Inner Calling !!

Hare Krishna Mudit Prabhu, please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Thank You for Your meaning full question!

Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita that first one should become peaceful in order to start spiritual journey. And real peace comes when one has basic knowledge of that i am soul not this mortal body.

I am not a man, woman, girl, boy...i am a servant of God.

Srila Prabhupada says that living entity when he comes to this world first he goes through all lower species of lives. As like goes through 9 million aquatic forms, then 2 million plants forms, then insects then higher animals then only human body but not intelligent but later he is give intelligent human body.

Animals, plants do not have right to change the destiny they go according to instincts but human can change.

There are 4 types of miseries:

1. birth

2. disease

3. old age

4. death.

So in human body one has to solve these 4 problems or else he will be again put into higher or lower species of lives and the again struggle for billions of years.

So where might be a question of other goals rather than this?

Our goal should be to leave this samsara of birth and death and attain our real home where there is no death and birth. And that process is great which helps us to achieve that goal.

=============

Inner calling which You say might be the call of Paramatma - Super soul. He always speaks to us and guides us but because we are too much observed with external things we can not hear Him. We are too busy with satisfying our bold senses because of that subtle things are unheard-able to us.

In order to hear that call we have to follow 4 regulative principles and purify our mind chanting Hare Krishna attentively.

For good chanting we need 3 things:

1. good pronunciation

2. posture of sitting

3. the speed of chanting

And when we do these properly we will be able to keep our mind on the Holy Names which means every hear Them. And our only duty is only to hear each word. Other things are done by the Holy Name.

Your servant,
