Hare Krishna

"Chant Hare Krishna and be happy" said the sign on the side of a mini-bus spotted in the CBD yesterday. It had never occurred to me before then that the Hare Krishnas chant their own name - although come to think of it, it is a while since I've seen then around. Of course, they're not actually chanting their own name - which is really something like the "Order of ..."; Hare Krishna is their popular name. (The chant is used to invoke the power/grace /enlightenment of the Lord Krishna.)
