Thank you everyone for joining the Hare Kṛṣṇa Dance Party. Today it is going on in over 1000 cities across the world, special celebration to give gratitude this weekend. The fact that we live in a universe that is perfectly ordered—so much so that we have "ologies," otherwise, we would not be able to make sense of anything unless there is some order in the universe—not complete randomness, that traces back to universal divine intelligence we call Kṛṣṇa. We are celebrating the fact that life is sacred. If we look within, we notice our consciousness; we notice that it is brilliant, that it is full of knowledge, that it is eternal. Every living being is part of the Supreme; we all emanate from the same source.

This chanting, which was brought to the world by the great Śrī Chaitanya Mahāprabhu 500 years ago, is a means of self-realisation. Sound vibration pervades the universe, and when we elevate the sound vibration in our life—what to speak of when we make divine sound by this prayer, "Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare/ Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare"—this is a universal prayer which means, "O my Lord, O energy of the Lord, please engage me in Your service." So, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommended for the present age the powerful method of chanting this mantra, especially in downtown San Francisco together with all our friends. This is a means for elevating the consciousness not just of those who are chanting, but anyone who hears. We are praying for the happiness of everyone in the world by realizing that we all come from the same divine source. ( excerpt from the address, starts @ 1:36 )
