Hare Krishna Mahamantra - best Sacrifice!

Verse 1.12.34 (Kavitha Mji):
* Here, Maharaj Yudhistira wanted to do the horse sacrifices to wash away the sins accrued due to the Kurukshetra war.
* Such sacrifices were done for either beggeting children or for washing away sins. And the animals sacrificed used to get human form of life. That was the power of the brahmanas who performed such sacrifices.
* But in further days, it was exploited and animal sacrifice became prominent, So Krishna came as Buddha to stop all this.
* In Kaliyuga, so many sins can be committed intentionally and unintentionally too. If MY was doing this sacrifice to cleanse us himself of the sins of war, for us also in this day, sacrifice is required. And that sacrifice is simply meant to please Vishnu.
* Since in kaliyuga we cannot performa yajna (since lot of wealth is required, lack of strong brahmanas), but fortunately for us, Sri CM has given us the best form of kirtan, the chanting of the Hare Krishna Mahamanta. This sacrifice is the best in this age!
