Swami says in a Wonderful Discourse on 25th August 1999, that "The word (Krishna) has three meanings:
(1) "Krushathi-ithi Krishna" that is, "The One who ploughs is called Krishna." The field here symbolizes the heart. The heart should be cleared of weeds (evil qualities). It should be filled with love. The seeds of the Lord's name should be sown in it. Krishna is the one who inspires the devotee to do all this. (2) "Karshathi-ithi Krishna" that is, "The One who attracts is called Krishna." Krishna has the supreme power of attraction. By His words, His sport, His music and all His actions, He attracts all people. This power of Divine attraction is present in everyone. Hence, everyone is potentially Krishna. (3) "Kushyathi-ithi Krishna" that is, "The One who imparts bliss is called Krishna." Everyone seeks happiness. The Divine, who is the embodiment of happiness, is in you. God wants you to be happy, but you do not realize it. Try to recognize the source of bliss within you. It is not the true nature of man to be unhappy. When anyone is sad, people around him are concerned about him. You should always be happy, because you are the embodiment of the Atma. Never give way to worry. Sai Ram
