O Jaimini, anybody who smells the Tulasi leaf which has emanated from Lord Sri Visnu, whatever sins he has in his body are all destroyed. (Padma Purana, Kriya Yogasara 11.135)
If a sinful person leaving his body has a Tulasi leaf in his mouth, he goes to the abode of Lord Sri Visnu. I say this is truth. (Padma Purana, Brahma Khanda 22.7)
Anybody who has a Tulasi wood necklace around his neck, even if he is unclean or performs many bad activities, he is taken with full respect to the abode of Lord Sri Hari. (Padma Purana, Brahma Khanda 22.10)
After offering a Tulasi necklace to Lord Sri Kesava, if someone wears it with devotion, for that person there are no more sins. (Padma Purana, Brahma Khanda 22.17)
Anybody who eats a Tulasi leaf, all of his sins are removed and he becomes meritorious. All sins within his body are removed at once. Anyone who wears a Tulasi wood necklace, no sins can reside in his body. This is exactly true, I say to you. (Padma Purana, Kriya Yogasara 24.26,27)
