When everyone was small I'm sure you saw some other kid in a swimming pool with a big inflatable bed or tube and really wished you had it to play with. All kids dream of having a nice inflatable bed to float on in the waters. Everything originates in Krishna, even the desire to float on a bed in the swimming pool.

Dear Guruvani,

"I really envy those devotees who get to stay in India.
India is the place.

I have always wanted to stay in India, but I haven't been that fortunate.

While some dream of going back to Godhead, I simply dream of taking an auspicious birth in India.

To take birth as an Indian sage is the envy of the demigods.

Few get that great opportunity."

I appreciate your feelings. Though to some extent, palces we take birth doesn't effect our spirituality if we come with pure heartedly. If you carry this feeling on, you may take next birth in India and try for the advancement. Simply being Indian doesn't mean all are privilleged with pure spirituality as you know the world. It's true that there are lotta Shadhus in India but not even a single is enlightened among this crowd. Being enlightened and being Shadhu or Sanysai has no relation. Even a householder can get the perfection and I've met few of them with full Kundalini awakening.And Ive seen people even with Third Eye awakening have been leading life in reversed way as been set up by their Gurus here India and Nepal. And have heard people from the west getting the perfection. So, pls don't regard the people from this side are to get the perfection. You can get that if you find a true and capable Guru. But not by reading any scriptures or else like that. I'm not against of reading scriptures as they are the source of some kind of knowledge but never could reach you to the perfection. They fill with us the points, logics, to carry on a discussion like those philosophers...like Osho, JR Krisnamurthy and so so... ... ... (no offence meant).

(((((((((There's still another great place in the earth, in Bharata Varsha, even the great Yogis dream to get birth.))))))))))

regards

Naga is a form of creature like us human and others. THis is just another Yoni like Manava Yoni, Bhoota Yoni, Deva Yoni etc. Naga are much more powerful than humans.
