When you join with Kṛṣṇa in His rāsa dance as gopīs, or as cowherds boy, play with Him, or become His father and mother, Yaśodā, Nanda Mahārāja, Yaśodā-rāṇī, or His..., become servant, or even become like water, Yamunā, or land in Vṛndāvana and trees or fruits or flowers, any way, or cows and calves... Join with Kṛṣṇa. Then you get ānanda, real ānanda. Ānandamayo 'bhyāsāt (Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12). Sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha (Bs. 5.1). That is the description in all Bhāgavatam, how the Kṛṣṇa's associates are enjoying life. Kṛta-puṇya-puñjāḥ (SB 10.12.11). Śukadeva Gosvāmī said, 'These boys who are playing with Kṛṣṇa, oh, they are not ordinary boys'. Kṛta-puṇya-puñjāḥ: 'They have amassed the effects of pious activities for millions and trillions of births. Now they have come to play with Kṛṣṇa'. So that opportunity is there in bhakti-yoga. Kṛṣṇa is anxious to take you back. Why you are wasting time, economic development?" |
