520 _aBy chanting Hare Krishna, we reap innumerable benefits. Chanting calms the mind, clarifies our thinking, brings unlimited happiness and auspiciousness, and purifies the consciousness, culminating in Krishna consciousness, or love of God. We can control our mind, instead of letting it control us. The Sanskrit word mantra means “to deliver (tra) the mind (man).” Chanting Hare Krishna, the great mantra, the maha-mantra, is a special opportunity to redeem our mundane life, given away to meaningless pursuits, and to participate in the divine consciousness. When the mind focuses on the Hare Krishna mantra, we become fully energetic, confident, and blissful. Anxieties, worries, and unnecessary wavering are overcome. A peaceful self is the basis for a happy and productive life. The Hare Krishna mantra properly channels our search within and provides occasions to visualize the ultimate source of energy within our heart. Chanting is thus the key to perceiving our true, spiritual self beyond the senses, mind, and intelligence—liberated from our karma and conditioning.
