Personal Guidance
Vasvananta, Yuyudha, Subhāṣaṇa, Śruta, Jaya, Vijaya, Ṛta — even more names, each meaning something noble. Even when we do not know the person, we can honor the meaning of the name they carried.
Reflection Questions
- What meaning does my own name carry, and have I asked anyone old enough to know?
- Where could I honor a virtue simply by remembering it in someone's name?
