"There is no difference between Krsna's body and Himself or between

His name and Himself. But as far as the conditioned soul is conce-

rned, one's name is different from one's body, from one's original

form and so on."

 

PURPORT(excerpt):There is no differenc between Krsna's body and His soul.

Krsna is simultaneously both soul and body. The distinction between body and

soul applies to conditioned souls. The body of the conditioned soul is

different from the soul, and the conditioned soul's name is different from

his body. One may be named Mr.John, but if we call for Mr.John, Mr.John may

never actually appear. However, if we utter the holy name of Krsna, Krsna is

immediately present on our tongue. In the Padma Purana Krsna says, `yatra

gayanti mad-bhkta tatra tisthami narada': "O Narada, I am present wherever

My devotees are chanting." When the devotees chant the holy name of Krsna-

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama

Rama, Hare Hare--LORD KRSNA is immediately present.
