Srila Prabhupada, Elevation To Krishna Consciousness: […] Surrender to Krishna is the point; that is the aim of life, and the bhaktas, the intelligent men of the world, take to this stage immediately. Therefore Krishna says that they are wise men. If, after many, many births one has to come to this point of surrender, then why not immediately?
The blazing fire of material nature is supervised by Durga. Often she is portrayed with weapons in her hands. She has ten hands, and each holds a different type of weapon. This indicates that she is ruling all ten directions of this universe.
She wields the different weapons to chastise the demons. There is one famous picture of a demon struggling with a lion, and the goddess Durga is pulling the demon’s hair and pushing her trident against his chest. If we study this picture we can determine that we are the demon and that the trident is the threefold miseries of material existence from which we are always suffering.
Some miseries are inflicted by other living entities, some are inflicted by natural disasters, and some are inflicted by the mind and body themselves. In one way or another we are always struggling against these three types of miseries. No one in the material creation can say that he is free from them.
The trident of this material nature is pressed against everyone’s chest, and because of this, pure happiness within this material world is not possible. We may try to satisfy Mother Durga by worshiping her or by giving her some bribe, but Durga is not so easily bribed.
Therefore we should know that our aim of life should be to understand the Supreme personality of Godhead. We should make every arrangement–social, political, philosophical or religious–but the aim should be to approach the Supreme person.
In the Vedas it is stated that the learned advanced people, the demigods of the creation, simply look to the lotus feet of Krishna. The aim should be the same with human civilization. Without looking to Krishna’s lotus feet, all religious, social or political endeavors will fail. It is not possible to make progress as long as our desires are anchored in the material world.
In this regard, there is a story of a bridegroom’s party who had to go to the bride’s house down the river. It was settled that they would start at night by boat and reach the destination early in the morning. Therefore at night, after supper, the jubilant party got aboard a boat, made themselves comfortable and instructed the boatmen to start.
Since all the members of the party were seated comfortably, and since the river breeze was very pleasant, they slept soundly that night. In the morning they all got up early, but to their astonishment they saw that the boat had not moved an inch toward the destination, even though the boatmen had rowed vigorously all night long.
Finally, after inquiring, they found that despite the boatmen’s rowing, the boat had not moved because they had failed to raise the anchor. The marriage ceremony was thus spoiled because of a foolish mistake. Full Chapter
Pamho agtacbsp,if we don’t want waste time we must stop to remember what is destined to be forget ,in few words is better to think always of SRI KRSNA because HE is never destined to be forget because HE is the cause of all causes.actually if someone want to destroy the HARE KRSNA they will destroy f-iskcon by thinking they are the real HARE KRSNA so we are always saved by avoiding disobedience to HDG ACBSP while the rebels will perish because DURGA DEVI killed the demons in whatever direction they are going they can’t escaped,DURGA DEVI is the shadow of knowledge and DURGAM means something far difficult to be obtained,DURGA is the sakti of SRI KRSNA chayeva yasya bhuvanani vibharti DURGA and SHE normally killed whoever cheat,steal ….and worship HER wrongly because SRI KRSNA give HER the power and position to do what SHE do but we are KRSNA BHAKTA and not DURGA BHAKTA,we offer our respect to mother DURGA and pray SRI KRSNA to be situated beyond the trident of the threefold misery of the material nature by taking the eleventh direction for KRSNA LOKA by chanting hare krsna maha mantra daily.agtacbsp ys haribol
Pamho agtacbsp,to be elevated in krsna consciousness means to destroy all our hidden and plenty of invisible enemies,i always ask to KRSNA how can i surrender to YOU with all these wretches enemies who keep to harrass me? But i keeping chanting hare krsna maha by hoping to get rid of all these enemies who trying to kill me since birth.actually I’m still alive because of the MAHA MANTRA HARE KRSNA otherwise I was helping my enemies to kill myself.I’m 61 years old now but i still don’t given up my fighting with all the enemies because i got faith in SSGG who already protected me from many invisible enemies until they get destroyed then i can surrender to YOU KRSNA ,this is my elevation to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS agtys.agtacbsp ys haribol
Pamho agtacbsp, especially the kali chela from India they are more envious then RURU SNAKES which is the most envious snake,SIVA SANKARA BHAGAVAN always pray SRI SANKARSANA in this way: please bind to the material samsara all the envious snakes who are incarnate in the human form of life and make free all the devotees who are never envious of nobody.actually we are forced to act under the three guna in this material world by showing what we aren’t by creating more conflict through karma,lobha,krodha,Mohan etc…SRILA PRABHUPADA SAY: after 31 years got the perfection of chanting hare krsna maha mantra this means that to get the perfection of SRI HARINAM is not easy at all, we just keeping trying by following the perfect example of SRILA PRABHUPADA to get saved by the inviousness of this horrible and nasty material world.

Pamho agtacbsp, all the envious people will die in a violent way and because they always enjoy to torture the devotees they will get torture too very badly until all poisoned effect of envy get destroyed especially if they do that to someone born with blessing because of special service to KRSNA in his previous lives i mean that blessing will kill the envious people even if they don’t know because they never done a special service for SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA therefore ignored that blessing as the killer of themselves and the time is the best witness we just need to wait because we will see that to come true through the factor time.

Pamho agtacbsp, in this relative world the enemy take birth as mother,sisters,brothers etc…but in KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS the enemy took birth as f-iskcon and the fools support this enemy because people is not very intelligent in kali yuga due to their misconceptions through sinful life on food guru and temples which are not vedic because of GURU AVAJNA then how can they get elevation to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS? That’s not possible because all power is in the instructions of SSGG while they are against to THEIR INSTRUCTIONS therefore they can’t make any spiritual advancement. Agtacbsp ys haribol
To co piszesz dobrze wyjaśnia, co się ze mną stało. Dziękuję.
What you write explains well what happened to me. Thank you.
Pamho agtacbsp, whoever can remember SRI HRISIKESA always through his senses engaged on hearing the HOLY NAME is making a huge spiritual progress that’s the secret to become KRSNA CONSCIOUS through the factor time, the hearing ,the thought and the meditation can elevate the sadhaka follower to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS but it must be done under the super vision of our guru maharaj as a pure devotee because if is not pure the process of KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS don’t work properly as we can see from the long list of fake guru who blupped very badly by hiding themselves because to take the position by doing the job of someone else is very dangerous.we are what we been in our previous lives at the present moment but now we got the chance to change our bad karma with SRILA PRABHUPADA but the bad karma keeping going through the guru hoax therefore this hoax must be remove then one can get elevation to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS.

Pamho agtacbsp,in this rotten age almost all the relationship are painful and when one get good time the troublesome action of the past break it too because one can have good time only by chanting hare krsna maha mantra beyond the influence on the factor time connected to our real identity without misunderstanding misconception etc…after all this intricate life is just a temporary bad dream to make us more aware about the lose to our best friend KRSNA the well wishers of all living entity nityo nityanam cetana cetananam eko bahunam yo vidhadati kaman ,one can get full mercy of KRSNA when one get rejected by the own family society etc..because all that born from the refusal to serve SSGG then we can serve our best friend with full devotion by getting everything back family society but spiritually because materially it is just a illusion which is the perfect designation reflection and identification for MAYA SUKAYA flickering happiness, elevation to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS can’t take place when someone is still attached to the fake reflection of the truth through fake family society friends etc…i mean one must be free from false relationship through worldly life then the elevation to KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS can be successful.
