In the Kali-yuga, one can satisfy and worship the Lord simply by chanting His holy name:
Çré Madhväcärya has brought our attention to this quotation from the Näräyaëa-saàhitä:
dväparéyair janair viñëuù
païcarätraiç tu kevalaiù
kalau tu näma-mätreëa
püjyate bhagavän hariù
"In the Dväpara-yuga one could satisfy Kåñëa or Viñëu only by worshiping opulently according to the päïcarätriké system, but in the age of Kali one can satisfy and worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead Hari simply by chanting His holy name."
Çré Caitanya-caritämåta Antya-lélä 7.12
In this age of Kali, real religious propapada should induce people to chant the Hare Kåñëa mahä-mantra.... Çréla Bhaktisiddhänta Sarasvaté Öhäkura comments in this regard in his Anubhäñya, wherein he quotes a verse from Näräyaëa-saàhitä:
dväparéyair janair viñëuù
païcarätraiç tu kevalaiù
kalau tu näma-mätreëa
püjyate bhagavän hariù
"In Dväpara-yuga, devotees of Lord Viñëu and Kåñëa rendered devotional service according to the principles of päïcarätrika. In this age of Kali, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is worshiped simply by the chanting of His holy names."
Çré Caitanya-caritämåta Madhya-lélä 25.9
Learned scholars in the age of Kali worship Lord Kåñëa through näma-saìkértana:
"By performing the sacrifice of congregational chanting of the holy name, learned scholars in the age of Kali worship Lord Kåñëa..."
Stava-mälä of Rüpa Gosvämé
[cited: Çré Caitanya-caritämåta Ädi-lélä 3.58]
In Kali-yuga, the process of worshiping Kåñëa is the sacrifice of chanting the holy name:
[Lord Caitanya to Svarüpa Dämodara & Rämänanda Räya]: "In this age of Kali, the process of worshiping Kåñëa is to perform sacrifice by chanting the holy name of the Lord. One who does so is certainly very intelligent, and he attains shelter at the lotus feet of Kåñëa."
