I protest in this forum using Krsna as one`s username.how one was able to do it is beyond me.You see in the early year 2000, when I applied as a reactor in this forum, I tried using the name 'Krsna"as my username.That application was rejected, outright.why?

There are many people whose names (not only user names in Internet forums) are 'Krsna'. People keep various other names of God like "Gopal", "Ram", "Narayan" etc. I personally do not find anything wrong in having 'Krsna' as username. But this is my personal opinion and it is upto the admin to take decision.

 

But, if for some reason, it is thought that 'krsna' should not be allowed as username, then nobody should be allowed to have this username. If one person is allowed, then all should be allowed.

 

I cannot understand why your application was rejected. Is it possible that somebody had already been assigned this username? Or, may be that the earlier software rejected certain words (including 'krsna') as username but the new software does not? Or, may be some other reason.

krsna-nama cintamani akhila rasera khani

nitya-mukta suddha-rasa-moy

namera balai jata saba la'ye iha

hata tabe mora sukhera udoy

 

 

"The Holy Name of Lord Krsna is a cintamani jewel. It is a philosophers stone, a gold mine filled with the unlimited moods of loving exchange (rasa). It is the spring from which all nectar flows. It is eternally liberated. It is pure and sweet. When all impediments to the pure chanting of the Holy Name are taken away and destroyed, then my happiness will know its true awakening." :pray:

 

(Saranagati, Sri Nama-Mahatmya, tx-8)

 

This verse is sung by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura.

Is it not simply so that your application form may have been rejected due to the name Krsna already being registered? Dunno, just a thought.

 

I thought that might be the case but the joindate for Krsna is after melvin.

Look buddies, ghari and stonehearted.Yes, I`m a toublemaker.If that satisfies both of you.What I`m trying to imply here is that how come this reactor "krsna" was given by this forum the right to use Lord Caitanya`s name? In fact, Nimai Pandit is Krsna himself and yet scolded his devotees to stop calling him that name "krsna".Why?

The Holy Name is Everything

 

by

 

Srila Gour Govinda Swami Maharaja

 

ataeva näma mätra vaiñëavera dharma

näme prasphuöita haya rüpa, guëa, karma

 

Chanting the holy name is the prime religious activity

of a vaiñëava. From the holy name gradually blossom

the Lord’s form, qualities and pastimes.

 

krsna-näma cintämani anädi cinmaya

yei krsna, sei näma—eka-tattva haya

 

Lord Krishna’s name is like an eternal and transcendental

touchstone. Krishna and His name are identical;

They are one and the same absolute truth.

 

nämera smaraëa ära näma-sankirtana

ei mätra dharma jéva karibe pälana

 

This is the only dharma in Kali-yuga: chanting

the holy name and thinking of the holy name.

Only this. This is the one dharma the jivas in Kaliyuga

should perform. In all the Vedas it has been

said, harinama-sara, the holy name is the essence.

 

hare nama harer nama harer namaiva kevalam

kalau nasty eva nasty eva nasty eva gatir anyatha

 

In this age of quarrel and hypocrisy, the only

means of deliverance is the chanting of the Holy

Names of the Lord. There is no other way. There

is no other way. There is no other way.

 

Päibe paramä préti änanda apära —

 

by chanting this Holy name of Krishna:

 

hare krsna hare krsna, krsna krsna hare hare

hare räma hare räma, räma räma hare hare

 

you’ll get extreme pleasure, supreme pleasure.

veda punaù bale,

 

“yata mukti mahäjana

paravyome sadä kare näma-saàkértana

 

Again the Vedas say that all the liberated mahäjanas,

always chant Hare Krishna in the spiritual sky.

 

Yei krsna, sei nama — eka-tattva haya — there is no

difference between the name of Krishna and Krishna

Himself — ‘bhinnatvän näma-näminoù.

 

Cintamani means desire. Whatever you desire the name will

give you. Krsna-nama cintamani anadi cinmaya — the

holy name is spiritual, transcendental, and without

beginning or end — anadir adir govinda sarva-kara-akaranam.

 

There is no difference between the name

of Krishna and Krishna Himself, and especially in

Kali yuga ,Krishna has incarnated Himself in the form

of his holy name. No other incarnation is there in

Kali-yuga. He is näma-avatära.

 

kali-käle näma-rüpe krsna-avatära

näma haite haya sarva-jagat-nistära

 

In this Age of Kali, the holy name of the Lord, the

Hare Krishna mahä-mantra, is the incarnation of

Lord Krishna. Simply by chanting the holy name

one associates with the Lord directly. Anyone who

does this is certainly delivered.

 

näma vinu kali-käle nähi ära dharma

sarva-mantra-sära näma, ei çästra-marma

 

In this Age of Kali there is no religious principle

other than the chanting of the holy name, which

is the essence of all Vedic hymns. This is the purport

of all scriptures.

 

A vaisnava chants only one name. He has only

one dharma, which is hari-näma. If you chant

the holy name without offense — in other words,

the pure name — then the all-beautiful form of

Krishna, the transcendental pastimes of

Krishna, and the attributes of Krishna — everything

will be manifested to you.

 

Näme prasphuöita haya rüpa, guëa, karma.

 

The name is everything! The name is everything!:smash:
