Glories of Chanting

Everyone is looking for pleasure in this material world. Our soul is willing to have a relationship with the Lord...we have the potency of the maha mantra, these names connect us with the Supreme, that is why even by commiting offenses we still can feel some bliss and start a relationship with the Lord. Connection is the word that was stated this weekend in Japa Room and made me think if we want to have a good connection with the Lord we may have good results.

Our chances of improving in spiritual life will increase and be stable....in other words if we maintain a weak connection by not giving too much attention to improve  it may fail sometimes and we may even get disconnected and lose contact with the Lord.

The Holy names are so efficient that even a chanter who pronounces them for the first time receives the gift of getting purified. Everyone can feel pleasure in Krsna conscious, starting from hearing the mantra and then chanting makes this pleasure stronger because we are using our senses in this process. I found a great verse from Sri Krsna Namastakam that states some of the glories of this chanting.

"O Harinama, who are sung by the sages! O You who have assumed the form of transcendental syllables that bring great happiness to all people! Even if You are spoken only once, and even if You are spoken disrespectfully or in jest, You at once remove the many terrible sufferings of everyone."��Sri Krsna Namastakam Verse 2
