(Kadamba Kanana Swami, February 2011, Stockholm, Sweden, Lecture)

It is certainly good to look for inspiration in the association of devotees but we must also learn to find it when we are completely alone. If we always try to fill the vacuum by being with others and hoping that something inspirational is going to happen, then each time when we are alone, we fall back in a vacuum.

No, we must also learn toappreciate Krsna’s presence when we are alone. He’s here! He’s always here! He’s really here! We are never alone! Krsna is here in all his magnificent glories. So where is the question of having to go to anyone when we have Krsna?

In any relationship, there is always a third person – Krsna, and he is by far more inspiring than any other person. It is Krsna that is the most inspiring person in any relationship. So, we have to remember the third person is always there, and ultimately, that he is the one! The one whom we are actually taking inspiration from!

Bhava Grahi Janardana

Posted by dinesh

Krishna has a name like, "Bhava Grahi Janardana" because He sees only the attitude with which you approach Him. If someone is unable to even pronounce Krishna still Krishna would consider their devotion. We see for instance Chinese language is so hard for the Maha mantra due to the language deficiency.

Nobody's innocent!

Posted by dinesh

Nobody is innocent in this world. Each one of us is a culprit who tried to defy the authority of the Lord and desired to compete with Him. The same is happening with other fellow beings. This world is similar to a room full of dogs fighting for self-gratification and power.

Soldiers

People who are in the military fighting to defend the country are recognized by the government. Similarly those who preach the message of Lord Caitanya are soldiers who are easily recognized by the Lord.

I am right, and you are wrong!

Posted by dinesh

Every person in the world thinks that he/she is right all the time and justifies his /her actions based on his/her relative perception with people and situations. But the reality is it may not be so for most of the times.

In the court of Yamaraja, the judgement of our actions will be presented and at that time we will be forced to understand the reality and our mistakes and sins if we can't humbly and gracefully accept our faults and mistakes now.

There's a famous story in Mahabharata in this regard. One time Duryodhana was asked to see who all are good around him. He went on searching but within his mind he couldn't perceive anyone else to be better than himself due to his false pride and arrogance. And finally came back saying there is none as good as himself. This is the sign of ignorant men.

When Yudhistra maharaja was asked to find someone who is the worst, he went all around and was seeing everyone else as better in qualities than himself due to his nature of finding faults within himself and magnifying even the minute faults of himself. So he finally came back saying that there is none so bad than himself.

A person who really feels the presence of God and His supremacy always feel the self to be unqualified and humble in any situation. This is the sign of Godly men.
