“When Lord Caitanya visited South India, he visited all the temples. Not only the Visnu temples, but also the Siva temples, the Durga temple, the Meenakshi temple, Ganesh temple, Murugan temple. He visited all the temples. But at every temple he would chant the same mantra Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare | Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.

He would give this message to everyone, chant the Hare Krsna maha mantra. This is the mantra for the age of Kali and this mantra can be chanted without any restriction, not only the brahmanas but anybody of any caste any community can chant this mantra. So how many of you are regularly chanting? Wow..so many!!

Those who are not chanting should immediately start chanting and those who are chanting should be very determined that chanting is going on. This chanting is the link in our heart, our eternal relationship with Krsna.”

“Lord Caitanya, He was encouraging that we should chant everyday, kirtaniyah sada harih, all the time by reading the saying Krishna namastha kaho. By chanting hare Krishna constantly, we get forgiven for all these offenses.

Whether they were brahmachari, whether they were grihasta. Therefore, He said, grhe thako, vane thako, sada ‘hari’ bole’ dako. Whether somebody is a grihasta or somebody is in the renounced order, he should chant hare Krishna.

Narottam Das thakur who was a life long brahmacari, he is saying, grihe ba bone de thake. Whoever, whether they stay in a Grihasta house or they are living in a forest or ashram or hermitage.

Jibaha Gauranga take sei amar pran: Whoever with feeling chats, Ha Gauranga! he is my life and soul, dear to Me as My life. So there is no sectarian vision here. Everyone is dear according to their devotion.“

“In the Caitanya Caritamrita, Lord Caitanya expressed that He wanted to see everyone receive the mercy of the Holy Name and also the fruit of love of Godhead. But He was concerned that alone He would not be able to reach everyone; thus he ordered everyone to assist Him. “I am the only gardener, ” He said. ” How many places can I go? How many fruits can I pick and distribute?” (CC Adi 9.34)

Srila Prabhupada established a trademark for the International Society for Krishna Consciousness: “ISKCON”. He stated that ISKCON is a branch of Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s tree. When devotees use the trademark ISKCON it is synonymous with “Gauranga” as mentioned by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura.

The instruction is that preachers should work under the shelter of Lord Caitanya and His bona fide representative. All devotees should understand that we are members Lord Caitanya’s sankirtana movement and are simply acting on His behalf.

If one does not strictly follow the orders of the previous acaryas, his potency to preach will diminish and ultimately be lost. “Counterfeit goods” signifies the quality of preaching that ultimately produces mixed, or impure bhakti, whereas “Genuine goods” indicates pure devotional service.”

“In Kali-Yuga, the potency of the holy abode of Sri Navadvipa-dhama ever increases. At the time when Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura was preaching, the primary marketing of the holy name was occuring at Surabhi Kunja, in Godrumadvipa, one of the nine islands of Navadvipa. Lord Nithyananda had also done marketing there. Across the Jalangi River, just in front of Bhaktivinod Thakura’s house, Srila Prabhupada established the world headquarters of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness: Sri Mayapur Candrodaya Mandir.

Srila Prabhupada quoted Bhaktivinoda Thakura, who had said that Navadvipa is the most sacred region in the universe, and added that within Navadvipa-dhama the Sri Mayapur Candrodaya Mandira is the most auspicious and important place, for it is Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s karma-sthana, His field of activity. Srila Prabhupada explained that Lord Caitanya’s karma-sthana is even more sacred and important than His birthplace.“

“The mercy of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nithyananda decends through Their devotees. Devotees who have received krsna-prema by the mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu are able to distribute this love of Godhead. Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura illustrates this process by using the analogy: ‘the transcendental marketplace of the Lord.

In compliance with Lord Caitanya’s order, everyone must accept Krishna consciousness and also share it with others. According to individual capacity, everyone should become a vehicle for spreading the hold name of Krishna. It is not a stereotyped process. Anyone can do it under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master, who functions as the representative of Lord Nithyananda, the original spiritual master.“
