sruti-smrti-puranadi- pancaratra-vidhim vina

aikantiki harer bhaktir utpatayaiva kalpate

 

"Devotional service of the Lord that ignores the authorized Vedic

literatures like the Upanisads, Puranas, Narada-pancaratra, etc., is simply

an unnecessary disturbance in society."

 

It is not possible for the Brahman-realized impersonalist or the

Paramatma-realized yogi to understand Krsna the Supreme Personality of

Godhead as the son of mother Yasoda or the charioteer of Arjuna. Even the

great demigods are sometimes confused about Krsna (muhyanti yat surayah).

Mam tu veda na kascana: "No one knows Me as I am," the Lord says.

And if one does know Him, then sa mahatma su-durlabhah. "Such a great soul

is very rare."

 

Therefore unless one practices devotional service to the Lord, he cannot

know Krsna as He is (tattvatah), even though one is a great scholar or

philosopher. Only the pure devotees can know something of the inconceivable

transcendental qualities in Krsna, in the cause of all causes, in His

omnipotence and opulence, and in His wealth, fame, strength, beauty,

knowledge and renunciation, because Krsna is benevolently inclined to His

devotees. He is the last word in Brahman realization, and the devotees alone

can realize Him as He is. Therefore it is said:

 

atah sri-krsna-namadi na bhaved grahyam indriyaih

sevonmukhe hi jihvadau svayam eva sphuraty adah

 

"No one can understand Krsna as He is by the blunt material senses. But

He reveals Himself to the devotees, being pleased with them for their

transcendental loving service unto Him." (Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu 1.2.234)

 

Srila Prabhupada ki jay !!!!!!!
