If you want to be happy, and you want calm and peace of mind and heart, and if you don’t want to die, then you should chant and remember the Supreme Personality of Godhead; He will save you, surely, because in Gītā He has promised: Those who are praying to Me, chanting My names, they cannot die. They will not die. I will save them from death and birth, sufferings and sorrows.
Kṛṣṇa has promised that anyone who is chanting, remembering, and doing devotional activities to Me—He will never be killed by anyone. Kṛṣṇa says, “How can anyone know who I am, when I am not visible by the material eyes or material senses? How?” Tattva darśana: Kṛṣṇa gives intelligence to know all these things. He will inspire us to go to a realized person who knows all these things.
Unconditionally we should try to surrender ourselves to the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and then He quickly will save us from all miseries. So, we should try to do it. He also said, you should do kīrtana and chant. Only the name of Kṛṣṇa is the way to be happy.
