Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Hare Krishna, The key factor is 'saranagathi' (seeking shelter in Krishna) . By doing so, one becomes Krishna's instrument . Thereafter, Krishna (who is dwelling as 'Paramatma' within the heart of each living being ) , will perform the deeds on the behalf of His surrendered devotee. This will continue until the devotee falls down from Krishna due to 'false ego' . Any person who considers himself to be the 'doer' of activities and proud of his achievements in life, in reality is a 'fallen soul' . Such a person can not become Krishna's instrument . Whatever he achieves in this life, are the benefits of his meritorious deeds in the previous birth(s) . Vedic scriptures like Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita are literary incarnations of Krishna . They have the potential to function as 'Guru' to a person who has qualified to become Krishna's instrument.

One has to realize that the Lord is the life that lives and the light that shines in everything. When he realizes this, he loses his dependence on externals and finds BLISS in himself.====The Upanishads ====Jai Shree Krishna !Krishnanujan for Good Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
