WITHOUT LOVE OF GOD

EVERYTHING IS USELESS

 

There is no goal other than pure love, which

mocks the four goals of life and conquers the Lord’s

lotus feet.

Religiosity, economic development, sense

gratification and liberation are known as the

four goals of life, but before love of Godhead,

the fifth and highest goal, these appear as insignificant

as straw in the street. ”

[sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu said:] Without love of

Godhead, My life is useless. Therefore I pray that

You accept Me as Your servant and give Me the

salary of ecstatic love of God. — Cc. antya 20.37.

 

Gaining the wealth of love of Godhead, one

again and again acts as a madman. Without that

love the nine processes of devotional service

to Lord Mukunda bring no happiness.

 

They become like vegetables without salt, a

feast without hunger, scripture-study without

understanding, or orchards without fruit. —.

 

Those who spend their time engaged in devotion

to Lord Hari are really alive, whereas those

who are devoid of devotion to Hari are factually

dead and undone. All creatures, even mosquitoes,

flies, crows, as well as millions and millions of different

kinds of insects also lead their lives engaged

in eating, sleeping, mating, procuring etc. If human

beings also lead lives of gross sense enjoyment

devoid of devotion to Krishna, then they are

no better than those insects.

Hari-bhakti-sudhodoya 17.51-52.

 

As random digging in the earth where there

is no buried treasure is a waste of time, and as

by pounding husk no grain can be gotten, similarly

for those who do not culture devotion to

Krishna their every act is in vain.

Hari-bhakti-sudhodoya 19.36.

To hell with our

birth as brahmanas! To hell with our learning of

Vedic literatures! To hell with our performing

sacrifice and observing the rules and regulations

of scripture! To hell with our families! To

hell with it all, for as a result of these we have

become opposed to loving the blessed Supreme

Lord, who is beyond the speculation of our

body, mind, and senses. — Bhag. /images/graemlins/smile.gif10.23.40.
