Devotee: What also did help me was the book "The Art of Chanting". If I did understand correctly the names will bring realizations ,very individually. While I was always thinking that would we all get the same revelations?
Kadamba Kanana Swami: The Holy Name is non different from Krsna. Everyone is having his own unique relationship in service with Krsna. There are five principle relationship with Krsna, namely madhurya(conjugal), vatsalya(parental),sakhya (friendship), dasya(servitorship), santa (neutrality), we have any of these five relationship in common with many others. But within these five rasas every individual has his own unique relationship with Krsna. Some gopis wave the camara, other gopis make tambula and again other gopis are messengers. In this way some realizations we all have in common, realizing that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and that we are His eternal servant,. but then everyone serves Krsna in his own unique way.
