Don't Be a Fool

Whatever you do, do not waste your human life in the foolish pursuit of material sense gratification. Instead you should focus your energies for achieving the supreme perfection of existence by regaining your original, eternally blissful, fearless identity as a loving servant of the dazzlingly splendorous Supreme Personality of Godhead in His amazingly wondrous transcendental abode in the spiritual sky. That supramundane realm is complete devoid of anxiety and is full of unlimited varieties of pleasing, loving relationships.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:

Question: Were All Souls Originally With Krishna?

Were all we souls originally with Krishna in His highest abode? Say a devotee makes it back to Godhead, does he have a chance of falling down again? Or, were we never originally with Krishna in His highest abode and that's our final destination without the risk of falling down? Thank you for your time.

Answer: Yes

All of us here in this material world were originally with Krishna in the spiritual world serving Him as His devotees. By misuse of our minute independence we fell down into the cycle of birth and death. Just as it is sometimes said, "Once burned, twice shy," if we realize our mistake and go back to Godhead, we will not make the same mistake twice. Of course, since we have free will eternally we could fall a second time. But who would stick their hand in the fire a second time after already being burned once?
