So far yajna is concerned, we can perform this yajna, sankirtana-yajna. That is not very difficult. Everyone, at home or in this place… What is that?
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
It is the most inexpensive performance of yajna. Anyone can adopt it, just to learn these sixteen words:
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare,
these sixteen words.
Anyone, any illiterate man or any rich man, any poor man or any man of any country, these sixteen words anyone can learn.
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
And chant. Go on chanting it. There is no expenditure.
Suppose if you are moving on the street and if you go on chanting
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
There is no expenditure and there is no loss. Suppose you are sitting on the bus, on the car, for two hours. For two hours, if you go on chanting, “Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna,” then tremendous result. So why don’t you try it? There is no expenditure; there is no loss, neither loss of time, neither loss of money, neither loss of energy. There is no loss. Simply and melodiously, in a singing way, if you go on,
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
you will be directly associating with the Supreme Lord. You will be directly associating.
Now, suppose, theoretically accepting that if I am directly associating with Supreme Lord, then what else I want more? In the Bhagavad-gita it is said, yam labdhva caparam labham manyate nadhikam tatah. If you actually get the association of the Lord, then what else you have got to gain? You have got everything with you. So that is a fact. It is a question of realization only. And as soon as we get advanced in this chanting of this
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
then we shall gradually realize that actually God is with us. God is dancing on my tongue in the form of sound.
So this is the simplest process of yajna, and that is introduced by Lord Caitanya. Not that He has manufactured this process, but it is from authoritative scripture. And you can try it. You can try it. The result will be that gradually you will be on the way, on the path of liberation. Liberation means to get out of this material entanglement. Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu said that by chanting this krsna-sankirtana,
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
the first result will be that your heart will be cleared of all dust accumulated by years and years, life after life with this material association.
