The greatest pleasure of a devotee is to place his head at the feet of Krishna and His devotee – I am your servant eternally. Those who like this idea…very nice…those who do not like this idea…very nice. That is our conviction. Everything is very nice. Whether they stone you…very nice…whether they throw flowers upon you…very nice. When I am in India people put garlands on me…when I am in campus in America, people throw tomatoes, eggs, water, buckets of water, apples, potatoes, stool, urine…so many variety of things I am offered when I am chanting Hare Krishna. What the acharyas are teaching us is to receive them all in such a way that it is very nice. They throw stool ,urine and stones at you…very nice…Krishna is reciprocating and if they throw garlands…yes this is for Krishna also. Whatever our occupation is understand that our fulfillment of life’s desires is only when Krishna is pleased. Let us aspire only for this – His eternal loving service. Thank you very much. Hare Krishna

ReplyDeleteA very tough thing to do for any normal person in this world. Only some one connected deeply to the Spiritual plane can take everything that comes as mercy of God and be happy with.
ReplyDeleteWe have hopes that by the guidance, inspiration and blessing of a saint like Radhanath Swami we can try to cultivate this attitude to the best of our capacity
We should take everything that comes in our life positively tells Radhanath Swami and strive to please God and His devotees
