Protection of the Lord!

Verse 1.14.32-33 (Srinivas Acharya Prji):

* The constant companions of Lord Krsna, such as Uddhava, are all liberated souls, and they descended along with Lord Krsna to this material world to fulfill the mission of the Lord.
* All these devotees are always under the supreme protection and internal energy of the Lord.
* Eg: Pandavas, are eternally liberated souls. Arjuna's war with the Kurus at the end of their incognito time, is an example too.
- Same Arjuna, in Kurukshetra, the Lord withdraws the protection for a moment, then gives the BG.
* So when the soul looks to see to itself, then Krishna puts the soul into a material body for us to enjoy. But there is suffering only here.
* And Krishna comes to this material world again and again to attract these conditioned souls. Because He wants us to come to back to Him.
* And those who have taken DS as their means for purification, they are always protected by the Lord.
- so the dependence of the jiva on the Supreme Lord is always the best
* Another pt: difference between jiva tattva and vishnu tattva
- vishnu tattva remembers all, while jiva tattva often forget their causes and reactions
* Those who give up this protection of the Lord, will come back to this material world, even after prolonged tapasya of the severest type.
* The only way is: by chanting the holy name, serving devotees and being in KC.
