The Three Secrets

The first and the most important is called "Ashtakshara". This consists of 8 syllables and is in the form of three words. The first word is a single syllable Om. The second word is Namaha. The third word is Narayanaya. So, the ashtakshara is OM NAMO NARAYANAYA. This means "Salutation to Narayana". We will discuss the deeper meaning later.

The second secret is called "Dvaya". This is in two parts. The first part is "Sriman Narayana Charanau Saranam Prapadye". This means "I seek refuge at the feet of Sriman Narayana." The second part is "Srimate Narayanaya Namaha". This means "My salutation to Sriman Narayana." We will discuss the deeper meanings later.

The third secret is "Charama Sloka", which occurs in the last chapter of Bhagavad Gita. This sloka says: "Having already given up dharmas, as a means to attain moksha; surrender yourself fully to Me. I will free you, from all the sins; do not grieve." These are the words of Krishna.

Explanation:

> Krishna the Lord is the Invisible One who presides over the Universe. In Dwapara Yuga He took form, established the Law and gave the Bhagavad Gita.

> The mantram aims at worship of the Formless One and the Formed One too, as per the student's inclination. Worshipping the Formless One through the medium of the form is the synthesis of Vedic worship, while the Formless, Nameless, Unthinkable and Unspeakable Absolute One is also contemplated.

> Lord Krishna is Narayana, Vasudeva and Vishnu, He performed all the 3 roles as per the need of the situation which was bewildering even to the greatest adepts such as Narada, Veda Vyasa, S**a and Maitreya. The Narayana, Vasudeva and Vishnu aspects are explained in the preceding mantrams.

> The symbol is Krishna's idol standing on the right foot, the left foot crossing it and playing the flute music, fulfilling all the surroundings and entering into the utterer as his own utterance.

> The colour is blue.

> The mantram is conceived in 18 syllables in tune with the key of occultism. 18 is the key to occultism. It refers to the invisible part of the visible Universe. "18 are the invisible principles of the visible Universe of 6 principles", says the Veda. "3/4 is invisible and 1/4 is visible", says the Purusha Suktam of the Rig Veda. It is the number of fulfilment through sacrifice. It is significant to note that the Mahabharata is composed by Veda Vyasa in 18 cantos. 18 squadrons participated in the war. The war was fought for 18 days. 18 major heroes took part in it. The Bhagavad Gita, The Celestial Song, given at the beginning of the war, also comprises of 18 chapters.

> The mantram may be chanted in multiples of 18 in the Full Moon hours, especially in the seasons where the flowers and the fruits are in plenty.
