By endeavoring to overcome anarthas, we can approach the platform of namabhasa. Even though we may still commit some offenses, we can work to gradually overcome all of them by continuously chanting the holy name. When we chant namabhasa, we accumulate stockpiles of pious credits. By accumulating those pious credits, we get bhakti-mukti-sukriti, which blesses us with the association of those who are serving the holy name. And association with advanced devotees is essential to our progress in chanting.
