Chant Lord Keśava’s Glories in Kali

“ ‘Whatever is achieved by meditation in Satya-yuga, by the performance of yajña in Tretā-yuga or by the worship of Kṛṣṇa’s lotus feet in Dvāpara-yuga is also obtained in the Age of Kali simply by chanting the glories of Lord Keśava.’

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya 20.346, translation
