Those who wish, therefore, to free themselves from material slavery should devote themselves to the method of chanting and glorifying the name, fame, form and pastimes of the Supreme Personality of God, at whose feet are all the sacred places. One cannot get the right benefits with other methods such as pious activities, speculative knowledge and mystical yoga meditation, because even after following these methods one re-engages in self-interested activities, not being able to control one’s contaminated mind from the basic influences of nature, namely passion and ignorance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, in the Uttar Khanda of the Padma-Purana it is written:<\/span><\/p>\n

sakrd-uccaritam yena<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

harir ity aksara-dvayam<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

baddhah parikaras-tena<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

moksaya gamanam prati<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

He who has pronounced the name of Hari even once easily acquires the firm determination to achieve liberation.<\/span><\/p>\n
