  Pranam Dearest Devotee. Hare Krishna.

  May you receive transcendental blessings, grace and mercy from

  the God of Gods, the Indestructible Lord, the Knower of everything,

  the Lord of Immeasurable Power, the Supreme Personality of

  Godhead, Lord Krishna. The stage in which the consciousness of

  the living entity is attracted by the three modes of material

  nature is called conditional life. But when that same consciousness

  is attached to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is situated

  in the consciousness of liberation. When one is completely cleansed

  of the impurities of lust and greed produced from the false

  identification of the body as "I" and bodily possessions as "mine",

  one`s mind becomes purified. In that pure state he transcends the

  stage of so-called material happiness and pleasure. At that time

  the soul can see himself to be transcendental to material

  existence and always self-effulgent, never fragmented, although

  very minute in size. In that position of self-realization, by practice

  of knowledge and renunciation in devotional service, one sees

  everything in the right perspective. He becomes indifferent to

  material existence, and the material influence acts less powerfully

  upon him. Perfection in self-realization cannot be attained by any

  kind of yogi unless he engages in devotional service to the

  Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna, for that is the

  only auspicious path. In association of pure devotees, discussion

  of the pastimes and activities of the Supreme Personality of

  Godhead is very pleasing and satisfying to the ear and the heart.

  By cultivating such knowledge one gradually becomes advanced

  on the path of liberation, and thereafter he is freed, and his

  attraction becomes fixed. Then real devotion and devotional

  service begin. With love and best wishes, take care, bye.
