George Harrison passed away eighteen years ago. He was not only a great musician but a good
human being. He attracted thousands of
people to the lifestyle of bhakti/devotion, through his music. He once wrote:
Everybody is looking for Krishna. Some don't realize that they are, but they are. Krishna is God, the Source of all that
exists, the Cause of all that is, was, or ever will be. As God is unlimited, He has many names. Allah-Buddha-Jehovah-Rama. All are Krishna, all are One.
God is not abstract; he has both the impersonal and the
personal aspects to His personality, which is Supreme, Eternal, Blissful and
full of knowledge. As a single drop of
water has the same qualities as an ocean of water, so has our consciousness the
qualities of God's consciousness...but through our identification and
attachment with material energy (physical body, sense pleasures, material possessions,
ego etc.) our true transcendental consciousness has been polluted, and like a
dirty mirror it is unable to reflect a pure image.
With many lives our association with the temporary has
grown. This impermanent body, a bag of
bones and flesh, is mistaken for our true self, and we have accepted this
temporary condition to be final. Through
all ages great saints have remained as living proof that this non-temporary,
permanent state of God consciousness can be revived in all living souls. Each soul is potentially divine.
Krishna says in the Bhagavad Gita, "Steady in the self,
being freed from all material contamination, the yogi achieves the highest
perfectional stage of happiness in touch with the Supreme Consciousness."
(4.28)
Yoga (a scientific method for God [Self] realization is the
process by which we purify our consciousness, stop further pollution, and
arrive at the state of perfection, full knowledge, full bliss.
If there's a God, I want to see Him. It’s pointless to believe in something
without proof, and Krishna Consciousness and meditation are methods where you
can actually obtain God perception. You
can actually see God and hear Him, play with Him. It might sound crazy, but He is actually
there, actually with you.
There are many yogic paths—raja, jnana,
hatha, kriya, karma, bhakti—which are all acclaimed
by the masters of each method.
Swami Bhaktivedanta is as his title says, a bhakti yogi,
following the path of devotion. By
serving God through each thought, word and deed, and by the chanting of His
holy names, the devotee quickly develops God consciousness. By chanting
Hare Krishna
Hare Krishna
Krishna
Krishna Hare Hare
Hare Rama
Hare Rama
Rama Rama
Hare Hare
one inevitably arrives at Krishna Consciousness. (The proof of the pudding is in the eating!)
I request that you take advantage of this book KRISHNA and
enter into its understanding. I also
request that you make an appointment to meet your God now, through the
self-liberating process of yoga (union) and Give Peace A Chance.
All You Need Is Love (Krishna) Hari Bol

May the Source be with you!
