GLORIES OF CHANTING THE HOLY NAMES OF KRISHNA!

(From SRI CAITANYA CARITAMRUTA -  Antya-Lila - Chapter 20 by Srila Prabhupada)

TEXT 12:

"Let there be all victory for the chanting of the holy name of Lord Krishna, which can cleanse the mirror of the heart and stop the miseries of the blazing fire of material existence. 

That chanting is the waxing moon that spreads the white lotus of good fortune for all living entities. It is the life and soul of all education. 

The chanting of the holy name of Krishna expands the blissful ocean of transcendental life. It gives a cooling effect to everyone and enables one to taste full nectar at every step”. 

TEXT 16 :

"My Lord, O Supreme Personality of Godhead, in Your holy name there is all good fortune for the living entity, and therefore You have many names, such as Krishna and Govinda, by which You expand Yourself. 

You have invested all Your potencies in those names, and there are no hard and fast rules for remembering them. 

My dear Lord, although You bestow such mercy upon the fallen, conditioned souls by liberally teaching Your holy names, I am so unfortunate that I commit offenses while chanting the holy name, and therefore I do not achieve attachment for chanting”.
