Radhanath Swami on Time Running Out

As soon as we wake up, we remember everyone and everything we have a relationship with. Similarly, by coming in touch with the Lord through his devotees, we have now woken up from our slumber of ignorance and have been reminded of our relationship with God. In every other life, we had so many relationships; the only one missing was with God. But now, despite getting a human birth, even after being woken up, if we don't genuinely take shelter of God, then we willfully commit suicide. Time is running out; we must take shelter of God - now.

  6. Amazing we need to have sense of urgency to achieve this. Radhanath Swami is to the point when it comes to sense of urgency without which there is lack of commitment in spiritual life,

  9. Very sobering statement--having been given a human birth and not cultivating our relationship with God is like wilfully commiting suicide!

  10. Either make time your friend and use it properly or neglect it and make it your enemy! As Radhanath Swami says, the time is now!

  15. It is only because of compassionate devotees such as Radhanath Swami and his students that people in modern society, who have no time to sit back and think where they are going, get reminded of the primary purpose of human life.

  23. In spite of being surrounded by loving devotees, devotional books, beautiful deities and a spiritual environment we become very complacent. Thank you Radhanath Swami Maharaj for reminding us of the importance of time used in Lord Krishna's service..
