sei ta' sumedhÄ, Ära kubuddhi saá¹sÄra
sarva-yajña haite kṛṣṇa-nÄma-yajña sÄra
sei - he; ta' - certainly; su-medhÄ - intelligent; Ära - others; ku-buddhi - poor understanding; saá¹sÄra - in the material world; sarva-yajña haite - than all other sacrifices; kṛṣṇa-nÄma - of chanting the name of Lord Kṛṣṇa; yajña - the sacrifice; sÄra - the best.
Such a person is truly intelligent, whereas others, who have but a poor fund of knowledge, must endure the cycle of repeated birth and death. Of all sacrificial performances, the chanting of the Lord’s holy name is the most sublime.
Lord ÅšrÄ« Caitanya MahÄprabhu is the father and inaugurator of the saá¹…kÄ«rtana movement. One who worships Him by sacrificing his life, money, intelligence and words for the saá¹…kÄ«rtana movement is recognized by the Lord and endowed with His blessings. All others may be said to be foolish, for of all sacrifices in which a man may apply his energy, a sacrifice made for the saá¹…kÄ«rtana movement is the most glorious.
