SERVING THE SERVANTS OF LORD KRISHNA
Finally I am writing again. It’s
been so long I haven't posted anything. What excuse can I give? I am not able
to do anything properly as I want to do so many things at a time. I am
just crazy. hehe. I am trying to make myself understand that do one thing at a
time and try to give it your best. I know Krishna is going to teach me this
also in some way. Sometimes it scares me. lol. But I also love getting chastised
by Krishna. I am happy feeling His presence around me no matter in what way He does
so :)
So let’s come to the topic now
"Serving the servants of Lord Krishna". It sounds different but this
is the best way to please Krishna. I personally have experienced this. Firstly,
what is the need to serve? It is simply because we are servants by nature. Srila
Prabhupada says that we are always serving our senses or family or friends or office
or pets. All the time we are serving. Do you think serving anything I mentioned
before can fulfil the purpose of our life? I personally don’t think so. So, the
question is who or what should we serve so that the purpose of our life is fulfilled.
Of course KRISHNA, hehe. He is the source of everything. Whatever we have,
whatever we see, whatever we can’t see, we ourselves belongs to Him only. He is
the sole proprietor. We are using His property to please ourselves like a
thief. How long can a thief enjoy things which belong to others? Not for long.
At the end he will suffer. How justified it is to take credits and benefits for
those things which are the result of someone else’s hard work and
determination? That thief is bound to suffer. Similarly we are also bound to
suffer as we are stealing Krishna property all the time. Krishna is not going
to punish us for using His property as He loves us a lot and He is so merciful.
We get punished because we are not perfect. No matter how alert we become we
will make mistakes and of course we are using Krishna’s property and exploiting it to the extent that it cannot be recovered in coming future. So, we are only
punishing ourselves. We are the culprits. To solve this problem we must thank Krishna
for what He has given to us. We must serve Him everything before using it for
ourselves. Only He can protect us and make us immune to the results of our
unintentional mistakes.
Though we can directly serve
Krishna but it is very hard to please Him this way. Yes it is. Krishna takes
lot of tests. He will test you so much that at times you will start thinking if He really
loves you or not. But yes He loves you. Never have any doubt about it. But His
ways are different as always. There is an easy way to please Krishna. It’s a secret
I am disclosing here. Hehe. Actually Srila Prabhupada has already spoken about
it in His books but not many are aware of it. Secret is that Krishna gets even more pleased
when He sees someone serving His devotees. It gives Him immense pleasure and His
devotees are very compassionate. If we are going to serve Radharani, who is the
true lover of Krishna, She is going to accept us immediately that to with our
limitless faults and will also ask Krishna to accept us and love us.
We can serve any of His servants
like right now I am serving you by sharing this information about Krishna with
you. I hope it pleases Krishna :) Krishna loves His devotees immensely so when
someone serves His devotee He starts loving that person even more. He will take
special care of that person. We must serve His devotees, His creation because
service makes us calm, humble, selfless and helps us in getting detached with
our false ego which is most important. When we get attached to our ego, we try
to satisfy it. If we are unable to do so we become angry, unstable,
dissatisfied, selfish, judgmental, and greedy. I mean all the negative
qualities are attached with our false ego. So to overcome it we must serve
Krishna’s devotees and this way we will serve Krishna also. Be prepare to do
the things which are beyond your capacity, hehe, How can anyone do something
which is beyond one's capacity? Answer is Krishna. He will make you go nuts, He
knows how to make you do what He wants you to do but only when you ask Him for
His Love and devotion. So start serving the servants of Krishna and get more
and more love from Him. May Radharani bless you with Krishna’s and her love always
:)
