Shrii Shrii Anandamurti ji unveiled the Mahamantra "Baba Nam Kevalam" on October 8, 1970, in Amjhariya, Palamu (Jharkhand), India.br br This powerful mantra has profound spiritual significance, rooted in the Sanskrit language. The term "Baba" refers to "my most beloved One," symbolizing the Supreme Being or Universal Consciousness. "Nam" means "name of" or "to identify with," signifying the process of connecting or merging with that Supreme Entity. Finally, "Kevalam" translates to "only" or "alone," implying the exclusive nature of this relationship. Therefore, the full mantra conveys the deep spiritual meaning: "My most Beloved is the only One." This mantra is an affirmation of the omnipresence of the Supreme Consciousness in all aspects of life.br br The ideation behind the mantra is a deeply meditative concept: "Everywhere I look, in everything I hear, feel, see, taste, and smell, I perceive that one Supreme Consciousness which pervades all things." This practice is a means of recognizing and realizing the presence of the Divine in all aspects of existence, both internal and external. The mantra reminds practitioners that everything in the universe is infused with the same Supreme Consciousness, allowing them to transcend the material world and unite with the higher spiritual reality.br br One of the most common ways to practice this mantra is through kiirtan, which involves singing the mantra aloud while ideating on the Supreme Being. Kiirtan is much more than just singing; it is a profound spiritual practice with numerous benefits. When engaging in kiirtan, the mind is focused on the Supreme, and all sensory and motor organs are directed towards this higher consciousness. This creates a state of deep devotion and joy, cultivating an inner feeling of bliss. The repetitive nature of the mantra, combined with the rhythmic music, helps to still the mind, allowing it to rise above everyday worries and distractions.br br The benefits of kiirtan are manifold. First and foremost, it purifies the mind, cleansing it of negative thoughts and emotions. This mental purification is a key step in preparing the mind for deeper meditation. As the mind becomes clear and focused through kiirtan, one is able to concentrate more easily during meditation, accelerating spiritual progress towards the realization of the Supreme. Kiirtan also has a calming effect on the nervous system, relieving physical and psychic stress, and contributing to overall well-being. Many practitioners find that kiirtan brings them mental clarity, often helping them to solve problems or find answers to difficult questions while performing it.br br Join the global community in chanting "Baba Nam Kevalam" and experience its life-changing power.
