People love Baba (Sitaramdas Omkarnath) in the same proportion as they repeat Naam; your Baba loves Naam very dearly. Forever and ever sing Naam to Him.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
To chant Naam is to do great service to Sitaram. Consider yourself to be akin to a blade of grass. As you sing Naam, earn the virtue of tolerance of a blade of grass.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
“I” am no different from Naam; sustain the Naam on the tongue, in your breath, in the mind, in the heart, uphold Naam everywhere, drown yourself in Naam, only then will you be able to live in my heart and all the burning pain will cool down.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
In this Kaliyuga, there is no other way than taking refuge in Him and chanting Naam. ‘I take refuge in you’, ‘I am at your mercy, protect me!’ – reciting this mahamantra and chanting Naam while sitting and standing, eating and lying down– this alone is the supreme remedy.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
In Kaliyuga one of the most accessible, simple, easy, joyous and incomparable means of welfare of the world is to steadfastly take refuge in Naam-Sundara. Name (of God) and God are one and the same.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
The means to attain bhakti (devotion) is Naam; Naam helps grant salvation to individual selves in Kali Yuga; that is why the virtuous, as well as those adept in perceiving the essence, highly revere Kali Yuga. The beings of the other Yugas desire to be born in Kali Yuga.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
Naamkirtan alone is the way in Kali Yuga. The specially qualified one gets more fruit out of writing Naam than kirtan; he is freed from incurable maladies.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
Hare Krishna Mantra has a foundation in Vedas, Tantras and Puranas. Sri Mahaprabhu preached this Naam. This is the Naam-deliverer of Kali Yuga.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
The path of Naam Samkirtana is simple, straight and easily reached. The splendour of My Name transcends even that of Veda and Vedanta. Those who forever sing the Name of God are equally worshipped in all the three worlds. Their blessing delivers the sinful and the afflicted.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath

To seek authentic welfare of every devotee, and to bless them, preach the adoption of Tarak Brahma Naam: Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Ram Hare Ram Ram Ram Hare Hare, may it be sung to the accompaniment of khol and kartaal and with dance. That is enough. This alone will manifest the Anahat Naad.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
By singing Naam loudly the birds and the beasts, plants and trees, are all sanctified (by listening to Naam), the Naamkari is also sanctified. There’s one more thing: normally only those who are in close vicinity hear Naam, but by singing it loudly Naam will mix with air and reach those who are even five hundred feet far. It will sanctify the atmosphere, the distant ones will be blessed, and breathing in this charged air, their hearts will be purified. – 250

Naam is definitely a great spiritual practice, but it is not difficult at all. It is something which children, old men, young boys and girls, everyone can do. By adopting Naam, one can be rid of sorrow, disease, distress and suffering. This is a practice that embodies the essence of various sadhanas (spiritual practices).
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
There is no one who is free from physical or mental disorders. Nor is there anyone who is free from all wants. That is why it is necessary for everyone to repeat ‘Ram’, ‘Ram’. ‘Ram Naam’ means Name of God. Whichever Name (of the deity) has been given by one’s Guru, by repeating that very Name, man succeeds in reaching the destination.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
Self-restraint and sacred texts establish a man in supreme bliss. He, who is good for nothing and cannot undertake to purify food habits, cannot seek association of holy men, nor do any worship, the way for such a person is ‘Ram Naam’.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
This world is created from Shabda (sound); whatever is visible outside is the manifestation of compact mass of Shabda (sound). Inside, the same Shabda or Naad sports, in the form of Para in the anal region, Pashyanti in the navel, Madhyama in the heart and Vaikhari in the tongue. This Shabda is indeed God.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
Everything in this world is asat (unreal), only Naam is sat (real).
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
There is but one single entity – it is seen as a form with the eyes, ears hear it, skin touches it, and the tongue tastes it. The entity is but one.
— Sri Sri Sitaramdas Omkarnath
Shastras have proclaimed it loudly – other than the inferior pleasure of the senses, there is a great joy on earth which is sublime and supreme. This very body can experience it; it can be obtained in this Yuga only through chanting of Naam.
