The power of praying to Krishna

 

"A single obeisance to Krishna is equal in merit to performing ten Ashvamedha yajnas properly; except that the merit accruing from the performance of yajnas wanes and then, one returns to this world by rebirth. But the one who chants the holy name and bows to Krishna even once is liberated from the cycle of birth and death! "

These are the words of Bhishma to Yudhishthira.
