Prabhupāda: So, how do you feeling about chanting?
Allen Ginsberg: I have been chanting steadily all along now although I enjoy it more and more.
Prabhupāda: That's all right.
Allen Ginsberg: Lately, Peter and I have been chanting together on stages, and lately we have been singing Rāghupati Rāghava Rājarāma. Is that part of your canon also?
Prabhupāda: No. There is no harm, but this chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is recommended in the scripture.
Allen Ginsberg: The Hare Kṛṣṇa is the most pleasing of the chanting as far as I am concerned. Do we want to do that continuously, for as a complete?
Prabhupāda: That's nice.
Allen Ginsberg: Do you want to do that continuously or do you want any other like Gopāla or...
Prabhupāda: I think this Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra should be chanted.
Allen Ginsberg: You see, we have two and a half hours.
Prabhupāda: Huh?
Devotee: It'll be lecturing too though.
Allen Ginsberg: Yes.
Prabhupāda: I think in the beginning we should have kīrtana.
Allen Ginsberg: Yes.
Prabhupāda: And at the end we should have kīrtana. And in the middle we can speak, you can speak about Kṛṣṇa Consciousness.
Allen Ginsberg: I think you'd better speak because you're more eloquent on it and also you understand in the language...
Prabhupāda: I'll speak and you'll also speak.
