Chanting calms the mind, clarifies our thinking, brings unlimited happiness and auspiciousness, and purifies the consciousness, culminating in Krishna consciousness, or love of God. We can control our mind, instead of letting it control us. When the mind focuses on Hare Krishna mantra, we become fully energetic, confident, and blissful. Anxieties, worries, and unnecessary wavering are overcome. A peaceful self is the basis for a happy and productive life. By chanting Hare Krishna, we reap innumerable benefits.
