Cutting the knots of Material Existence...

Verse 1.2.15: Always thinking of Krishna will cut the knot of the chain of reactions. Actually, Srimad Bhagavatam very nicely explains the process of self-realization, as to how do we come out of the problems due to passion, ignorance and finally transcend the mode of goodness into spirituality.

How to come to mode of goodness, everybody is passionate. By listening SB, listening about the pastimes of Krishna, by constant remembrance of Krishna, slowly even for 5 to 10 minutes every day, slowly we will come to the mode of goodness. When we come to mode of goodness, we will be happy. But Krishna says that we should be just be there, we should aim for the spiritual world, ultimate service for Krishna. Liberation is an insignificant by-product of Bhakti. Sravanam and Kirtanam are most essential for this Bhakti process. All 9 processes of bhakti are important too.

Anything we do, we can do it for Krishna. Imagine we are greedy, just think of Krishna, we will lose all our greediness. Since where Krishna is there, there is no passion or ignorance.

It all depends on our chanting. Praying and chanting is our only way for spiritual progress.
