You Are the Architect of Your Own Destiny

Instead of being tossed eternally in the waves of karma you can take control of your destiny and liberate yourself from the wheel of birth and death. Why remain a puppet in the hands of Mayadevi when you can instead be a liberated soul? The choice is yours: sink or swim. If you will take shelter of the Supreme Lord, this will be your last birth in this problematic material world. You will enter into the sublime realm known as Goloka Vrindavan where at this very minute Lord Sri Krishna is eagerly awaiting your return.

Krishna Wants You Back in the Spiritual World

Answers by Citing the Vedic Version:

Question: How to Convince Materialistic People?

My Dear Gurudeva,

When ever I try to preach Krishna consciousness to mundane people they say although the things are temporary still they will have happy memories about the past. They say that although the family relationships, friendship etc. are temporary they will have happy memories spent with family and friends in the future and hence they will remain happy till the time of death by remembering those memories spent with family and friends. What can I tell them?

Vrutant S.

Answer: You Be Convinced.

The first point in convincing others of Krishna consciousness is that you must be fully convinced that is the only way that someone can be truly happy. If you do not have this solid conviction, it will not be possible for you to convince others. And if you do have this conviction, you will be able to convince the entire world.

Temporary pleasures have anxiety built into them because the enjoyer knows deep within his heart that they are temporary. Therefore they are not pure enjoyment. They are enjoyment mixed with suffering. Our philosophy is: Why should we take enjoyment mixed with suffering when we can instead get pure enjoyment without even the slightest tinge of misery?
