Was that Hari, Hara, or Hare ?

Hari means “Shining One”, and also “thief”. The Gods steal or take away our illusions, burdens and ultimately they steal our hearts. Hara also comes from a

root word meaning Joy.

Hari refers to Lord Vishnu (part of the Hindu trinity) and Krishna because Krishna is an incarnation of Vishnu.

Hare is the vocative form of Hari, and refers to both Krishna and Ram as in the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. Both Ram and Krishna were incarnations of Lord Vishnu. Hara refers to Lord Shiva Hara is also the feminine aspect of God (Ishvara), known as Shakti Hara is a name of Krishna's consort, known as Radharani or Radhe

Don’t worrry over which is who, when we are chanting the feeling of all of these “HA” vibrations is from the sacral chakra (lower abdomen energy center). You can feel their effect regardless of whether we understand the meaning.

all beings. He is not limited by space, time or substance, Vishnu supports, sustains and governs the Universe and originates and develops all elements within.

101. Songs to Shiva

102. Shiva means “Auspicious One”

103. He is described as the one who is completely pure, untainted by the world of form and temptations, uttering

his name can bring salvation from the cycle of reincarnation. 104. He is one of the three Gods of the Hindu trinity: Brahman, Vishnu

and Shiva. 105. Shiva is responsible for the creation and desolution of the universe. 106. He is the eternal yogi, blissfully unaffected by maya (illusion). 107. He destroys our attachments and delusions and brings our

liberation. 108. 109. Third Eye: Shiva is often depicted with a third eye with which he

burned Desire (Kāma) to ashes. 110. 111. The Ganga river flows from the matted hair of Shiva. Thus Shiva is

called Gangādhara ("Bearer of the river Gangā") The Ganga, considered the most sacred of all rivers in India is said to have made her abode in Shiva's hair. The legend of Bhagiratha states that when the sage of that name invoked the gods to send the divine Ganges to earth to relieve a drought and purify the remains of his ancestors, he was warned that the earth had not the capacity to withstand the descent of the Ganges from heaven, in pursuit of which he propitiated Siva to receive the Ganges upon her descent from heaven and release her with diminished force. Siva agreed to trap the youthful and mischievous Ganges in his matted locks and release her to the earth. It was thus, according to Hindu legend, that the Ganges came to be trapped in Siva's locks, and to be portrayed as flowing therefrom, in all representations of Siva

Narayana or Narayan is one of the names of Lord Vishnu, and also refers to Krishna as an incarnation of Vishnu. The name Narayana is a Sanskrit compound, with the members nara, which means "human, man", and ayana "eternal, without ending (a-yana)". Tradition associates the nara element with another meaning of "water", explaining the name as indicating the all-pervasive nature of Narayana as that of an infinite ocean in which the never-ending movement of birth, life and death of the cosmos occurs. Narayana according to this etymology is the one who moves in the infinite waters and is also the water itself. This close association of Narayana with water explains the frequent depiction of Narayana in Hindu Art as standing or sitting on an ocean. An another important translation of Narayana is "The supreme Man who is the foundation of all men”.

63. One more interpretation of the word Narayana: "Nara" meaning human and "Ayana" means direction/goal. Hence Narayana refers to the "direction of a human" (or the one that helps a human to his/her goal) -- that towards moksha, (liberation).
