Srila Gurudev has stated, "......you should go through and read the books yourselves. Take the nectar and the essence of the books. Then your preaching will be so high, and everyone will be attracted and energetic. Try to participate in nagara-sankirtan, harinama, and namahatta, as Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura did. This is not just for human beings. The grass, creepers, animals and trees, as well as the atoms in the air and water, will all hear the holy names, knowingly or unknowingly, and be liberated......Nagara Sankirtana should be performed for every living entity. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu came and gave this best process to the world. If you throw any stone in a pond, so many ripples will form around it, one after another, and they will touch all points on the banks....This very powerful sound vibration of the holy name will also go and touch the entire world-even Vaikuntha and Goloka Vrndavana...it will purify everything, whether you are aware of it or not.
Sriman Mahaprabhu knew this, and that is why He brought the holy name. So you should try to do sankirtana. If you chant this sankirtana, softly or loudly, Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare/ Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare, it will purify the whole world. It may reach lakhs and lakhs of worlds. It is very powerful; so try to realize these facts.
If you are chanting, or you are discussing hari katha anywhere, the vibration goes all over the world. This is called kirtan. Kirtana is not only performed with mrdanga and karatalas. Discussion of hari katha is the most powerful kirtana......
....have mercy on all jivas, all living entities. What is that mercy? People are suffering so much by forgetting Krsna. We must be merciful and tell them, "Oh, you should chant and remember Krsna, and be happy forever."
