Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"Prabhupāda: So if you have got some name which actually refers to God, then it is all right. But if you have got something, name, which refers to dog, then it is wrong.
Reporter: Is this something that your followers can be aware of constantly? Prabhupāda: So we are recommending to chant the name of Kṛṣṇa. The Kṛṣṇa means all-attractive. Reporter: It means . . .? Prabhupāda: All-attractive. So God is all-attractive. Otherwise how He can be God? God cannot be attractive for you and not for me. This is very accurate word. God has no name. That's a fact. But we coin His name according to His dealings. Just like we call God Yaśodā-nandana. So God came as the son of Yaśodā, therefore we call Him Yaśodā-nandana, "Son of Yaśodā." So you can take it as name. Similarly, God's name the total summarization—"All-attractive." That is perfect name." |
