Guest guest Report post Posted June 26, 2003 srila prabhupada says that mahamantra does not lose his power if we do not know the meaning.. because a mantra is krishna, is the deity in form of a sound and it has a reality, an existence in itself even if we do not understand of course knowing is recommended to be more convinced in our practice krsna is the supreme personality of godhead the sound of his name is the supreme personality of godhead his statue or painting is the supreme personality of godhead his name written in devanagari is the supreme personality of godhead Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
