The Art of Mantra Meditation Series is a compilation of short video talks given by HG Amitasana Dasa [ISKCON Bangalore] on the efficiency and simplicity of chanting Hare Krishna mantra in this age.
Srila Prabhupada: Just like we have asked our students to finish sixteen rounds chanting minimum. Sixteen rounds is nothing. In Vrndavana there are many devotees, they chant 120 rounds. Like that. So sixteen rounds is the minimum.
Because I know in the Western countries it is difficult job to finish sixty-four rounds or 120 rounds, like that. Minimum sixteen rounds. That must be finished. Tat-tat-karma-pravartanat.
This is the direction. Observing the regulative principles. In this way, we must be abiding by the direction of the spiritual master and the sastra. Then rest assured. Success if guaranteed.
The Nectar of Devotion
Vrindavana, October 20, 1972
I suggest prabhus, you read two books (if you can get hold of them) as without both sides of any story or all the facts then we are not truly informed citizens. The books are:
1. Krsnalingita-vigraha &
2. Encountering the Krsnalingita-vigraha.
However please read them with an open Vaisnava mind and not some closed book mentality. That mentality is “I am right and everyone else is wrong.”
