Here is one very good reason to chant Hare Krsna maha mantra–Real Time Protection
Security companies are always trying to sell us their so called security sytems, which may or may not work. But their systems are very limited, whereas Krsna’s All Encompassing Protection Plan covers ALL nastry things which can happen in this world to His Devotees. And besides that, whose promise to deliver- are you more inclined to trust and believe?

Prabhupāda: There was a famine in India in 1942, big famine. I particularly inquired among the disciples of my Guru Mahārāja, and even the remote village, they said that “We have no difficulty.” No. And another, there was a havoc, earthquake, in sometime in 1933 or that… And one of our Godbrother, Mr. Munshi Chatterjee, when he heard that quarter is completely demolished, so he was in the office. He was thinking, “What shall I do by going home? There is no more home. Everything is…” Then he said, “Let me go and see.” And when he came there, only his house was left. Only his house. All house dismantled. The Only. Kaunteya pratijānīhi name bhaktaḥ praṇaśyati [Bg. 9.31]. That we have seen in many instances. Kṛṣṇa–bhakta is never vanquished.
Devotee: Yes. We were thinking that he was getting special protection from the Lord.
Prabhupāda: That is a fact. So be sincere, do your duty. You will never be in trouble. Never.
BG 18.78-Wherever there is Kṛṣṇa, the master of all mystics, and wherever there is Arjuna, the supreme archer, there will also certainly be opulence, victory, extraordinary power, and morality. That is my opinion.
BG 9.31–O son of Kuntī, declare it boldly that My devotee will never perish.”
And for yet another “layer” of protection, then install Salagram Silas in one’s home along with Tulsi devi. ..
1) Wherever Salagrama sila and Dwarka Silas sit together, Mukti also resides .
2) Where both Salagram and Dwarka silas sit together all classes of opulence increase unlimitedly.
3) Whoever touches a salagrama sila, adorned with chakras becomes free from all sins.
4) Any sila, although broken, cracked, split or broken asunder, is never inauspicious.
5) Both Laxsmi Devi and Lord Narayana reside in salagrama silas.
6) Varaha Dev Salagram gives material enjoyment and mukti.
7) Sudarshan Chakra Sila satisfies the aspirations of His devotees.
8) Sesa Ananta Sila has coils like a snake and is all auspicious.
9) Worship of Lord Narayana in a sila is more pleasing to Lord Narayana Himself than to His own deity in a temple.
10) By worshipping a salagram sila one benefit is equal to one agni hotra sacrifice and giving the entire world in charity.
11) If one serves a salagram sila he gets mukti even without giving any charity, doing any sacrifices study of the Vedas or going to tirthas.
12) In Kali yuga if a person worships a sila with faith , love, flowers, kirtan, and prayers, he will eternally enjoy sublime spiritual happiness.
13) Any pious activity done within a 24 mile radius is multiplied a million times.
14) Anyone who dies within 2 miles of where a sila is worshiped goes back to Vaikuntha.
