Sailing and chanting

I've sailed a few times and noticed that unlike the noise, smell and vibrations of motor boating, sailing can be a lot more serene. It makes me realize how easy it is to cross over the nescience of the material world through chanting rather than thinking technology, machinery, and computers can save us. Samasrita ye pada-pallavam-plavam...(Srimad Bhagavatam 10.14.58)
