“An excerpt from a lecture given by Srila Prabhupada on December 23, 1968 in Los Angeles where Prabhupada gives an easy method to conquer Maya! Just by chanting Hare Krishna Mantra loudly one will get the strength to conquer Maya!”
pamho agtACBSP that’s true – the more we remember Krishna by constant chanting the stronger we get by our daily fighting with maya sukaya.
That’s why SRILA RUPA GOSVAMI told LORD GAURANGA MAHAPRABHU at Asvamedha Ghat in Prayaga: namo maha vadanyaya krsna prema pradayate
O most munificent incarnation! YOU are widely distributing pure love of krsna, the battle with maya keeps going until the end of our journey in this yantrarudhani mayaya body machine made by gunas and karmabhir bg.18.61.
Prabhupada: There is no need to say, “I cannot see God.” Here is God: the taste of water is God. Everyone drinks water, and when one tastes it he is perceiving God. Then why do you say, “I cannot see God”?
Think as God directs, and then gradually you’ll see Him. Simply remember this one instruction from Bhagavad-gita—raso ’ham apsu kaunteya prabhasmi sasi-suryayoh: “I am the taste of water; I am the shining illumination of the sun and moon.” Who has not seen the sunlight?
Who has not seen the moonlight? Who has not tasted water? Then why do you say, “I have not seen God”? If you simply practice this bhakti-yoga, as soon as you taste water and feel satisfied you will think, “Oh, here is Krishna.”
Immediately you will remember Krishna. As soon as you see the sunshine, you will remember, “Oh, here is Krishna.” As soon as you see the moonshine, you will remember, “Oh, here is Krishna.”
