Why don't you chant for love ?

[krsna 3]

But we can chant for love

Let's cut the idle talk so we can

Chant for love

We always have the time to quarrel

About such problems as money and war

Let's put it off until tomorrow

Who needs another dose of sorrow?

 

It don't necessitate an act of faith

To chant for love

What alibi is strong enough to wait

To chant for love

Though we don't hold the reigns of power

Somebody else seems to be in control

We mustn't waste another hour

We'll get directly to the soul

If we can

 

Chant

For a world united

Chant

For a world that's dying for love

 

The Hare Krishna plays a drum and bell

When he chants for love

The tribal priest is afraid of hell

So he chants for love

I am not pushing some religion

Don't get me wrong,

I never mess with such things

Just be true to your own vision

This is your personal decision

 

The Dervish spins to a "Hu Hu Hu"

When he chants for love

Nobody knows what the angels do

When they chant for love

You're at the bottom of the ladder

Someone may try to tell you where you should start

But the words, they never matter

If you can feel it in your heart

Then you can

 

Why don't you chant?

You can chant

Chant, chant, chant

There are instances in history of great personalities, including sages and kings, who attained perfection by this process. Some of them attained success even by adhering to one single item of devotional service with faith and perseverance. Some of these personalities are listed below.

 

 

1. Emperor Pariksit attained the spiritual platform simply by hearing from such an authority as Sri Sukadeva Gosvami.

 

 

2. Sri Sukadeva Gosvami attained the same simply by recitation, verbatim, of the transcendental message which he received from his great father, Sri Vyasadeva.

[krsna 3]

Not mere comotion

 

All attention for the Holy Name

 

Nama Prabhu is our Istha

 

Chanting is the way to Krsna in this bloody age of quarrel.
