Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupâda KRISHNA consciousness is not an artificial
imposition on the mind; this consciousness is the original energy of
the living entity. When we hear the transcendental vibration, this
consciousness is revived. And this process is recommended for this age
by authorities. By practical experience also, one can perceive that by
chanting this maha-mantra, or the Great Chanting for Deliverance, one
can at once feel a transcendental ecstasy coming through from the
spiritual stratum. And when one is factually on the plane of spiritual
understanding--surpassing the stages of senses, mind, and
intelligence--one is situated on the transcendental plane. This
chanting of Hare KRISHNA, Hare KRISHNA, KRISHNA KRISHNA, Hare Hare,
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare is directly enacted from the
spiritual platform, and thus this sound vibration surpasses all lower
strata of consciousness-- namely sensual, mental, and intellectual.
There is no need, therefore, to understand the language of the mantra,
nor is there any need for mental speculation or any intellectual
adjustment for chanting this maha-mantra. It springs automatically from
the spiritual platform, and as such, anyone can take part in the
chanting without any previous qualification, and dance in ecstasy. We have seen this practically. Even a child
can take part in the chanting, or even a dog can take part in it. Of
course, for one who is too entangled in material life, it takes a
little more time to come to the standard point, but even such a
materially engrossed man is raised to the spiritual platform very
quickly. When the mantra is chanted by a pure devotee of the Lord in
love, it has the greatest efficacy on the hearers, and as such, this
chanting should be heard from the lips of a pure devotee of the Lord,
so that immediate effects can be achieved. As far as possible, chanting
from the lips of non devotees should be avoided. Milk touched by the
lips of a serpent has poisonous effects. The word Hara is the form of addressing the
energy of the Lord, and the words KRISHNA and Rama are forms of
addressing the Lord Himself. Both KRISHNA and Rama mean "the supreme
pleasure," and Hara is the supreme pleasure energy of the Lord, changed
to Hare in the vocative. The supreme pleasure energy of the Lord helps
us to reach the Lord. The material energy, called Maya, is also one
of the multi energies of the Lord. And we, the living entities, are
also the energy--marginal energy--of the Lord. The living entities are
described as superior to material energy. When the superior energy is
in contact with the inferior energy, an incompatible situation arises;
but when the superior marginal energy is in contact with the superior
energy, called Hara, the living entity is established in his happy,
normal condition. These three words, namely Hare, KRISHNA, and
Rama, are the transcendental seeds of the maha-mantra. The chanting is
a spiritual call for the Lord and His internal energy, Hara, to give
protection to the conditioned soul. This chanting is exactly like the
genuine cry of a child for its mother. Mother Hara helps the devotee
achieve the grace of the supreme father, Hari, or KRISHNA, and the Lord
reveals Himself to the devotee who chants this mantra sincerely. No other means of spiritual realization,
therefore, is as effective in this age as chanting the maha-mantra.

(The
acarya

example - that brought this mantra to the West)
The transcendental vibration established by
the chanting of Hare KRISHNA, Hare KRISHNA, KRISHNA KRISHNA, Hare Hare,
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare is the sublime method of
reviving our KRISHNA consciousness. As living spiritual souls we are
all originally KRISHNA conscious entities, but due to our association
with matter from time immemorial, our consciousness is now polluted by
the material atmosphere. The material atmosphere, in which we are now
living, is called Maya, or illusion. Maya means "that which is not."
And what is this illusion? The illusion is that we are all trying to be
lords of material nature, while actually we are under the grip of her
stringent laws. When a servant artificially tries to imitate the
all-powerful master, this is called illusion. In this polluted concept
of life, we are all trying to exploit the resources of material nature,
but actually we are becoming more and more entangled in her
complexities. Therefore, although we are engaged in a hard struggle to
conquer nature, we are ever more dependent on her. This illusory
struggle against material nature can be stopped at once by revival of
our KRISHNA consciousness.
