What We Should Be Doing
With our lips we should be chanting with our ears we should be hearing and with our heart we should be crying out for the Lord like a baby does for its mother.
Effect of Chanting
Simply by chanting the Hare Krishna mantra one revives his original relationship with God.

Chanting
If after years of chanting we still have no taste then we have some problem, either with hearing the Holy name or with our level of surrender.
Associating Directly With God
To chant God’s holy name means to associate directly with Him.
The Real Art of Living
When we hear about the Lord, we should hear with a spirit to serve the Lord. When we chant his names, we should chant so that He is pleased to hear us chanting. That is the beauty of life, the real art of living.
Chanting
Chanting the holy name of the Lord immediately renovates the transcendental relationship of the living being with the Supreme Lord.
