THE PERFECTION OF LIFE

[Guest guest]

That same Personality of Godhead is personally

speaking about Himself to Arjuna. How can someone simply

by speculaton speak something about God more

important than what is being spoken by Krsna Himself? No

one can speak better than Krsna about God, because

God Himself is speaking about Himself. If you speak

about yourself, who can speak more than you? <br>If we

have faith, if we believe theoretically and

practically that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead,

then by Krsna's speeches in this chapter we can

understand God. There is no difficulty. We can understand

how He is working, how His energies are acting, how

He is manifested, what is the material world, what

is the spiritual world, what are the living

creatures, what is their relationship with God - so many

things in God's creation. <br>The whole Vedic literature

is dealing in three things: understanding our

relationship with God, acting in that relationship, and

attaining the goal of life - love of God. <br>The first

thing is our relationship with God. Then, when we

understand our relationship with God, the second thing is to

act in that relationship. For example, as soon as a

relationship is established between a man and woman - that one

is husband and the other is wife - then reciprocal

dealings begin. <br>So first you must understand your

relationship with God. That relationship will be revealed when

you are perfectly liberated. Every living creature

has a particular relationship with God. We have

forgotten that. When that relationship is revealed in the

process of devotional activities, Krsna consciousness,

you should know that you have attained the perfection

of your life. <br>Krsna consciousness is a great

science. It is not sentiment or mental speculation or a

bluff.
