By taking a little time to chant, either while you're sitting or you're standing, or even if you're walking, to repeat the mantra, you'll notice that it lifts the mind above the many thoughts about the past and the future. Often times, future is about worrying, past about lamentation, what I could have done. And when we chant the the mantra, then, by its very definition, Mantra, the the word tra comes from trayate, which means to deliver.

The mind gets delivered from the myriad worries, lamentations that are constantly churning within the mind, and by the power of the mantra, we can notice that we're transcendental to the mind. We're also transcendental to the body, and we're not really part of this world altogether. We're part of the spiritual world, and even from here, we can feel that connection to the spiritual world just through the mantra. So Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, who I described, the monk from 500 years ago, taught this as a process that anyone could take to doesn't matter where you're starting from, what your background is, if you sincerely chant the mantra the way a baby might cry out for its mother. When a baby cries for the mother, the mother hears the tone of the baby and knows, "oh, I better go quickly." And if we have that sincerity of purpose when we're chanting the mantra, then we'll also very quickly experience the results of our chanting.
