10 Offenses against the Holy Name

HARINAMA CINTAMANI, CHAPTER 4
"Offenses against the Holy Name are analyzed as ten, according to the Scriptures. You should be fearful of committing the following offenses:

1) Blaspheme or criticize the Vaisnavas. 2) Consider that the other living entities, such as the demigods, are independent of Krishna. 3) Disobey or disrespect the guru. 4) Disrespect the authority of the Scriptures. 5) Interpret the meaning of the Name and think that the glories of the Holy Name are imaginary. 6) Commit sinful activities, trusting in the protection of the Holy Name. 7) Deliver the Holy Name to the infidels who are not ready to accept it. 8) Consider the Holy Name as karma and pious activity. 9) Be distracted while singing the Holy Name. 10) After having received the perfect knowledge and being aware of the glories of the Name, remain attached to the material world of 'I' and 'mine' and, finally, reject the Name.
