Three stages of acceptance of the name

 

 

 

"One who chants the holy name even once is considered a

 

Vaisnava devotee, and the householders should be very attentive to

 

respect such a person. But the devotee who constantly chants

 

Krsna's name is even a better Vaisnava, for he is endowed with all

 

good qualities. The most advanced Vaisnava of all is he who

 

inspires others who see him to immediately chant the Lord's name.

 

When he chants the name even once, attraction to rendering eternal

 

devotional service to the Supreme Lord is irrevocably established.

 

Kindly tell Me how the nondevotees can be made to accept the

 

chanting of the holy name of Krsna."
