<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Lecture on SB 6.2.9-10 -- Allahabad, January 15, 1971|Lecture on SB 6.2.9-10 -- Allahabad, January 15, 1971]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">
Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says that we can utilize these enemies, ''kāma'', ''krodha'', ''lobha''—lust, anger, greediness. They can be utilized also for Kṛṣṇa's service. ''Kāma'' means lusty. One should be so much lusty to serve Kṛṣṇa. Just like we become lusty to have our desired object, similarly, we should be lusty to work for Kṛṣṇa as a madman: "I must do it." That is the utilization of lustiness. ''Kāma'', ''krodha''.

''Krodha' bhakta-dveṣi-jane'' (''Prema''-''bhakti''-''candrikā''). One should be very much angry upon a person who is envious of the devotees. Yes. A pure devotee, ''satāṁ nindā'', a pure devotee who is trying to spread the holy name of God, if somebody becomes envious upon him, that person is a great offender. So another devotee should be very much angry upon such person. '''Krodha' bhakta-dveṣi-jane''. ''Bhakta-dveṣi'' means one who is envious of a pure devotee. And who is a pure devotee? Who is trying to spread the holy name of the Lord all over the world. ''Satāṁ nindā''. This is offense.

So a devotee can utilize all these elements—lustiness, anger, ''kāma'', ''krodha'', greediness, and ''moha''. Illusion also can be utilized. Just like illusion . . . Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, ''śūnyāyitaṁ jagat sarvaṁ govinda-viraheṇa me'' ([[Vanisource:CC Antya 20.39|CC Antya 20.39]]): "I see everything vacant, being separated from Govinda." So when one is bewildered, illusioned, that can be also there. You become bewildered, illusioned, being separated from Govinda. So the . . .

:''sarveṣām apy aghavatām''
:''idam eva suniṣkṛtam''
:''nāma-vyāharaṇaṁ viṣṇor''
:''yatas tad-viṣayā matiḥ''
:([[Vanisource:SB 6.2.9-10|SB 6.2.10]])

So by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa ''mantra'' one becomes free from sinful reaction. Not only that; he becomes very soon a devotee. ''Yatas tad-viṣayā matiḥ''. ''Yataḥ'' means simply by chanting. Here it is clearly stated, ''nāma-vyāharaṇam'', chanting of the holy name. ''Vyāharaṇam'' means chanting; ''nāma-vyāharaṇaṁ viṣṇoḥ'', "of Lord Viṣṇu." So not only he becomes free from all sinful reaction of his life, but ''yatas tad-viṣayā matiḥ'': his mind becomes fixed up in the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa.

So try to understand what is the result of chanting, simply by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa ''mantra''. Therefore Caitanya Mahāprabhu recommends, ''harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam'' ([[Vanisource:CC Adi 17.21|CC Adi 17.21]]). So without offense, without committing offense, if we regularly chant this Hare Kṛṣṇa ''mantra'', then we remain freed from all sinful reaction of life and our attachment for the Supreme Lord in devotional service increases. ''Yatas tad-viṣayā matiḥ''.

''Brahma-vādibhiḥ''. ''Brahma-vādī'' means those who are very much fond of Vedic rituals, performances, ''yajña''. There was an argument, conversation, with Haridāsa Ṭhākura and a ''brahmin'', The Haridāsa Ṭhākura says that offenseless chanting of this holy name of Lord, one not only becomes free, not only he becomes ''brahma-bhūta'', but his love of Godhead manifests. The dormant love of Godhead manifests, and automatically he's liberated.

So that ''brahmin'' protested that "Don't exaggerate your chanting in this way. One becomes liberated after performing so much austerities, penances, and you say simply by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa? This is too much exaggeration." So there was argument, and the argument increased, and there was cursing also, and Haridāsa Ṭhākura was a little bit agitated, and the ''brahmin'' became offender and he suffered. That incidence is described in the ''Caitanya-caritāmṛta''.
