Posted by Sheetal Vishwakarma on February 17, 2014 at 3:49pm in Reading

PRAMHO!!!!!!

There are five ways to serve the God

1. Be a devotee in a passive state;
2. Be a devotee in an active state;
3.  Be a devotee as a friend;
4. Be a devotee as a parent;
5. Be a devotee as a conjugal lover

My question is that how we serve Lord Krishna in Active State and Passive state?

Please help me to understand

Hare Krishna

    Hare Krsna Mataji,

    PAMHO.

    Passive state means - we accept that there is God, we accept that Krsna is that God and we pray to Him with love and devotion.

    Active state is - one step further. We serve Him as servant. Dasya Bhava - we think of ourselves as servant of the lord and serve Him accordingly.

    Haribol,

    Your servant,

    Rashmi
