Thought of the day -- By Swami Gaurangapada

"But if one only chants, with some slight faith, the holy names of Lord Nityananda and Gauranga, very quickly he or she is cleansed of all offenses. Since in the chanting of the names of Nityananda and Gauranga there is no consideration of offenses, one will very quickly come to the stage of love of God, simply by chanting Their names and tears of pure love for Krishna will flow from the eyes." (Shrila Krishnadasa Kaviraja Goswami in Cc Adi 8.31).

“Simply by chanting or hearing the Holy Name of Lord Nityananda, the sinful inclinations in the hearts of all the living entities in the universe are permanently destroyed and their inherent purity is automatically awakened. On chanting or hearing the Holy Name of Lord Nityananda, even the merchants, degraded, fallen and foolish people are purified and immediately become realized in the Absolute Truth and great devotees of the Lord." (SBSSTP in Shri Chaitanya Bhagavata, Madhya-Khanda 3.134 purport).
