Who are you?… Are you your body? Or your mind? Or are you something higher? Do you know who you are, or do you merely think you know? And does it really matter? Our materialistic society, with its unenlightened leadership, has made it virtually taboo to inquire into our real, higher self. Instead we use our valuable time maintaining, decorating, and pampering the body for its own sake. Might there be an alternative?
This very important Krsna consciousness movement is meant to save human society from spiritual death. At present human society is being misled by leaders who are blind, for they do not know the aim and objective of human life, which is self-realization and the reestablishment of our lost relationship with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is the missing point. The Krsna consciousness movement is trying to enlighten human society in this important matter.
According to Vedic civilization, the perfection of life is to realize one’s relationship with Krsna, or God. In the Bhagavad-gita, which is accepted by all authorities in transcendental science as the basis of all Vedic knowledge, we understand that not only human beings but all living entities are parts and parcels of God. The parts are meant for serving the whole, just as the legs, hands, fingers, and ears are meant for serving the total body. We living entities, being parts and parcels of God, are duty-bound to serve Him.
Actually our position is that we are always rendering service to someone, either to our family, country, or society. If we have no one to serve, sometimes we keep a pet cat or dog and render service to it. All these factors prove that we are constitutionally meant to render service, yet in spite of serving to the best of our ability, we are not satisfied. Nor is the person to whom we are rendering that service satisfied. On the material platform, everyone is frustrated. The reason for this is that the service being rendered is not properly directed. For example, if we want to render service to a tree, we must water the root. If we pour water on the leaves, branches, and twigs, there is little benefit. If the Supreme Personality of Godhead is served, all other parts and parcels will be automatically satisfied. Consequently all welfare activities as well as service to society, family, and nation are realized by serving the Supreme Personality of Godhead.”
pamho agtACBSP, until our sambandha jnana eternal relationship with SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA is not established yet things will go always in the opposite side of our willing that’s the frustation in the material world. SRILA PRABHUPADA also used to say sometimes we are demigods sometimes human being and sometimes animals, when we are demigods we are always jubiliant when we are human we are over lamenting most of the time and when we are animals we are always full of fear.
Nowadays our society can’t be called even human because almost everyone gets akuto bhayam intense fear by acting under the inferior energy of SRI KRSNA, and SRILA PRABHUPADA says that they don’t know they are still under the influences of the inferior energy therefore a lot of kanistha adhikari devotees do not care about what SRI KRSNA says, neither they give attention to the writing of the previous acharyas instead of that they want to be listen by checking all the time the result of their activities dedicate to SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA. Hare baba all of you were already existing before created by SRI KRSNA therefore the service must be unmotivated like in the sva murti form, don’t remain a dog by looking always to be awarded by checking what you are doing for Krsna, HE knows everything and SRILA PRABHUPADA says never try to check Krsna through the result of your spiritual activities.
As we can see we are not even demigods anymore at the present Moment, and the visuddha sattva platform looks more difficulty to be reach for human being in planet earth who are thinking they are still in the heaven by enjoying stools. Things are changing constantly in the material world but everyone wants to control still, no one wants to surrender, even through their very limited liberty almost everyone is attached to the own misery through the guna sango-sya. SRILA PRABHUPADA is saving the humanity by giving us that nectar that we are always looking in for, Krsna also says the same in the c.c i take the stools out of their mouth and i will give them the sandesh.
To know who we really are means to work very hard day and night to find out that blissful eternal spiritual body created by SRI KRSNA is not for relaxed kangoorus who lost themselves through flickring position fame wealth etc. They are godasa servants of their senses mind ego etc.. therefore the way out from all this rubbish coming from the bodily concept of life is to serve SRILA PRABHUPADA life after life until we get the perfection through our eternal relationship with SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA established, agtSP ys haribol
