Becoming Attached to Chanting
One must read Srimad Bhagavatam regularly and with scrutiny to gradually become attached to the chanting of the Hare Krishna maha mantra.

One may cleanse himself daily by taking a bath in water, but if one takes a bath even once in the sacred Ganges water of Bhagavad-gita, for him the dirt of material life is altogether vanquished.
Bhakti is a sort of cultivation. As soon as we say “cultivation”, we must refer to activity. Cultivation of spirituality does not mean sitting down idly for meditation, as some pseudo-yogis teach. Such idle meditation may be good for those who have no information of devotional service and for this reason it is sometimes recommended as a way to check distracting materialistic activities.
The supreme occupation (Dharma) for all humanity is that by which men can attain loving devotional service unto the transcendent Lord. Such devotional service must be unmotivated and uninterrupted in order to completely satisfy the self.
