  Pranam Dearest Devotee. 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.  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, take care, bye.
