A Happy Soil for Your Soul to Live
Q: In consideration of the present world pandemic, and the material world in general, why does God allow suffering? Krishna is happiness personified, but we turn away from Him. — Krishna’s world and our world. — Are we forgotten by the Lord? — Internal and external guides. — Innumerable avatars for rescuing fallen souls. — Shadow state of the soul. — Consciousness is the original source of everything. — Don’t try to take stand in this plane. — The original spiritual form of the soul is the servant of Krishna. — “Merge yourself wholly in His interest — then you will be happy.” — The really happy life. — “Only soul to be taken to that Land.” — An astonishing glimpse of the soul. — The defects of our life. — How to reach your sweet home? — Humanism is the consequence of mayavad. — Appeal to the lower-self: the suicidal civilization. — “Be desperate for giving yourself and you will be a gainer also…” Q: How to stop just being in love with Krishna and start loving Him? — Why Vedavyas is a “traitor to the cause”. — The personality of Krishna. — Eros in both worlds. — Love and affection towards Krishna can be awakened in one’s heart by the grace of the Vaishnavas. — God as an “immoral man”. — Qualification to enter Krishna’s pastimes. — Break your attachment to this world. — What will satisfy the heart?

The whole spiritual world is comprised not only of consciousness, but consciousness enriched with the highest sort of dedicating tendency. That means: cinmoi. From the ground up. What to speak of the superior souls and the divine servitors traversing that plane in loving service to the Lord of love Krishna.
Guru Maharaj says, “Our policy should be to make the best use of a bad bargain. Somehow or other we’ve already come here, so now we have to utilize our time and our energy in such a way that with the least exploitation we can get out of this world.”
Guru Maharaj says, “Be desperate for giving yourself and you will be a gainer also within that line: give — and have.”
Without sensing that prospect [for sensuous expression] in the “serve in heaven”, then people will always want to reign in hell, but with religious guidelines.
If we don’t systematically approach Krishna-conception as it’s presented in the pages of the Bhagavatam, as it is revealed by Chaitanya Mahaprabhu then Krishna conception will take the superficial aspects of Krishna consciousness as the wallpaper of our lives. It will be shallow or superficial.
What will satisfy the inner necessity of the heart which is hankering, ultimately, not for something to consume, but to utterly give itself to in dedication? — That is what is presented in Krishna conception.
