“In the beginning of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra, we first address the internal energy of Krsna, Hare. Thus we say, ‘O Radharani! O Hare! O energy of the Lord!’ When we address someone in this way, they usually say, ‘Yes, what do you want?’ The answer is: ‘Please engage me in Your service.’ This should be our prayer.” ( Teachings of Lord Kapila, page 32 )
