"When a student interpreted the glories of the holy name as a prayer

of exaggeration,Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, greatly unhappy, immediat-

ely warned everyone not to see the student's face henceforward."

 

PURPORT(excerpt): The holy name is identical with the Supreme Personality of

Godhead. Therefore one who distinguishes between the Lord and His name is

called a pasandi, or nonbeliever, an atheistic demon. Glorification of the

holy name is glorification of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. One should

never attempt to distinguish between the Lord and His name or interpret the

glories of the holy name as mere exaggerations.
