People are possessed by the most varied desires; therefore, You have distributed, thanks to Your mercy, many holy names. Whoever chants the holy name regardless of time or place, even while eating or sleeping, attains all perfections. You have invested every single holy name with all of Your power, but I am so unfortunate that I feel no attraction for Your holy names.
The following prayer for developing attraction to the holy name is found in Namastaka (5):
aghadamana-yasodanandanau nandasunoh
kamalanayana gopicandra vrndavanendrah
pranata-karuna-krishnav ity aneka-svarupe
tvayi mama ratir-uccair-vardhatam namadheya
O demon slayer Agha! Oh son of Yasoda! Oh son of Nanda! Oh You who have lotus eyes! Oh moon of the gopis! O Lord of Vrndavana! Oh mercy of those who abandon themselves to You! Oh Krishna! By Your Mercy You manifest Yourself in different forms. May my attachment to You increase more and more.
