MAHA MANTRA is YUGA DHARMA

[Guest guest]

"As far as distinguishing the Lord’s holy name from the names of the

demigods, the revealed scriptures disclose (Bg. 10.41) that all

extraordinarily powerful beings are but parts and parcels of the supreme

energetic, Lord KŠa. Except for the Lord Himself, everyone is subordinate;

no one is independent of the Lord. Since no one is more powerful than or

equal to the energy of the Supreme Lord, no one’s name can be as powerful as

that of the Lord. By chanting the Lord’s holy name, one can derive all the

stipulated energy synchronized from all sources. Therefore, one should not

equalize the supreme holy name of the Lord with any other name. Brahm€, ®iva

or any other powerful god can never be equal to the Supreme Lord ViŠu. The

powerful holy name of the Lord can certainly deliver one from sinful

effects, but one who desires to utilize this transcendental potency of the

holy name of the Lord in one’s sinister activities is the most degraded

person in the world. Such persons are never excused by he Lord or by any

agent of the Lord. One should, therefore, utilize one’s life in glorifying

the Lord by all means, without any offense."
