Manohara, “Who attracts the mind” – Indradyumna Swami Nectar

“When we come to each of these individual places, we absorb ourselves in all of those specific characteristics of that holy place. Krishna is called Manohara, one of His unlimited names. Manohara means ‘Who attracts the mind’. We control our mind by fixing it on hearing in Vrindavan of the beautiful pastimes of the Lord. This is the best way to control the mind. One day our minds and our hearts will be spontaneously attracted to all these wonderful pastimes of Krishna.”
