Editor's Notes
Satatam kirtayanto mam
In our present condition we are slaves to any whimsical thoughts, desires & appetites the mind may generate. We think something and immediately we want to do it. Hare Krishna mantra is a transcendental sound vibration with potency to liberate the mind from material conditioning. How can one escape the will to sin? By escaping the illusion that supports it—the illusion that the material body is the self.
1440 mins per day……………………..7 mins for GOD …………………. IS THAT TOO DEMANDING ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Actually it fits in this time limit……however, our daily schedule might be jam packed with mundane activities to include GOD in it!!!!
