Question to His Grace Sankarshan Das Adhikari: While doing Hare Krishna chanting on japa beads, I feel immersed in the name of Lord Krishna and become oblivious to my surroundings. However I feel incomplete that I am only chanting the name of Krishna but not seeing Him. My question as a very low level soul is, "Do enlightened souls see Krishna?" Can you please tell me your experience? | |||||

Answer: "They see very minute" Hearing with your ears is another form of seeing. And it is more important than seeing with your eyes. When you see the sun with your eyes it looks like a small disk that you can cover with your thumb. But when you see the sun with your ears by hearing from an authority you can know that it is much, much bigger than the earth. All Glories to Krishna Sankritana! All Glories to Prabhupada! |

It is true that first of all Krishna is seen by our ears, not eyes. But it doesn't end there. One who has realized that Krishna and His name are not different will soon be able to see His form also by his pure chanting. Krishna personally presents Himself before the vision of a highly advanced devotee.
