Am C Edim Dm F) PURPORT By
His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Prabhupâda Krsna
consciousness is not an artificial imposition
on the mind; this consciousness is the
original energy of the living entity. When we
hear the transcendental vibration, this
consciousness is revived. And this process is
recommended for this age by authorities. By
practical experience also, one can perceive
that by chanting this maha-mantra, or the
Great Chanting for Deliverance, one can at
once feel a transcendental ecstasy coming
through from the spiritual stratum. And when
one is factually on the plane of spiritual
understanding--surpassing the stages of
senses, mind, and intelligence--one is
situated on the transcendental plane. This
chanting of Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna
Krsna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama
Rama, Hare Hare is directly enacted from the
spiritual platform, and thus this sound
vibration surpasses all lower strata of
consciousness-- namely sensual, mental, and
intellectual. There is no need, therefore, to
understand the language of the mantra, nor is
there any need for mental speculation or any
intellectual adjustment for chanting this
maha-mantra. It springs automatically from
the spiritual platform, and as such, anyone
can take part in the chanting without any
previous qualification, and dance in
ecstasy. We
have seen this practically. Even a child can
take part in the chanting, or even a dog can
take part in it. Of course, for one who is
too entangled in material life, it takes a
little more time to come to the standard
point, but even such a materially engrossed
man is raised to the spiritual platform very
quickly. When the mantra is chanted by a pure
devotee of the Lord in love, it has the
greatest efficacy on the hearers, and as
such, this chanting should be heard from the
lips of a pure devotee of the Lord, so that
immediate effects can be achieved. As far as
possible, chanting from the lips of non
devotees should be avoided. Milk touched by
the lips of a serpent has poisonous
effects. The
word Hara is the form of addressing the
energy of the Lord, and the words Krsna and
Rama are forms of addressing the Lord
Himself. Both Krsna and Rama mean "the
supreme pleasure," and Hara is the supreme
pleasure energy of the Lord, changed to Hare
in the vocative. The supreme pleasure energy
of the Lord helps us to reach the
Lord. The
material energy, called Maya, is also one of
the multi energies of the Lord. And we, the
living entities, are also the
energy--marginal energy--of the Lord. The
living entities are described as superior to
material energy. When the superior energy is
in contact with the inferior energy, an
incompatible situation arises; but when the
superior marginal energy is in contact with
the superior energy, called Hara, the living
entity is established in his happy, normal
condition. These
three words, namely Hare, Krsna, and Rama,
are the transcendental seeds of the
maha-mantra. The chanting is a spiritual call
for the Lord and His internal energy, Hara,
to give protection to the conditioned soul.
This chanting is exactly like the genuine cry
of a child for its mother. Mother Hara helps
the devotee achieve the grace of the supreme
father, Hari, or Krsna, and the Lord reveals
Himself to the devotee who chants this mantra
sincerely. No
other means of spiritual realization,
therefore, is as effective in this age as
chanting the maha-mantra. Hare Krsna, Hare
Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama,
Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. I

(The
acarya - teacher by example - that brought this
mantra to the West)The
transcendental vibration established by the
chanting of Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna
Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama
Rama, Hare Hare is the sublime method of
reviving our Krsna consciousness. As living
spiritual souls we are all originally Krsna
conscious entities, but due to our
association with matter from time immemorial,
our consciousness is now polluted by the
material atmosphere. The material atmosphere,
in which we are now living, is called Maya,
or illusion. Maya means "that which is not."
And what is this illusion? The illusion is
that we are all trying to be lords of
material nature, while actually we are under
the grip of her stringent laws. When a
servant artificially tries to imitate the
all-powerful master, this is called illusion.
In this polluted concept of life, we are all
trying to exploit the resources of material
nature, but actually we are becoming more and
more entangled in her complexities.
Therefore, although we are engaged in a hard
struggle to conquer nature, we are ever more
dependent on her. This illusory struggle
against material nature can be stopped at
once by revival of our Krsna
consciousness.
