If people would just wake up to what's real, there would be no misery in the world. I guess chanting's a pretty good place to start.

"Hallelujah" is a joyous expression the Christians have, but "Hare Krishna" has a mystical side to it. It's more than just glorifying God; it's asking to become His servant.
