Today's Thought:

Regain Your Natural Blissful Consciousness
uploaded from Sri Vrindavan Dhama, India

All you have to do to be happy is to be yourself. Nothing artificial is required. The reason that we are unhappy is that we have been trained to see everything in an artificial, highly distorted, false way. In other words, we don't know who we are. This is why we are suffering. We think that we are these temporary material bodies instead of eternal spiritual beings. The body is just a temporary covering of the actual eternal self. To become free from this bodily concept we need to hear submissively from the bona fide spiritual master. He will teach us to see things clearly so that we can regain our original, natural, all-blissful state of consciousness known as Krishna consciousness.

Question: Comment on Mother Theresa's Words


What is your comment on these words of Mother Theresa?:

"If you can't love the person whom you see, then how can you love God whom you cannot see?"

Your humble servant,

Vijayakumar
 


Answer: See God and Give the Highest Service to All


We have no interest in giving opinionated comments on the sayings of others. However, we can analyze the strength or weakness of any statement based on the timeless teachings of the Vedas, which are coming from Lord Sri Krishna, the supreme authority.

This statement is saying that if we don't love man, we cannot love God. But if we carefully analyze the science of the relationship between the Lord and the living entities, we will see that actually it is the other way around. If we don't love God, we cannot truly love and serve man.

Without God consciousness we will be merely serving a man's external covering, the material body, and will be neglecting service to the eternal spirit-soul who dwells within. While on the material level we may be able give a person temporary relief from misery, we cannot give him permanent relief from misery. On the spiritual platform, however, we can give him permanent relief from all kinds of suffering by delivering him back to his original home in the spiritual world, far beyond this world of miseries.

And besides this, we can see God, if we will follow the prescribed  process for qualifying ourselves to see Him, as elaborately described in the Vedic literatures. So if someone wants to be the perfect servant of all persons, they should not neglect seeing the Supreme Person, Lord Sri Krishna, as described in the Sri Isopanisad:

yas tu sarvāṇi bhūtāny
ātmany evānupaśyati
sarva-bhūteṣu cātmānaṁ
tato na vijugupsate

"He who sees systematically everything in relation to the Supreme Lord, who sees all living entities as His parts and parcels, and who sees the Supreme Lord within everything never hates anything or any being."
--Sri Isopanisad Mantra 6

Even if we are not yet pure enough to see God directly with our eyes, we can still see Him through the eyes of the scriptures, as described above, and render the best service to all by fully engaging ourselves in the devotional service of the Lord.
