Tvameva Gatir Mama he Gurunatha
Sathguru Padhukam
Guru Matha Guru Pitha
Vasudeva Vasudeva
Dhanya Dhanya
Ajaneya Ram as Mangalam

The devotees offered flowers and Namaskarams to Sri Sri Swamiji and Sri Premika Varadhan. The event concluded with a closing speech by Nithyaji on the ‘Why Mahamantra’ and the Power of ‘Rama’ and ‘Krishna’ Nama as ‘Pavana’ and ‘Prayaschitha’ Nama. Narayananji added that if any one wished to host a satsang for Namakirtan, the devotees would be more than willing to join the hosts.

Mahamantra CDs and stickers were distributed to all devotees in the satsang. In Sri Sri Swamiji’s words ‘All who chant Nama are my kith and kin’, a whole bunch of new relatives from Woburn joined Sri Sri Swamijis circle. It was also announced that regular weekly satsangs will be conducted at Sri Narayananji’s residence on all Sundays from 3:30pm to 4:30pm EST.
