Scottish devotees singing the Hare krishna Maha Mantra after Gaura Arotik

Chanting the transcendental vibration Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare is the sublime method for reviving our transcendental consciousness, or Krishna consciousness.

As living spiritual souls, we are all originally Krishna conscious entities, but due to our association with matter from time immemorial, our consciousness is now polluted by the material atmosphere, called maya, or illusion. And what is this illusion? The illusion is that we are all trying to be lords of material nature, while actually we are under the grip of her stringent laws. When a servant artificially tries to imitate the all-powerful master, he is said to be in illusion. We are trying to exploit the resources of material nature, but actually we are becoming more and more entangled in her complexities. Therefore, although we are engaged in a hard struggle to conquer nature, we are becoming ever more dependent on her. This illusory struggle against material nature can be stopped at once by revival of our eternal Krishna consciousness.

Krishna consciousness is not an artificial imposition on the mind. This consciousness is the original energy of the living entity. When we hear and chant the transcendental vibration Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare, this consciousness is revived.

  • Serious question: Why do you chant like this? Also, the video shows a predominance of men, is that usual in Hare Krishna?

    :)

  • the men and women don't dance together so because Im a man im filming on the mens side of the room, the women are dancing on the other side. yea there were definately more men at this festival but that doesn't hold true in all temples around the globe, just at ours now you come to mention it,

    why do we chant like this, i put a detailed description on the right of the video,

    for more info go to Krishna,com you can can even talk to someone live and ask questions instantly.

  • Thank you for a genuinely comprehensive response.

    :)

  • not a problem, check out my other videos and let me know if you have any other questions, Gouranga!
