Question: What is Perfection?Namaste. What is perfection? How can it be achieved? I have so many friends who say, "I'm not perfect and never will be." What a sad and sorry fate. With this attitude, what is there to look forward to? Thank you for caring so much and for helping people change their lives for the better.Love always,Hare Krishna.Answer: Being Restored to Our Original State of ConsciousnessJust as rain water is pure but becomes muddied by mixing with the earth when it falls to the ground, similarly our original perfect state of consciousness becomes polluted by contact with the material atmosphere. And just as contaminants can be filtered out of polluted water to restore it to its original pure state, similarly our polluted consciousness can be restored to its original perfectly pure state by the filtering process known as the bhakti yoga system.Those who have a defeatist attitude will indeed always remained defeated because they have relegated themselves by their attitude to the position of perpetually being defeated. And those who are willing to bravely throw off their conditioning of bodily consciousness and take shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Sri Krishna, will be rewarded with liberation from all material miseries.Hare Krishna Hare KrishnaFor more discussions visithttp://harekrishnaharekrishna.ning.com/forum/
