some glories of the Holy Name
nama-chintamanih krsnas-chaitanya-rasa-vigrahah
purnah suddho nitya-mukto bhinnatvan-nama-naminoh
As the Lord and His Name are one and the same, the Name is Krsna Himself;
eternally pure, beyond the mundane, Life, Joy and Love, full and complete,
sweet Holy Name, wish-fulflling Gem Divine.
[Padma-Purana]
kaler dosa-nidhe rajannasti hy eko mahan gunah
kirttanad eva krsnasya mukta-bandhah param vrajet
O King, this age of Kali is a reservoir of inauspiciousness, yet it
has but one glorious quality: in this age, simply by chanting the
Holy Name of Sr Krsna, the soul is freed from the bondage of Maya and attains to the shelter of the Lord Himself.
Srimad-Bhagavatam 12.3.51]
