After making this comment, the very next thing I read was a message from KC quotes of the day, "The process of chanting the holy name of the Lord is so powerful that by this chanting even householders can very easily gain the ultimate result achieved by persons in the renounced order."
Srimad Bhagavatam 7.15.74.
Right in line with what Deena Bandhu Prabhu said.
