Shree Raam's Name: Beverage

There is a very popular Vaishnavite song the English language version  of which begins as follows: 

Shree Vittalaa's Name is the Cow's Ghee, Shree Krishnaa's Name is Sugar in the Sweet Beverage that is Shree Raam's Name. 

This song was written by Shree Purandaradaasaa.

Shree Purandaradaasa

Sweet beverage

My beloved mother's maternal uncle used to sing this song often. He was married to my mother's elder sister.

Let me share a Utube video of the song here.

Such examples that explain the glories of Shree Hari's Names in simple terms. These should be taught to children from very young age.

I remember our playing with dolls of Vaishnavite Deities during my childhood days. I think that ISKCON encourages and sells such dolls. I think that children are encouraged to play with such dolls in their Gurukulaa Schools all over the world. 

Krishnam Vande Jagad Gurum🙏.
