The Hare Krsna maha mantra still has it's potency

[Guest guest]

The Krsna consciousness movement is not a sentimental religious movement; it

is a movement for the reformation of all the anomalies of human society. If

people take to it seriously, discharging this duty scientifically, as

ordered by Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the world will see peace and prosperity

instead of being confused and hopeless under useless governments. There are

always rogues and thieves in human society, and as soon as a weak government

is unable to execute its duties, these rogues and thieves come out to do

their business. Thus the entire society becomes a hell, unfit for gentlemen

to live in. There is an immediate need for a good government - a government

by the people, with Krsna consciousness. Unless the masses of people become

Krsna conscious, they cannot be good men. The Krsna consciousness movement

that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu started by chanting the Hare Krsna maha-mantra

still has its potency. Therefore people should understand it seriously and

scientifically and spread it all over the world.
