'Ram' is a word within the ancient language of Sanskrit whose meaning is that which is 'pleased' that which 'enjoys' that which 'rejoices' and that which is 'happy'.

 

'Ram' whose meaning is to 'please' to 'enjoy' to 'rejoice' expands and becomes 'Rama' whose meaning is 'dear' and 'beloved' and 'charming' and 'beautiful' and 'lovely'.

 

'Rama' is also the name of the great 'Avatara' who descended as the 'perfect king' as can be seen within the great epic of India which is famously known as the 'Ramayana'.

'Rama' whose meaning is 'charming' and 'lovely' and 'beautiful' expands as 'Ramati' whose meaning is one who likes to 'remain in one place' and 'pleasing resort'.

 

'Ramati' meaning 'pleasant resort' is borrowed by Greece who add a prosthetic 'E' and this becomes 'Eramos' and 'Eramites' meaning 'lonely place' and 'solitary devotee'.

 

'Ramati' whose meaning is 'pleasant resort' continues within Greece as 'Heremia' meaning 'solitude' and 'Heremeo' meaning 'tranquil' and 'Heremizo' meaning 'calm'.

'Rama' whose meaning is to 'love' to 'please' to 'delight' is once again borrowed by the Greeks who add an 'E' to create 'Eramai' meaning to 'love' to 'desire' to 'long for'.

 

'Rama' which becomes 'Eramai' whose meaning is to 'love' is also the origin of 'Eros' the god of love within Greece and also words such as 'Erotic' and 'Erogenous'.

 

'Rama' is a word which goes back in time at least 5000 years to the Rig Veda and the Puranas and even further to the Ramayana which is said to be much, much older.

'Rama' a word which the Greeks add an 'E' to become 'Eramai' is then borrowed by the language of Latin who drop the 'R' to create 'Amare' whose meaning is 'love'.

 

'Rama' meaning to 'love' which becomes 'Amare' meaning to 'love' becomes 'Amateur' meaning one who does it for 'love' and 'Amenity' which is something we 'love'.

 

'Rama' whose meaning is to 'love' which becomes 'Amare' meaning to 'love' becomes 'Amigo' whose meaning is 'friend' and 'Paramour' whose meaning is 'lover'.

'Rama' meaning to 'love' which becomes 'Amare' meaning to 'love' is also seen within 'Amadeus' the name for 'Mozart' whose meaning is a lover ( amare ) of god ( deus ).

 

"Of purifiers I am the wind; of the wielders of weapons I am Rama; of fishes I am the shark, and of flowing rivers I am the Ganges." Gita 10.31


"Why was India a world power ? Sri Krishna lived in this country, Sri Rama lived here and Lord Buddha. Their teachings made India a great world power." Rukmini Rani Arundale.

Krishna consciousness means we should always be satisfied and happy, not that we must work something impossible, become overburdened and then, because we are unhappy by so much trouble, we lose enthusiasm and give up all hope. By all means we must preserve our spiritual status. That is the point.

 

Not that we are mad after big buildings, many devotees, life members, this, that. No. These are only the ways to engage the devotees, so that they may apply the principles of devotional service to some kind of work. It is not the result of the work that we want. If we sincerely preach to only one person a day, that is sufficient, never mind big, big programs.
