Spiritual Practice
Devotional service to the Lord is very simple: one should always
engage in the service of the Lord, should eat the remnants of
foodstuffs offered to the Deity, smell the flowers offered to the
lotus feet of the Lord, see the places where the Lord had His tran-
scendental pastimes, read of the different activities of the Lord,
His reciprocation of love with His devotees, chant always the
transcendental vibration Hare Kåñëa, Hare Kåñëa, Kåñëa Kåñëa,
Hare Hare / Hare Räma, Hare Räma, Räma Räma, Hare Hare,
and observe the fasting days commemorating the appearances and
disappearances of the Lord and His devotees. By following such a
process one becomes completely detached from all material
activities. - BG 14:27, purport -
