Diving into the Ocean of Bliss

In Sydney there are unlimited opportunities for diving into the ocean of unlimited bliss by sharing the bliss of Krishna consciousness with others. There is such a huge community of sincere souls here who are eager to advance themselves along the path of Krishna bhakti that I could easily be giving thirty lectures a week in the Sydney area, if I only had the time to squeeze them all in. With such a strong demand we are now thinking how we can come to Australia twice a year instead of once a year.

Why is Krishna consciousness so unlimitedly blissful? The reason is that it reconnects us with our original, natural, pure state of consciousness which is eternal, full of knowledge, and full of bliss. One does not need to add anything to one's consciousness to be unlimitedly blissful. One simply has to remove all the clutter that has been imposed upon it by the materialistic society.

Question: Extroverts and Introverts

Please clarify:

There are two kinds of humans in the world: introverts and extroverts. As much as I know introverts like to live a reserved life without bothering for external matters of the world. They mind their own business and do not interfere in outside matters. On the other side, extroverts like to mix with more and more people and take much interest in external matters also other than their personal matters.

I have been more an introvert type of person and I feel happy with this kind of life only. But many people who could not understand my way of living used to say that there is something wrong with my mindset. Even my teachers in schooldays, my guardians, etc. used to consider me a mentally ill person. Now I am 28 years old. I am working in an engineering company since the last 6 years. Now people have started feeling that there is nothing wrong with me but it is just a kind of nature of introverted people.

According to you, is an introvert type of person a mentally ill person? If an introvert person is fulfilling all of his worldly duties, has no disputes with anyone and happy with his life, then what is wrong with it? And even then if some people misunderstand him, then how should he handle them?

Answer: Just Be A Devotee

Extroverts and introverts are both good if they are devotees of Krishna. And they are both bad if they are not devotees of Krishna. We are not concerned whether someone is an introvert or an extrovert. We simply want to see that everyone is a devotee of Krishna.

The pure devotee is the topmost extrovert and topmost introvert both at the same time. He is relishing the sweetest happiness within himself at every minute without any dependence on outside circumstances. And at the same because of his intense compassion upon the fallen, conditioned souls, he is trying to bring about a spiritual revolution to save the suffering humanity from the clutches of birth and death.
