Krishna Consciousness in All Situations

One
test of how well situated you are
in in Krishna consciousness is how well you can maintain
your Krishna consciousness in any and all situations.
The key for doing this successfully is to carefully and
faithfully follow these guidelines:
1. Regularly chant your prescribed number of rounds of
the Hare Krishna mahamantra every day on your japa mala
beads as early as possible in the day, ideally before
sunrise. For initiates this is at least 16 rounds daily.
For others, it is according to their vows.
2. Strictly avoid illicit sex, meat eating,
intoxication, and gambling because these pollute
the consciousness making it difficult, if not
impossible, to remember Krishna.
3. Spend as much time as possible every day reading and
hearing the transcendental glories of Lord Sri Krishna
(Krishna katha).
3. Render as much service as possible to the Krishna
consciousness movement regularly contributing to it as
much as possible in as many ways as possible.
4. Always pray to guru and Krishna that you can be saved
from the grip of maya or illusion.
If you will stick to the above principles, you will
always be happy in ever-increasing Krishna consciousness
in all situations.

Question:
Brahman, Paramatma, and Bhagavan |
|
What is the
difference between Brahman, Paramatma, and Bhagavan?
V.G.
|
|
Answer: Perfect, More
Perfect, and Most Perfect |
|
Brahman is the impersonal aspect of the Supreme, the
undifferentiated oneness. Paramatma is the four-handed
form of the Supreme Lord situated in the heart of all
living beings. And Bhagavan is the Supreme Personality
of Godhead, the source of all existence. One who
realizes Brahman has a perfect realization of the sat or
eternity aspect of the Supreme. One realizes the
Paramatma has a more perfect realization of the
sat and cit (knowledge) features of the Supreme. And one
who realizes Bhagavan has the most perfect realization
of the sat, cit, and ananda (bliss) features of the
Supreme.
