kīrtanīya mato bālyād harer nāmaiva kevalam (5) hariḥ sadā vaset tatra yatra bhāgavatā janāḥ gāyanti bhakti-bhāvena harer nāmaiva kevalam (6) aho duḥkhaḿ mahā-duḥkhaḿ duḥkhād duḥkhataraḿ yataḥ kācārthaḿ vismṛtaḿ ratnaḿ harer nāmaiva kevalam (7) dīyatāḿ dīyatāḿ karṇo nīyatāḿ nīyatāḿ vacaḥ gīyatāḿ gīyatāḿ nityaḿ harer nāmaiva kevalam (8) tṛṇī-kṛtya jagat sarvaḿ rājate sakalopari cid-ānanda-mayaḿ śuddhaḿ harer-nāmaiva kevalam Translation: 1) More sweet than all other sweet things; more auspicious than all other auspicious things; the greatest purifier of all purifying things—the holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 2) The entire universe, from exalted Brahma down to the lowly clump of grass, is a product of the illusory energy of the Supreme Lord. The only thing that is reality, reality, again I say reality—the holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 3) That person is a true preceptor, a true father, a true mother, and a true friend only if they teach one to always remember that the holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 4) There is no certainty when the last breath will come and put an abrupt halt to all one’s material plans; therefore, it is wise to always practice chanting from very childhood. The holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 5) Lord Hari eternally dwells in that place where truly exalted, spiritually advanced souls sing in the mood of pure devotion: the holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 6) Alas! What a sorrow, what a great sorrow! More painful than any other misery in the world! Mistaking it as a mere piece of glass, the people have forgotten this jewel: the holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 7) It should be heard again and again with one’s ears; it should be uttered over and over with one’s voice; it should be perpetually sung and sung anew. The holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. 8) It makes the entire universe seem insignificant as a blade of grass; it reigns supreme over all in a splendorous manner; it is full of eternally conscious divine ecstasy; it is supremely pure. The holy name of Sri Hari alone is everything. #kirtan #krishnamantra #sanskrit #bhajan #mantrameditation #holyname #devotion #vaishnava #spiritualmusic
