"By reciting His name, everything is achieved. EVERYTHING." | Mantra 101

"We should always be confident that this chanting is not a vibration of this material world.  It is imported from the spiritual world.  It is completely spiritual." - Narottama dasa Thakura "Only God's name is real." -Larry Brilliant   "It's all illusion except the name of the Lord." -The Ramayana   "Rams' form left this world, Krishna's form left this world, but the Name stays.  By reciting His Name, everything is achieved. Everything is achieved."  -Maharajji (Maharajji constantly chanted Ram all of his waking hours) "Kalau nasty eva nasty eva na-sty eva gatir anyatha", or, "in this age, there is no other alternative, no other alternative, no other alternative than to chant the holy name of the Lord (Hare Krishna)." - Caitanya Mahaprabhu via Srila Prabhupada "National duties, social duties, and humanitarian duties are obligatory only to those who are bereft of spiritual duties.  As soon as man takes his birth on earth, he has all these obligations to the great sages that left behind vast treasure houses of knowledge to guide him through life, to forefathers, family members, the government, and so forth and so on.  But as soon as one engages himself in the one single obligatory duty- the duty of spiritual perfection- then he automatically liquidates all other obligations without having to make separate efforts." -Stephen Knapp Books- Polishing the Mirror by Ram Dass The Mantram Handbook by Ekwath Easwaran Documentaries- American Yogi, Hare Krishna, Becoming Nobody, and Windfall of Grace (starring K.K.
