Prabhupada, New York, July 22, 1966: This Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. This is transcendental sound vibration. This is transcendental sound vibration, and this will help us to cleanse the dust on the mirror of our mind. On the mind we have accumulated material dust. Just like on the Second Avenue, due to the constant traffic of motor car, there is always a creation of dusting over everything, similarly, by our manipulation of materialistic activities, there are some material dusts which are accumulated on the mind, and therefore we are unable to see things in true perspective.
So this process, this vibration of transcendental sound, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare, will cleanse the dust. And, as soon as the dust is cleared, then, as you can see on the mirror the nice face of yours, similarly we can see our real, I mean to say, constitutional position, “what I am.” And as soon as I understand that “I am not this body, I am spirit soul, and my symptom is consciousness,” and that consciousness, as it is purified by this process, the whole material miseries will be over.
Bhava-maha-davagni-nirvapanam. Ceto-darpana-marjanam [Cc. Antya 20.12]. In Sanskrit language, it is said… Lord Caitanya. Lord Caitanya’s picture you have seen on the showcase. He’s dancing, and chanting Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare. This sound vibration of Krishna, Hare, Rama, as soon as the mind is cleared off, then we’ll see our real position, and the immediate result is bhava-maha-davagni-nirvapanam. There is a fire always blazing over this material world. Everyone is trying to extinguish it, but it is not possible to extinguish this fire of material miseries unless we are situated in our pure consciousness of spiritual life. That is the whole thing.
