K.R. Narayanan was the first man that was democraticly choosen for president of India in year 1997.
Is that connected with the prodigy song Narayan?

You know that part:
om namah narayana(n)...

Nope
Narayana is a deity, a four-armed god (I think Hinduism refers to him as also Krishna and other names. Must be 3 other names).
If you are interested in this, check out the Bhagadvad Gita, an excellent book for poeple who are interested in this religion (but don't want to be part of it.)
Really, if you want to be a real follower of this religion, you have to do so many strange things, as being happy all the day that Narayana is 'just there', and you should talk all day about him without being pissed off after a while.
Still better than some other religions... ahem.

Oh almost forgot:

'Um namah Narayana'
means praying to him and thank him,
'Um' is the holy syllable.

thanx man.
But i'm an atheist and i don't want to be a part of any religion,
But i respect them all.

In times like this, this decision seems not too bad.

I'm christ, but I'm very much interested in eastern religions.
Though I'd never want to change.

Bye,
Ekko
