अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न
What does 'Ram Ram' mean?
'Ram' (or Rama) means 'the one in whom the wise rejoice' (from the Sanskrit root 'ram' — to delight, to enjoy). It refers to Lord Rama, the 7th avatar of Vishnu in the Dashavatara. Saying 'Ram Ram' as a greeting is the traditional Vaishnavite greeting in many parts of North and Central India, meaning 'I greet you in the name of Rama'. As a mantra, repetition of 'Ram' is the Taraka Mantra — the mantra that carries the soul across the ocean of birth and death.
What is the Rama Taraka Mantra?
The 'Taraka Mantra' (taraka = that which ferries across, that which liberates) in the Vaishnava tradition refers specifically to the name 'Rama'. The Padma Purana states that the two syllables Ra and Ma contain respectively the first letter of the Vishnu Sahasranama and the first letter of the Shiva Sahasranama, making 'Rama' a union of both supreme deities. It is said that Shiva himself whispers the Taraka Mantra in the ear of the dying at Kashi (Varanasi) — this is the central belief behind the Kashi Labh tradition.
