chanting of the Navakara Mantra that is like a ship to cross over the ocean of mundane life. This is the best of lustres; it is the real path of svarga and liberation; it is like the wind of wind deluge in the annihilation of Durgati. It is constantly and repeatedly studied, chanted, heard, pondered over by noble persons to cause a tradition of happiness and benedictions. Treasure of all the three worlds is easy to be had, the eight Siddhis are easy to be acquired, yet the attainment of the Navakara is difficult. Therefore, O Atman! look upon the Navakara as a unique refuge and memorise it with your mind concentrated on it with extreme veneration and grand respect.
