<p>Prabhupāda: Hm. The name was kept Abhaya. Abhaya means "There is no fear of death of this child." In my maternal uncle's house, because I was born on the Nandotsava, they kept my name Nandadulal.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Nandadulal? Why were you called like that?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Because I was born in Nandotsava day.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Did they used to call you Nandadulal?</p>

<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Now we are being given a new training by you, Śrīla Prabhupāda.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: We've become happy. Actually, apart from the devotees, there are no happy people in the whole world.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. That is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā.</p>
