Radhanath Swami on The Focus of Our Lives

Ignorance is to make the goal in life that which is temporary. And those who live by truth aspire for that which is ever-lasting, eternal. We are eternal, God is eternal and our relationship with God is eternal. That quest for eternal truth, that quest for ecstatic love which is dormant within us should be the prominent focus of our lives. And all of our occupational responsibilities, domestic needs, they should all be harmonized to fulfill that aim of life because death is inevitable. At the time of death, everything except whatever cultivation of spiritual consciousness we have attained is taken away.

    At the time of death, nothing else remains except for the spiritual advancement we have made in life.

    Yes, the only tangible gain of our lives is the spiritual advancement we have made which is credited to our eternal bank account!

    Ignorance never helps anyone. Seeking truthful life is the way of intelligence. Association of True devotee expels ignorance. All glories to HH Radhanatha Swami Maharaja.
