Radhanath Swami on The Fog of Illusion

The soul is resplendent and effulgent. It radiates love for everyone and everything indiscriminately. It sees everything in its relationship with the Lord. Within every soul is love for God. Why then do we see the world in terms of friends and enemies? Why do we have conflicts amongst each other? Why, if the soul actually radiates love for all by loving God, is there envy? Its only because of the illusion which makes the soul think of itself to be something it isn’t. This illusion is the fog that smothers the effulgent soul.

  14. Very true. Radhanath Swami has focussed on an important topic of illusion. Due to this illusion only we keep on getting attached to the material objects with the false assumptions that the happiness derived out of such objects is flickering.

  16. It is so rightly said that illusion overshadows all the right and things that are really for our good. Only a spiritual teacher like him can teach his students the right process to get rid of this illusion and revive the original nature of the soul.
