These days everybody wants their opinion to be cast. Thus, the present scenario is “jitney log, utni baatein.”
Whenever we see a thing of beauty, we should think of Krishna as the proprietor of that creation.
How can the fire of material suffering continue to burn the hearts of those who worship the Supreme Lord? The Lord's lotus feet have performed innumerable heroic deeds, and the beautiful nails on His toes resemble valuable jewels. The effulgence emanating from those nails resembles cooling moonshine, for it instantly relieves the suffering within the heart of the pure devotee, just as the appearance of the moon's cooling light relieves the burning heat of the sun.
The Lord comes in a different form or partial form in order to deliver his devotees and generally he is always telling us how to surrender and how to serve him. If one directly serves the Lord with no condition, unconditionally "I am serving you Lord for Your pleasure, I want me to do what you want me to do". If we do things in that way the amazing thing is that the Lord becomes very pleased with us. The Supreme Lord has given us everything, what can we do for him? When we appreciate how great he is and feel grateful, that is the beginning of pure devotion. Pure devotion should be the goal of our life.
The conditioned soul cannot revive his Krishna consciousness by his own effort but out of causeless mercy, Lord Krishna compiled the Vedic literature and its supplements, the Puranas.
By once serving Lord Damodara in Mathura during Karttika, the people can easily attain pure devotional service to Lord Hari.
One can attain perfect stage of liberation from birth and death simply by knowing the Supreme Personality of Godhead and there is no other way to achieve this perfection.
1. Symptom of a devotee in pure love is that he will not hurt even an ant knowing thatKrishna is within his heart.
2. Devotee means he has no material desire.
Pure devotional service is so spiritually relishable that a devotee becomes automatically uninterested in material enjoyment. That is the sign of perfection in progressive devotional service. A pure devotee continuously remembers the lotus feet of the Lord Sri Krishna and does not forget Him even for a moment, not even in exchange for all the opulence of the three worlds.
