The tragedy of separation

Only four of His most intimate devotees knew He was leaving; the ordinary devotees did not know this would be His last night in Nabadwip. With His own hands He garlanded the necks of His devotees and appealed to them, «Always chant the Name of Krishna. Under no condition should you give up this Krishna-nam. And don’t do anything else. While working, eating, sleeping, or walking, day or night — in whatever you do — continuously take the Name of Krishna. Always talk about Krishna — nothing else. If you have any real attraction to Me, then don’t do anything without chanting the Name of Krishna.

«Cultivate Krishna consciousness. Krishna is the origin of us all. He is our father; we have come from Him. The son who shows no gratitude towards the father is sure to be punished birth after birth. Always chant these Names of the Lord:

hare krsna hare krsna, krsna krsna hare hare
hare rama hare rama, rama rama hare hare

«No other religious principle is required. Chant ‘Hare Krishna’. This is not an ordinary mantra, but this is the mahamantra, the greatest of all the great mantras, the very essence of all the mantras known to the world. Only take to this, always. No other prescription is to be followed.

«Remember your Lord, your home. This is a foreign land; you have nothing to aspire after here. Try always to go back home, back to Godhead.» In this way, the Lord spoke, and all His devotees intuitively came because it was Nimai Pandit’s last night in Nabadwip.
