Hare Krishna

Krishna Conciousness is een grammofoonplaat, die je voor $3.25 kunt bestellen in New York City (10003) bij de iskcon Press, 26 Second Avenue.

De aanbeveling ervoor in het 15e nr. van Back to Godhead, Krishna's Amerikaanse Huisorgaan, is te subliem om te vertalen.

‘bliss - what was once only a word now becomes an experience. With hare krishna you transcend everything - even your body. This is real freedom.

bliss - wherever and whenever you want it. Try it and see. It's so easy even children do it.

the sounds of krishna consciousness are recorded by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami and his disciples. This is an invitation to take a trip to the World which lies beyond the senses.’

Bliss: gelukzaligheid. Zo maar, op de open markt, voor iedereen. Zo is het. De trip is er voor iedereen. Ben je niet benieuwd? Ik wel, al ben ik niemands

[p. 294]

discipel. Ik weet ook dat het zo is, de sounds van Hare Krishna, transcendentale community singing, natuurlijk werkt dat, maakt het je high, gelukkig, Vereend. Mensen zijn al ontroerd, wanneer ze versleten liedjes samenzingen.

zal nooit ophouden, zolang er mensen op deze aarde zijn die the Supreme Godhead kunnen bezingen.

‘Krishna Consciousness is the awakening to joy on a plane of experience far beyond the mundane or the physical - the sublime bliss of the pure spirit soul in a conscious ecstasy of love for the Perfect Object of Love, the Supreme Godhead, Sri Krishna. Kirtan means the praise of Krishna in song, dance, music and the taking of spiritual food. It is the mature status of the eternal living entity, the final pleasure of all pleasures which waits at the end of myriad quests through an ocean of births and deaths.

Kirtan is the sweet fruit of virtuous life, the drink from the nectar of true love, the joy ineffable.

Kirtan is practiced at all Radha Krishna Temples - in San Francisco at 518 Frederick Street - in Montreal at 3720 Park Avenue - in New York at 26 Second Avenue - and in Santa Fe at Box 25, Route 3, Seton Village. Why not come and bring whoever you love?’
