Hey Jihvey Rasa-Sarajne Sarvada Madhur-Priyey
Naraya****hya Pijusham Piva Jihvey Nirantaram.
Oh, tongue, the great discriminator of all tastes, you always like
sweet tastes. Oh tongue; you please always drink the Amrita, whose
name is Narayana. The ordinary sweet taste of sugarcane, honey etc.
end but the Amrita of Narayana Naam is endless, limitless, and
measureless and you will never be able to finish it. This taste will
never turn sour or distasteful. You will be able to taste this Amrita
in new forms. As you go on drinking, you will realize that here is but
only one Rasa - there are not two. The Param Purusha, who is the
embodiment of all forms of Rasa, gets reflected at the doors of the
different Indriyas in different forms. That Purusha, full of Rasa, can
be felt by the tongue as taste, by the eye as beauty, by the ear as
sound, by the skin as touch and by the nose as smell. The Indriyas
grasp the same Sat, Chit, Anandamai Purusha who is the embodiment of
limitless Rasa in different ways. But the object to be taken hold of
is one only. If you go on doing Japa or the Narayana Naam, you will be
able to taste that Sat-Chit-Anandamai Purusha with all your Indriyas.
Narayana, Narayana, Narayana.
