Mantra

हरेर्नाम हरेर्नाम हरेर्नामैव केवलम्। कलौ नास्त्येव नास्त्येव नास्त्येव गतिरन्यथा॥

harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam / kalau nāsty eva nāsty eva nāsty eva gatir anyathā

"In this Age of Kali there is no other means, no other means, no other means for self-realization than chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name, chanting the holy name of Lord Hari" (Chaitanya-charitamrita, Adi 17.21).

Meaning

A verse from the Brihan-naradiya Purana that Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu cited as the foundation of His sankirtana movement. The threefold repetition, the Chaitanya-charitamrita explains, stresses that in this age chanting the holy name is not one of the paths but the only one.
