Radhanath Swami on Power of the Holy Name

We may have so many justifications and excuses for not practicing devotion. We may think that I am born in the western world, or I live in a very materialistic society, I have a family, I have a wife, I have children and so many different excuses we may have. But in the history of mankind we have seen that even though a person may be very fallen if he takes shelter of God then he attains pure love of God. Every single one of us can achieve the ultimate destination - not by our power but by the power of God’s mercy, by the power of His name. God’s name is so powerful and attractive that irrespective of whatever we have been in all our previous lives or in this life, it can purify us. So simply hear about Him from sincere devotees and chant the holy names.
