This is the only medicine
Prabhupada: Ceto-darpana-marjanam [Cc. Antya 20.12]. And then bhava-maha-davagni… Then his material pangs will be over. This is the only medicine. Therefore chant Hare Krsna. Some way or other, let them have the chance of hearing, and then it will act as medicine

Even the very sound of the holy name of Lord Krishna or Rama can at once surcharge the atmosphere spiritually.
