Kirtana [chanting Hare Krishna] in Every Town and Village
If you vibrate these transcendental sounds everywhere continually, it will pierce their ears and enter their hearts, and then their natural attraction for Krsna will be revived.
My Dear Bansidhari,
Please accept my blessings. I beg to thank you for your nice report from Santa Barbara dated October 22nd, 1970. I am always so glad to know that you are keeping to the standard practices as I have instructed you to do and all the devotees are feeling the sublime result of their work in Krsna’s loving service. Yourprogram for extending Sankirtana Party activities to the nearby towns andcities and universities is very welcome. I have received similar good report ofsuch extended Sankirtana Party tours or trips from many other centers in Europeas well as America.Lord Caitanya’s desire was that this chanting of the Holy Names be spread toevery town and village on the face of the globe, and now His desire is beingfulfilled. That is to your credit as sincere servants of the Lord.
It is always the difficulty with the karmis that they “have no time” for attending spiritual functions or gatherings. Sukadeva Goswami analyzes the situation for the karmis in the narration of Bhagavatam as sleeping and indulging in sex-life in the night and in the daytime working hard “Where ismoney? Where is money?” and when they have got money, how to accumulatehousehold paraphernalia, etc. Anyway, by the mercy of Lord Caitanya even suchmaterially absorbed persons can be extricated from their entanglement in themaya by contact with offenseless chanting of the Lord’s Holy Names Hare KrsnaMantra. If you vibrate these transcendental sounds everywhere continually, itwill pierce their ears and enter their hearts, and then their naturalattraction for Krsna will be revived. So do not care for the temporary excusesof the unwilling and unfortunate persons, you simply carry our program forwarddistributing Sankirtana, Prasadam and literatures and the effect will takeplace.
I am very glad that your distribution to the libraries is well recieved. Please get our books at least one full set in every city and college library in you neighboring areas. And if you read these literatures carefully you will realize the topmost science of Krsna Consciousness and be more inspired tospread the same to all persons as their real welfare benefit.
