Divine Abode

Different ages have different prescribed methods for self-realization. In this Age of Kali (the current age of quarrel and hypocrisy), the authorized method is the congregational chanting of the Holy Names of the Lord.

In this Age of Kali there is no other means, no other means, no other means for self-realization than chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name of Lord Hari.
