The potencies of the names of God are mentioned in practically every religious text in some form or another. Lord Krishna has been portrayed as the all-encompassing Supreme Being in Vedic literature, and His different names have been compared to the Lord Himself. In other words, His names have the same power as Krishna. Many learned spiritual gurus believe that God’s names are more powerful than God since they are easily accessible to everyone. For this reason, scriptures such as the Bhagavad Gita recommend Japa – or the earnest, contemplative, continuous chanting of Lord Krishna’s holy names – as a spiritual practice that can assist seekers in liberating themselves and reaching the Supreme Person.The 108 names of Lord Krishna are listed below. Reading these names can provide insight into the Lord’s varied attributes and abilities. So here goes:
