Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Krsna may be seen everywhere by persons who have not obtained the salve of love, yet aspire to do so. Krsna directs such persons to see Him through His directions in sastra. Krsna can be seen everywhere by persons familiar with the many sastric examples of how His immanence within the creation can be perceived in everyday experiences: as the taste of water, the light of the sun and moon, the ability in man, and so on. Sastra also reveals that Krsna is present in every living being's heart and advises that a devotee thus see Him in every living being. Further, a devotee can see Krsna's hand in everything by becoming familiar with the workings of the universe as described in sastra: that Krsna is the supreme controller and that nothing happens without his sanction, and by perceiving in practical life the effects of the three modes as described in sastra. Similarly, one can bring Krsna consciousness to every aspect of life by relating everyday incidents to similar ones described in sastra (for instance if one person pledges to help another but is later unwilling, this could be compared to Sugriva's apparent reluctance to extend aid promised to Rama).
