When all other mantras are subdued by Kali, it is only the ‘Hare Rama..’ Mantra that can subdue the Kali and prevail over it.

Nomenclature – Mahamantra

 

A person can be acclaimed the most powerful only when he defeats the strongest opposition in the group.

 

When can a Mantra be called as a Mahamantra?  Only when it emerge stronger than  the strongest effects in the current age. 

 

In this age, numerous efforts have been taken by many a Mahatma to establish various Dharmas like Sthree Dharma, Grahasta Dharma, etc. and numerous paths to reach the Lord. Despite all such efforts, what stands unshaken till this day is undoubtedly 'lokayatham' or materialism! This is because 'Kali' subdues every other Dharma and Mantra and establishes itself above everything else.  Thus, Kali is undoubtedly the vilest and strongest in this age.

 

Thus when all other mantras are subdued by Kali, it is only the 'Hare Rama..' Mantra that can subdue the Kali and prevail over it.

 

Hence it has been aptly named as the 'Mahamantra'!

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
