The Nectar of the Holy Names

I want to share something very auspicious that happened today while I was chanting on my beads.
My brother and I usually wake up at 5am to chant...today when I woke up he was already chanting and I felt more inspired to do it. When I was praying, I asked Krsna to give me association of the devotees and use me and my family as instruments for preaching. My brother never disturbs me while we are chanting but today I noticed he stopped his chanting and came to talk to me.
He said that he was chanting in the garden and a worker was passing on the street and asked him - "Are you praying? Is this a mantra? Everyday I go to work and I listen to this sound and I feel some peace...can you explain more about this mantra?"
That was all my brother wanted...to find an opportunity to preach and the Holy names gave him this chance. He got into the living room, picked a book from Srila Prabhupada and gave it to this man and told him - "The mantra is here on this page." The man took the book and went to work. I was amazed how the Holy names purify people just by listening.
In this case the Holy names made the preaching and  maybe a new devotee. This is how Krsna works and this is the purpose of this Sankirtan movement...preaching KC through chanting, hearing and distributing prasadam.

Haribol.
