Devotee (3): Srila Prabhupada, today is the beginning of urja-vrata. Can you describe what that is, urja-vrata, how it should be observed?

Prabhupada: Urja-vrata, you chant Hare Krsna twenty-four hours one month. [laughter] That’s all.

Gurudasa: Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna…

Prabhupada: Yes. Don’t sleep, don’t eat. This is urja-vrata. Can you execute?

Devotee (3): I don’t know. [laughter]
