What is the etymological meaning of the Name “Krishna”?

Etymology of the Name “Krishna”: The word “Krish” represents the fascinating aspect of the Lord's existence, and “na” signifies spiritual pleasure.

When the verb “Krish” is added to the affix “na,” we obtain Krishna, which indicates the Absolute Truth.

If we analyze the semantic origin of the word “Krishna,” we discover that “na” means to put an end to the cycle of birth and death, and that “Krish” means “existence.” Krishna is therefore the absolute totality of existence. “Krish” also means “attraction” and “na,” “bliss.”

“Krish” became “Christ” in Greek.

The Name “Krishna” means “the Infinitely Fascinating” and can only be applied to God, the Supreme and Sovereign Person.

In truth, God has no name, but we give Him names related to His qualities, His excellences, His glories. If a man is very handsome, we call him “charming,” if he is very intelligent, we call him “wise.”

Thus, a name is given according to the quality of the person. God being infinitely fascinating, the name Krishna can only be applied to Him.

Krishna means “Infinitely Fascinating,” which includes everything, for He is Unlimited and Absolute.

Krishna is God, the Supreme Person in His Personal, Primordial, Original, Infinite, and Absolute form.

How to obtain real, lasting, and perfect peace? How can it be achieved?

Real, lasting, and perfect peace can only be attained through the complete development of Krishna consciousness, the consciousness of God, the Supreme Person.

Embodied souls, conditioned by matter and trapped in the clutches of illusory energy, all ardently desire to find peace in this world, but they are unaware of the conditions required to obtain it.

In truth, the secret lies in knowing God as the beneficiary of all human endeavors.

Human beings must sacrifice everything in the absolute service of the Supreme Lord, for all the galaxies, the planets that comprise them, and their inhabitants belong to Him. No one is equal to Him or surpasses Him; He is the One Absolute without a second. The Lord reigns over material nature, and all conditioned souls are subject to the yoke and rigor of the laws of material nature.

Unless these fundamental truths are known, there can be no peace in this world, either individually or collectively. Perfect peace is attained only through the complete development of God consciousness.
