Our present era, known as the Kali Yuga, is the most degraded of all ages. It an age of degeneracy, ignorance, conflict and adharma (the opposite of Dharma). Despite the harsh conditions of our present age, however, Lord Sriman Narayana has mercifully provided us with several sure means by which we can still achieve spiritual liberation. Among these is reciting the Vedic mantra:
Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
This important mantra is revealed in the Kali Santarana Upanishad. In this unprecedented livestream special, Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya will comment on the entire Kali Santarana Upanishad.
“At the end of the Dvapara [Yuga] Narada went to Brahma and addressed him thus; ‘O Lord, how shall I, roaming over the earth be able to overcome the effects of Kali [Yuga]?’ Brahma replied thus; ‘You have asked well. Listen to that which all the Vedas keep secret and hidden, through which one may cross the ocean of mundane existence (samsara) during Kali [Yuga]. It is through the mere recitation of the names of the Primeval Personality of Godhead - Lord NARAYANA, that one transcends the evil effects of the Kali Yuga.’ Narada asked again: ‘What are those names?’ Brahma (Hiranyagarbha) replied: ‘Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare’.” (Kali Santarana Upanishad, 1)
“’These sixteen names destroy the negative effects of Kali. No better means (upaya) than this is to be had in all the Vedas. These sixteen names destroy the 16 envelopments (kala) in which the jiva is enveloped (avarana). Then, like the Sun which shines forth once the clouds are dispersed, Parabrahman alone radiates forth’." (Kali Santarana Upanishad, 2)
“Again Narada asked; ‘O Lord what are the regulations (vidhi) to be observed?’ Brahma replied: ‘There are no regulations. Whoever in a pure or impure state chants these names always, attains the same world (salokya), proximity to (samipya), the same form as (sarupya) or absorption into Brahman (sayujya). Whoever chants this mantra of sixteen names 35 million times is absolved of the sin of murdering a brahmana and that of murdering a hero. He is absolved of the sin of the theft of gold. He becomes purified from sexual misconduct. Having abandoned all Dharmas he is absolved from all sins. He becomes immediately liberated.’ This is the [Kali Santarana] Upanishad.” (Kali Santarana Upanishad, 3)
