Unbewildered in All Circumstances

 This material world is a bewildering place. There are always disturbing things going on here that are beyond our control. Those who are fixed in Krishna consciousness are not disturbed by these things, nor are they carried way or intoxicated by the temporary pleasures of this material world. Such great transcendentalists are known as mahatmas, and being very merciful upon the illusioned souls of this world they fully absorb their lives in the ultimate welfare work of saving the deluded world population from its suffering condition.

Question: Is Devotee Distressed By Other's Distress? |
|
|
Please accept my obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
If someone feels bad, should we be pulled down and also feel bad out of compassion and identification with him?

Answer: The Devotee Lovingly Embraces Distress |
|
|
Even though the devotee of the Lord is never distressed in any condition of life, he us known as para-dukha-dukhī, one who feels distressed to see the distress of others. Therefore he dedicates his entire life for freeing all of the suffering people from their misery by teaching them the sublime process of Krishna consciousness. Because of this pure compassion Krishna is very pleased with him and bestows upon him the supreme happiness, Krishna prema.
