Mukharvinda Prabhu was telling us, during our program at 12 noon, about an engineering principle: that if you're trying to solve a problem and it's not easily solved, you have to go back and look at the root. It's called the RCA- root cause analysis. So, Kṛṣṇa consciousness is a root cause analysis, and the root cause of all problems, all confusions, and complexities has to do with forgetting Kṛṣṇa. And so, that's why chanting japa feels like such a relief, because most of our lives are moving from one place to another, trying to solve a problem, and as soon as we solve one problem, if we ever do, then another one comes, or maybe a multiple of the first ones, like a hydra.

But when we go to the RCA and we take the advice of the śāstra, which is, "Always remember Kṛṣṇa, never forget Kṛṣṇa," and then to the very clear philosophy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, which is, "Kṛṣṇa is fully present in his name," also, of course, the philosophy of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam—āpannaḥ saṁsṛtiṁ ghorāṁ, Kṛṣṇa and His name are non-different—then we naturally feel happy to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. What's more, if we're trying to find the solution to a problem and we can't find it, better chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. And if we feel that life is overwhelming us, better chant Hare Kṛṣṇa.

So, thank you for being among the sumedhasah, as mentioned by Karabhajana Muni in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. Those who take to this chanting are extremely intelligent, because they've figured out the RCA.
