4 defects of the Conditioned Soul!

Verse 1.14.4 (Yugal Kishore Prji):

* So Arjuna went to Dwaraka just to find out what to do next. In between, Maharaj Yudhistira was observing disparities in the world.
* America is foremost in material progress, but still so many natural disasters, so many problems, why? Animal killing and more other vices causes all these.
* As conditioned souls, we have 4 imperfections
- we make mistakes
- we have imperfect senses
- we get illusioned
- we try to cheat others
* Even in devotee circles, we try to cheat. Instead of being honest, we try to be a hypocrite. That will result in no happiness, just leading to quarrels
- even between father and son, brothers, husband and wife
- cause we try to control
- best thing is, leave it to Krishna!
- problem comes when we try to control others and others try to control us
* Story, festival celebrated in Melkhote
- Sridevi and Bhudevi, they go home. Supreme Lord asks the pujari, have they come back. No, then He things they are not respecting Him. He becomes angry, starts galloping away
- mediator is pujari, namallawar.
- on the way, they cross each other, He doesn't look at them....
- so the difference of opinion is also there in the spiritual world, but for the pleasure of the Lord.
* So problem is control others for enjoying
- Solution is: be Krishna Conscious
- with Krishna in the center, become servant of servant of the servant of the Lord.
* By being in this way, automatically peace comes in.
* So seeing all these disparities in the world, MY is conjecturing that the Supreme Lord has left the world.
