Finding What We Have Lost
Uploaded from Bhaktivedanta Ashram, Austin,
Texas USA | |
|
Sometimes
when we lose something which is very valuable and
necessary for us, such as our wallet, it becomes such a
great disturbance that our entire consciousness becomes
absorbed in finding that missing thing. For example,
even while eating we may think of that missing thing
instead of our meal. Or we may awaken in the morning to
find ourselves wondering where is that missing valuable
as the only thing worth thinking about.
In the same way we should realize that we have lost the
absolutely most essential valuable item of our
existence, the association of the Supreme Personality of
Godhead, Lord Sri Krishna, and we should thus intensely
absorb our entire consciousness in finding that sublime
all-merciful Supreme Personality of Godhead, searching,
searching, searching for Him everywhere until finally we
are reunited with Him in our svarupa, our eternal
relationship with Him in the spiritual sky.

Question:
How Demigods Can Be Mortals? |
|
You have stated that the demigods are mortals like us.
How can you confirm this when there is so much
difference between the demigods and ourselves? How
can you say that they are in the same category as
ordinary humans?
Thank you.

Answer: They Die When the
Universe is Destroyed |
|
The answer is very simple.
When the powerful demon Hiranyakasipu petitioned the
chief demigod Lord Brahma for the boon of immortality
Brahmaji told him, "Since I am not immortal, I cannot
give you immortality." The demigods are powerful
controllers of this material universe. That's a fact.
But at the end of Brahma's life this material universe
is destroyed along with all of its inhabitants,
including Lord Brahma and the thirty three million
demigods. Therefore Lord Krishna states in the
Bhagavad-gita that demigod worship is for those who have
lost their intelligence. If we worship the demigods, we
go to the demigods and remain mortal. If we would like
to become immortal, we can do that by worshipping Lord
Krishna, the source of eternal existence.
