Glossary Term
Risk: Critical- Approved rendering
- प्रभु
- Transliteration
- prabhu
- Rejected alternatives
- महाराजा (a title strongly associated with the historic Dogra royal dynasty, avoid as the primary term for Christ's Lordship)
Lord
CRITICAL: प्रभु is preferred over महाराजा (maharaja), the title of the historic Dogra rulers who patronized the Raghunath Mandir and Bahu Fort temple; using a dynastic royal title for Christ risks framing his Lordship as a political-historical kind of rule rather than exclusive, supreme divine Lordship.
