Today's Thought: |
 |
Perfect Chanting Means Perfect Relationship
with Krishna
Uploaded from Riga, Latvia |
|
|
|
 The
quality of our relationship with Krishna is manifest in
proportion to the quality of our japa. Sloppy, deficient
japa means a sloppy, deficient relationship with
Krishna. Perfect japa means a perfect relationship with
Krishna. If we do not have perfect japa, we do not have
a perfect relationship with Krishna. Imperfection in our
relationship with Krishna means that we are still
flirting with Maya, the material energy. Such a love
affair with the material energy is suicidal for the
eternal living being in that it relegates him to rotate
perpetually in the cycle of birth and death. Therefore
to be saved from the clutches of the material energy we
have no alternative. We must perfect our japa by diving
deep into transcendental meditation each time we chant
our rounds.

Answers According to the Vedic Version: |
|
|
|
Request: Change the Radha Krishna Picture |
|
|
Please
keep our request. Change the icon image of Sri Radha
Krishna which appears daily in "Thought for the Day."
There are so many dynamic and brilliant images. Forgive
me for my mistakes.

Answer: You Are Seeing It With
Material Eyes |
|
|
I am surprised by your
request to change the picture of Radha and Krishna. This
means that when you look at the image you are not seeing
Radha and Krishna. You are seeing instead the external
material features of the painting without connecting
with the Supreme Personality of Godhead who is fully
present and manifesting His unlimited power, beauty,
renunciation, knowledge, wealth, and fame through this
extraordinary painting by a great devotee. That you are
not perceiving the dynamic brilliance of this painting
means that you are not seeing it with the eyes of love.
You are seeing it instead with material eyes. This means
that you should go deeper into your heart by awakening
the love of God within. Then you will see how Sri Sri
Radha and Krishna are both so splendorously present in
this magnificent painting.
Mistakes are forgiven, but by submissive hearing from
the spiritual master we have to learn how to avoid
making foolish mistakes. It is not that we should
continue making mistakes without learning how to avoid
them, thinking that we can continue counteracting them
by repeatedly begging for forgiveness. The proper mood
is to hear carefully and remold our consciousness
according to the directions received from the spiritual
master and other Vedic authorities.
