The Shastras are not meant to simply entertain our intelligence. They are meant to change our heart. The Shastras are meant to actually change the quality of our life and what is that essential quality that is meant to be changed, that we must transform our attachment to matter and the senses to attachment to Krishna or God & His service.
If one sincerely searches for spiritual salvation, then Krishna, being situated in everyone’s heart, gives him the intelligence to find a suitable spiritual master. By the grace of a spiritual master, one gets the proper instructions and advances in his spiritual life.

There is no greater healer and there is no greater destroyer than sound vibrations and the condition of the world is very much dependent on what sound vibrations are permeating the atmosphere.
