If one is careless in chanting and watering his bhakti creeper, some water may fall to the wayside and nourish unwanted “weeds”. These weeds (different types of anarthas) may shoot up very quickly and choke out the tiny creeper of devotion. Such improper chanting, which is called bhukti-nama or mukti-nama, waters the weeds of sense enjoyment and the desire for liberation. Thus one fails to attain the goal of suddha or prema-nama.
