How to the mercy of Lord Sri Krsna

[Guest guest]

Hare Krsna deare devotees please accept my humble obeisances, all glories

to our Gurumaharaja and Srila Prabhupada.

 

If even the enemies of the Lord achieve salvation by constantly thinking

about the Lord, what is to be said of pure devotees who always engage in the

Lord's service and who think of nothing but the Lord in every activity? "A

person who is very faithfully engaged in the worship of the Deity in the

temple but does not know how to behave toward devotees or people in general

is called a prakrta-bhakta, or kanistha-adhikari.

 

Yogis and jnanis practice in many ways to conquer the senses, but the

bhakta immediately attains the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead

through the mercy of the spiritual master. Yasya prasadad bhagavat-prasado.

 

If the spiritual master is favorably inclined, one naturally receives the

mercy of the Supreme Lord, and by the mercy of the Supreme Lord one

immediately becomes transcendental, conquering all the influences of

sattva-guna, rajo-guna and tamo-guna within this material world. This is

confirmed in Bhagavad-gita (sa gunan samatityaitan brahma-bhuyaya kalpate).

 

If one is a pure devotee acting under the directions of the guru, one

easily gets the mercy of the Supreme Lord and thus becomes immediately

situated on the transcendental platform.

 

A bhakta has no desire. Sarvopadhi-vinirmuktam tat-paratvena nirmalam. He

is purified and free from material desires.

Krsna is dina-anukampana: He is very merciful to everyone.

 

Kasyapa Muni saw that his wife, Aditi, had some material desires for the

welfare of her sons, but still he advised her to render devotional service

to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, everyone, regardless

of whether he is a karmi, jnani, yogi or bhakta, should invariably take

shelter of the lotus feet of Vasudeva and render transcendental loving

service unto Him so that all his desires will be duly fulfilled.

 

Krsna is dina-anukampana: He is very merciful to everyone. Therefore if one

wants to fulfill his material desires, Krsna helps him.
