Today's excerpt from: 'Sri Sri Prapanna-jivanamritam'

Of everything favourable, Hari-sankirttana performed by souls surrendered unto the lotus feet of Lord Hari is paramount --
"May the Sri Krishna Sankirttana be all-victorious in its pristine glory! This congregational chanting of the Holy Names of the Lord cleanses the looking-glass of consciousness, extinguishes the raging forest fire of material existence, and spreads the benediction moon-rays that cause the lotus of the heart to bloom. This chanting is the life and soul of divine consorthood. Expanding the ocean of pure ecstasy, it is the flavour of full nectar at every moment, bathing and cooling the entire self."
-- the Supreme Lord Sri Caitanyachandra
