Guest guest Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 Clear Day …………...Droplets from Nectarean Ocean We must understand the essence _ So therefore, it is very necessary to scrutinisingly study the philosophy, but don't think that in and of itself will help you. We must understand the essence - Bhakti and you must put that into your life. And if you do, your heart will gradually melt .. And in that state out of love, you will gradually begin to long more and more and more for the presence of God in your life. Prabhuapada would often tell us, the price of Krishna, is the tears that you flow from your eyes, in longing of separation from Him. We must learn to long for Krishna. We must learn to long for the compassion to help every living being who is a part and parcel of Krishna. And all of these glorious attributes are born from one who attentively chants the holy name - Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare / Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. Chanting the holy name by attentively offering our consciousness to the process of hearing to eachand every syllable. This is the goal of life and the means to attain it. *************************************************************** You will not be the loser ------------------------ When Krishna played the flute, the gopis, they left their parents, they left everything to join Krishna. Well I tell you my friends whenever the kirtan of the holy name is going on with association of saintly persons; the flute of Krishna is playing. How many of us are in the mood of gopis. They were ready to risk everything, to lose everything, to join the kirtan that is the qualification and the value. On Sunday Krishna is playing His flute all day long in Radha Gopinath Mandir. But His flute will be sounding in His name as all the devotees are chanting and dancing. The glories have been discussed in Srimad Bhagvatam and Bhagavat Gita discourses. Are we in the mood of the gopis? Nothing has any value except that in comparison to that. The gopis renounced everything and attained the highest position of Krishna’s true blessing. They didn’t lose anything. Rupa Goswami says, do not think that if you surrender to Krishna you will be the loser, you will not lose anything except bondage, frustration, suffering. That is all you will lose. What will you gain? The ultimate goal of Krishna Consciousness, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.
