Dear Sir,

I have read that the mantra Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya is recommended for beginners who may be committing many offenses, such as, not being steady in his or her observance of the regulative principles. The advice being that the Mahamantra accepts offenses while the Vasudevaya mantra ignores offenses and is therefore safer for the neophyte.

Thank you kindly,

Bhakta Steve
