Names of Shri Krishna

Vedas assert that Shri Krishna is The Supreme Brahm.

Vedas also proclaim that nothing about Him is finite. He has countless names, countless forms, countless lilas, countless attributes, countless lok and countless saints.

An attempt to enumerate His names is laughable.

Yet, there might be some sadhaks who want to deepen their roopdhayan of Hari Guru. For supporting those sadhaks several names of Shri Krishna are enumerated below. Shri Maharaj Ji uses these name of Shri Krishna in His lectures, and compositions.
