melvin Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 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?

Avinash Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 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 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 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." (Saranagati, Sri Nama-Mahatmya, tx-8) This verse is sung by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahnava Nitai Das Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 There are no applications here, so I don't know what is being spoken of. You fill out the user form and the software automatically approves you. Also I don't recall anyone's name being rejected either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrsinghadev Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gHari Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Melvin has always been here to cause trouble. We should just disregard the nuisance. He hasn't a serious bone in his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melvin Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krsna Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 The name is everything! The name is everything! <HR style="COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message --> 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvin Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Sir, if you say Krsna is everything only confuses me more. Vasudeva is everything.I stand by to be corrected, Sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
