Verse: Srimad Bhagavatam – 7.8.1
Where: Karuna Bhavan, Scotland, U.K, May 8, 2008
Essence: “In the previous ages, it was very easy to distinguish between devotees and demons. The Lord would kill these demons with His gadha and sudarsana cakra. But in this age of Kali these demons live within our hearts, and the Lord destroys them by employing the most powerful weapon in the form of the chanting of His holy names.”
