The sage Naradha emphasises the importance when he told Shri Vyasa that Chanting the Divine Names and reciting the hymns which enumerate the virtues of the Lord is the abiding purpose of doing austere penances, rituals, recitation of vedas etc.
इदं हि पुंसस्तपसः श्रुतस्य वा स्विष्टस्य सूक्तस्य च बुद्धिदत्तयोः ।
अविच्युतोर्थः कविभिर्निरूपितो यदुत्तमश्लोकगुणानुवर्णनम् ॥

यस्मिन्नयस्तमतिर्न याति नरकं स्वर्गोऽपि यच्चिन्तने
विप्तो यत्र निवेशितात्ममनसो ब्राह्मोऽपि लोकोऽल्पकः।।
मुक्तिं चेतसि यः स्थितोऽमलधियां पुंसां ददात्यव्ययः
किं चित्रं यदघं प्रयाति विलयं तत्राच्युते कीर्तिते।।
The man who fixes his mind on Vishnu goes not to hell ; he who meditates upon Him regards (even) heavenly enjoyments only as an impediment ; and he whose mind and soul are penetrated by Him, thinks little even of the world of Brahma ; for, when present in the minds of those with unsullied intellects, he confers upon them eternal freedom. What marvel, therefore, is it that the sins of one who, repeats the name of Achyuta should be wiped away!

Source: Teachings of The Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi
Disciple: "Is it of any use to be merely repeating His Name without intense devotion?"
Mother: "Whether you jump into water or are pushed into it, your cloth will get drenched. Is it not so? Meditate every day, as your mind is yet immature. Constant meditation will make the mind one-pointed. Discriminate always between the real and the unreal.
Whenever you find your mind drawn to any object, think of its transitoriness, and thus try to withdraw the mind back to the thought of God. A man was angling.
A bridal party was going along the road with music. But the angler's eye remained fixed on the float. The mind of a spiritual aspirant should be steadfast like that."
