Sarveṣām api yajñānāṁ lakṣaṇāni vratāni ca Tīrtha-snānāni sarvāṇi tapāṁsy anaśanāni caVeda-pāṭha-sahasrāṇi prādakṣiṇyaṁ bhuvaḥ śataṁKṛṣṇa-nāma-japasyāsya kalāṁ nārhati ṣoḍaśīm (From: Bhagavan-nāma-māhātmya-saṁgraha) All the rituals and fastings associated with a Vedic sacrifice, all the bathing in the holy places around the world, all the penances and fastings of this world, thousands of recitals of Vedic literature, and hundreds of circumambulations of the entire surface of the earth, cannot match even a sixteenth portion of the merit acquired by chanting the holy name of Krishna.

43. “For those who do not have pious activities, their faith in maha-prasada, in Sri Govinda, in the Holy Name and in the Vaisnava is never born.This material body is full of ignorance, and the senses are our deadly enemies, because they throw us into the ocean of material sense enjoyment. The tongue is the most voracious and verily wicked; it is very difficult to conquer the tongue in this world.Lord Krsna is very merciful. Just to control the tongue He has given us the remnants of His own food! Now please eat these nectarianprasadam while singing the glories of Sri Sri Radha and Krsna, and in love call out ‘Caitanya! Nitai!’ “
