NRSIMHADEVA

Krtina, Slovenia

A devotee of Lord Nrsimhadeva, Prahlada Maharaja, prayed like this:

"May there be good fortune throughout the universe, and may all envious persons be pacified. May all living entities become calm by practicing bhakti-yoga, for by accepting devotional service they will think of each other's welfare. Therefore let us all engage in the service of the supreme transcendence, Lord Sri Krsna, and always remain absorbed in thought of Him." SB 5.18.9

Srila Prabhupada writes in the Purport:

Therefore Prahlada Maharaja prays that all envious persons may undergo a change of heart and think of the welfare of others.

If the Krsna consciousness movement spreads all over the world, and if by the grace of Krsna everyone accepts it, the thinking of envious people will change.

***

This is a way to achieve peace in the world -- by reducing or eliminating the envy between people and towards other living entities.

All living entities are parts of God and children of God.

There is no reason to be envious of our brothers and sister.

Better to think how we can help them succeed on their journey back to Godhead.
