One contact is enough — through the eyes, the ear, the skin. Then what will a whole life with the Name give?

"In any way you take this Name: you see it painted on a wall — your eyes take it; you hear it; you chant it; even by touch — if someone has written the syllables in sandal paste on their body, you feel Krishna."
A beginner's first fear is doing it wrong: wrong posture, wrong pronunciation, thoughts scattering, and it seems you must grow up to the Name first. Śrī Prem Prayojan Prabhu answers unexpectedly — he lists how the Name can reach you at all. The eyes, if you saw it painted on a wall. The ears, if you heard it. The tongue, if you said it. And even the skin: someone writes the syllables of the Name in sandal paste on their body, and you feel Krishna by touch. Not one of these routes asks whether you are qualified. Then comes the question all this was leading to: kim uta — what more? If one contact is enough, what will a person receive who calls that Name all his life and with love? It cannot be put into words.
Start with whichever sense you have — the Name will reach you.
