Ra in Sanskrit means "that which is radiant" and ma means "myself."
That which shines forth within me is Rama. That which is radiant in every particle of the being is Rama.Rama was born to Dasharatha and Kaushalya.
Dasharatha means "the ten-charioted one" in Sanskrit.
It signifies the five sense organs and the five organs of action.
Kaushalya is Sanskrit for "skilled." The skillful driver of the ten chariot can give birth to Ram.
When the five sense organs and the five organs of action are used skillfully, radiance is born within.
Rama was born in Ayodhya, which in Sanskrit means "the place where no war can happen." When there is no conflict in our mind, then radiance can dawn.Lakshmana, the brother of Rama, was born of Sumitra - the good friend.
When the ten are cooperating with you, awareness is born.Often we try to look for radiance within. Just realize that you are radiant.
Once when Sri Sri was 5 or 6 years old, he closed his eyes and said to a visiting saint, "Swamiji, I do not see any light." The saint replied, "You are the light! How can you see the light?"
SUTRA
“We need to educate people in human values like friendliness, compassion, cooperation, a sense of belonging and spirituality.” -Sri Sri
