| "The process is how to think of Kṛṣṇa., man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ (BG 18.65). This is meditation. So this . . . by kīrtana it becomes very easy. If you chant Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra twenty-four hours like Haridāsa Ṭhākura . . . that is not possible. So as much as possible. Tīrtha-yaśasa. Kīrtana . . . this is also kīrtana. We are talking about Kṛṣṇa, reading about Kṛṣṇa, reading Kṛṣṇa's instruction in the Bhagavad-gītā or reading Kṛṣṇa's glories in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. They are all kīrtana. It is not that simply when we sing with musical instruments, that is kīrtana. No. Anything you talk about Kṛṣṇa, that is kīrtana."
