Speaking on New Year!
* Krishna says Time I am. How powerful this time is. Our bodies turn into dust, great great mountains become dried up. What to speak of you and me.
* For a devotee, he is one year closer to Krishna, for a non-devotee, he is one year closer to death.
* So many of our acharya's are Grhastha's. Eg: Srila Bhakti-Vinoda Thakur. So meticulously used his time for Krishna, although a father to 10 children
* Choice is definitely ours. We should see what we want. If we keep Krishna in the center of our life, and work accordingly, then everything will fall into place.
* Story of Kailash. Narada muni, Kailash saying that he will come after 1 child, etc.
Moral: We have so many attachments, unlimited. We don't have one thousandth of an attachment to Krishna.
* Mountains are being powdered. Time is powerful. That's why we should make a resolution today. Of becoming serious and sincere. This year, Yes I will try to
- develop faith in Holy name
- serve all vaishnavas
- definitely check anger, greed
- definitely complete reading these books
* Then we are one year closer to Krishna. If not, we are one year closer death. Choice is ours.
* Srila Prabhupada says, if we genuinely take to this Krishna Consciousness path, take shelter of Krishna, then He will protect and help us in this.
* How much responsibility you shoulder will determine our progress in Krishna Consciousness this year.
