Krsna consciousness is about Krsna, the all-attractive Supreme Personality of Godhead. He attracts. It’s not always that we have to push ourselves to be Krsna conscious- how am I going to be Krsna conscious? Somehow or other I must be Krsna conscious! I don’t know how going to be Krsna conscious! It’s so difficult to be Krsna conscious! How am I going to be Krsna conscious?’ No, that is not our process. Our process is very simple; it is simply to hear about Krsna, to hear about His qualities, to hear descriptions about His form, His pastimes, His name and so on. And sooner or later we will become attracted automatically. It is not possible to hear about Krsna, to hear His name or about His qualities without becoming attracted. It may take some time but gradually it will penetrate. The living entity is covered by a layer of lust and envy but gradually the influence of Krsna will penetrate into those layers and it will manage to attract the heart. |

Better a king in hell than a servant! But actually we know that Krsna Himself becomes a servant because this kind of service has nothing to do with the slavery of the material world. This kind of service is not forced by whips, ‘….and you shall bow and you shall now crawl and you shall do as I say (whipping noise).’ It is simply service that comes out of love. It is the mood of wanting to do something for someone else because this person is very dear to us. In this way the devotees want to serve Krsna and in the same way Krsna wants to serve His devotees. It is that relationship that is the essence of all existence… |
