1. Janmashtami means not just the day of the year every time we celebrate and get back to our normal routines.
2. Actual Janmashtami means Krishna has to take birth in our heart.
3. Srila Vishwatha Chakravarthi Thakur says Mother Devaki represents Bhakti, Kamsa the fear of material existence and the six sons of Devaki as the six things such as lust, greed, pride, anger, madness, envy.
4. Only when these six things are killed, Guru(represents Balaram) and Krishna will appear within our hearts and that's when real Janmashtami happens.
5. When Guru comes he will clean the residual effects of the six entities within our hearts and makes it suitable to invite Krishna to the heart.
6. The rest of the year, we have to do the homework of cleaning our heart from these six entities and during the next Janmashtami we should call upon Krishna to take birth in our heart.
7. Krishna wants us to love Him and that's why He appears in this world. Otherwise just the material nature itself can do the job of killing demons.
(Contd...)
Yours
