"So this merciful benediction was given by Lord Krsna, er, by Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, He is incarnation of Krsna. Krsna-varnam tvisakrsnam (SB 11.5.32). He is Krsna. Categorically, He's Krsna, or chanting Krsna. But by complexion He's akrsna. Tvisakrsnam. So He gave us this greatest benediction, that you simply chant Hare Krsna mantra and you get all knowledge. The greatest impediment of acquiring knowledge is congestion of our heart with dirty things. And Lord Caitanya says that if you chant without any offense very nicely, then your heart becomes cleansed of all dirty things. Ceto-darpana-marjanam bhava-maha-davagni-nirvapanam (CC Antya 20.12). And then you are liberated. Brahma-bhutah prasannatma na socati (BG 18.54)."
