Word for word
kīrtanera of chanting; aṅga part; śudhu just; nahe not; ḍhāka-ḍhola beating of drums; ādhunika modern; dhārāya as a custom; nahe not; kīrtanera-rola voice of kīrtana
Translation

It is not that saṅkīrtana, unitedly spreding the glories of the Lord’s Holy name, is limited to only the beating of drums. In that the sound of the kīrtana cannot be spread by other methods (printing press and book, radio, television, video, tape recordings, cinema, etc.)…

The daily newspapers are simply publishing all the material squabbles and bickerings. Replace that by publishing transcendental news and glorification from spiritual worlds and distribute all those news papers all over the universe.
