You Cannot Expect Peaceful Life In The Material World, The Only Remedy Is Take Shelter Of The Lotus Feet of Krsna

[Gavin Swinden]

(In the material world you cannot expect very smooth, peaceful life. That is not possible. And the only remedy is to take shelter of the lotus feet of just Murāri. Murāri means Kṛṣṇa)

 

"The Caitanya Mahāprabhu's preaching is to request everyone to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa or Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa. So Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura said that "When I chant Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, then all dangers go away." So this place, this material world, is a dangerous place.

 

Padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadām. Vipad means danger, and padaṁ padam means every step. In the material world you cannot expect very smooth, peaceful life. That is not possible. And the only remedy is to take shelter of the lotus feet of just Murāri. Murāri means Kṛṣṇa."

(So meditation means to understand oneself, that I am not this body; I am spirit soul, and further advancement of that meditation is to know that what are the activities of the spirit soul, and when one is actually engaged in those spiritual activities, that is the perfection of meditation. So this Kṛṣṇa consciousness is direct engagement of spiritual activities.)

Self is peacefully engaged in satisfying eternal loving exchange with God. Material existence rebels against the Face of Godhead. Thus, there is nothing but shock and horror in the asat mundane existences.
