Eyes anointed with love, only can see Krishna!

Verse 1.3.4: "Premanjana churitha.... govindam adi purusam tamaham bhajami", Krishna is the supreme spirit and our matarial vision cannot see His transcendental form. We need to have eyes anointed with love, devotional service. Krishna says, only a devotee can know Me who I am. This is not easy, devotional service is not so easy. Bhakti is actually equivalent to all sacrifices, austerities.

This is Karthik month. If we offer morning and evening, ghee lamps to Krishna with devotion, it is very very auspicious. The mood is completely dominated by love. Mother Yasoda always thinks that Krishna cannot live without her protection. That is her love dominates all the real facts happening. Same is with all the gopi's.

But in Vaikunta, the mood is dominated by the aishwarya bhav. That's why the residents of Vaikunta knew Narayana as God, and they offer prayers. But the residents of Goloka dham do not know that Krishna is God, thats why their always want to protect Krishna. Thats why we want to be there to serve unconditionally, in Vraja bhakti.

And this is provided to us by Srila Prabhupada. That's why we should be so indebted to our previous acharya's. Srila Prabhupada has been given this facility of bringing anyone to the spiritual world, by Caitanya Mahaprabhu and by Krishna. That's why we need to utilize this facility. Anyone who does not use this is actually by himself taking poison.
