Essence: “Real key to happiness you see in their (devotees) faces is not the discipline they are following, but the inner joy they are experiencing by chanting names of God – Hare Krsna Hare Krsna…Krsna is very blissful and when you associate with him through his name, you will also become blissful. You can also chant and experience the joy that comes from it. This is universal song of peace and happiness.”

Everything is favourable to carry us over the ocean of material existence. Only we have to agree to be carried.”
