  Pranam My Dearest Rohetha Maharaj. Hare Krishna.

  May you be blessed with the shelter of the God of Gods,

  the Absolute Truth and the Primeval cause of all the causes

  of the creation, sustenance and destruction of the manifested

  universes, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna,

  Who is the Original seed of all existences, the

  Intelligence  of the intelligent,  the Prowess  of all powerful

  people, the Strength of  the strong devoid of  passion and

  ignorance. I offer my respectful obeisances unto Him.  In

  Krishna consciousness, hearing  and  chanting  are  emphasized

  very  much. You have heard a lot about chanting. So

  why is hearing from authority stressed so much ? Through

  hearing, you begin bhakti. From being in  bondage, you become

  a seeker. Through hearing, you carry out your spiritual practices.

  Through hearing, the nine processes of bhakti are understood.

  Through hearing,  bad  habits  and  bad  manners  are changed.

  Through hearing, you rid  yourself  of  bad  company. Through

  hearing, your thinking becomes clear. As you have to eat again

  and again in your daily life, so also you engage in hearing again

  and again. Through hearing, your intellect becomes firm. Through

  hearing, you will begin to reflect on your life, and  you will

  attain  inner contentment. Through  hearing, detachment 

  arises  within  you. Through  hearing,  attachment  to  sensual 

  pleasures are cut.  Through hearing,  pride is broken.  Through

  hearing, the sense of  "I" and  "mine" is broken. Through hearing,

  your  doubts  are  cleared. Through  hearing,  your misunderstanding

  is  dispelled. Through  hearing, one  gains  conviction. Through

  hearing, your mind becomes controlled. Through hearing,

  you  become  aware  that  you are  more  than  this  material body.

  Through hearing, your understanding increases. Through hearing,

  your intelligence becomes developed. Through hearing, you become

  strong to turn away from worldly entanglements. Through hearing,

  your fascination with material objects are no more. Through hearing,

  you become strong in knowledge. Through hearing, you will be free

  from the miseries of material existence. Through hearing, there will

  arise in  you a  weariness  with  material pursuits. Though  hearing,

  you become inspired and you become committed to regular spiritual

  practises. Through hearing, you attain peace.  With love  and best

  wishes,

  Pranam Dearest Devotee. Hare Krishna.

  May you receive transcendental blessings, grace and mercy

  from the God of Gods, the Supreme Personality of Godhead,

  Lord  Krishna, Who  is  Omniscient,  Insurmountable  and

  Self-manifest. Lord Krishna personally bestows upon all

  eternal entities their particular natures through the agency

  of His  Inconceivable potency.  I  offer  my  respectful 

  obeisances  unto Him.   By  following Vedic  ritualistic

  ceremonies or undergoing atonement, sinful men do not

  become as purified as by chanting once the Holy Name of

  Lord Hari. Although ritualistic atonement may free one

  from sinful  reactions, it  does not  awaken  devotional

  service, unlike the chanting of the Lord`s Names, which

  reminds one of  the Lord`s fame,  qualities,  attributes,

  pastimes and paraphernalia. The ritualistic ceremonies of

  atonement recommended in the religious scriptures are

  insufficient to cleanse the heart absolutely because after

  atonement  one`s mind  again  runs  towards  material

  activities. Consequently, for one who wants liberation

  from the fruitive  reactions  of material activities, the

  chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra or the glorification

  of  the name, fame  and  pastimes of  Lord Krishna  is

  recommended as the most perfect process of atonement

  because such chanting  eradicates the  dirt from  one`s

  heart completely. With love and best wishes, take care,

  bye.   Radhe Radhe.
