Science of Krsna Consciousness, Sri Mahanet Comments Off on Sri Mahanet – July 2023

The superexcellence of devotion in the mood of Vrndavana —
Of persons afraid of material existence, some worship the Sruti Scriptures (Vedas), some worship the Smrti Scriptures (supplementary Religious Codes), and others worship the Mahabharata. But as far as I am concerned, I worship Sri Nanda Maharaja, in whose courtyard the Supreme Absolute Truth is playing.
— Sri Raghupati Upadhyaya

Science of Krsna Consciousness, Sri Mahanet Comments Off on Sri Mahanet – April 2023

The realization of the nature of unconditional devotion—


O Supreme Lord, if our devotion for You were more steadfast, Your adolescent form would naturally arise (appear) within our hearts. Then (there would not be the slightest necessity to pray for the triple pursuits of religiosity, gain, and sensual desire [dharma, artha, kama], and their negation in the form of liberation [mukti], because) mukti will personally attend us (as a concomitant subsidiary fruit of devotion, in the form of deliverance from ignorance), her hands cupped in prayer (like a preordained maidservant); and the fruits of bhukti (transitory pleasure culminating in attainment of heaven) will eagerly await their orders (from us, should any necessity arise for them in the service of Your lotus feet).

The aspiration to attain to the perfection of becoming an associate servitor of the Lord —


O my Lord, please lead me into the glance of those great devotees who, in their heart’s aspiration to only once behold Your divine form, consider sense enjoyment and liberation to be like straw, and whose separation is unbearable for even You.

— Sri Yamunacaryya

An earnest aspiration to achieve perfection in devotional service

When will I bloom in a life of servitude as Your eternal devotee, my heart pacified due to all other desires being consumed by engagement in Your uninterrupted service?

Supramundane attachment also develops

The Scriptures may say whatever they have to say (in their various areas of jurisdiction), and the expert logicians may interpret them as they wish. But as far as I am concerned, the sweet nectar of the lotus feet of Sri Caitanyacandra is my life and soul.      

 — Sri Prabodhananda Saraswati
