tvdegurudev
Lila from the Brahma Purana where Siva talks to Parvati, and Siva explains to her how the name Radha is the best of all names.
“A thousand names of Lord Visnu are equal to three names of Rama. Three names of Rama are equal to one name of Krsna. And a hundred names of Krsna are equal to one name of Radha.”
Even with all these names, God is only One. However, with His inconceivable potency He manifests all these forms.
God is always with His own potency, His sakti which is Srimati Radhika.
About the three very important potencies of Krsna: antaranga-sakti (internal potency), bahiranga-sakti (external potency), and tatastha-sakti (marginal potency).
Krsna has invested all His potency in His Holy Names in this age of Kali-yuga.
How to control our mind in this age: with abhyasa (constant practice) and vairagya (renunciation).
Sukadeva Gosvami explains how Sri Krsna chants the name of Srimati Radhika: playing “klim” sound on His flute.
