You must have heard about Prahlad and his great faith and devotion. Once he saw kittens playing inside a pitcher which had just been fired in a kiln and this firmed his belief in a power even greater than his father, the king. He remembered this power of God and meditated upon divine light. This angered his father Hiranyakashyap and he asked his wife to tell Prahlad not to remember God. Prahlad's mother told him, “Son, do not antagonise your father. Stop remembering the Name of God.” Prahlad replied, “I'm willing to abandon the Name, but that Name does not abandon me!” So let us ask what is it that cannot be abandoned. It is that Name which is within everyone's heart and it cannot be abandoned.
