By Hridaya Caitanya Prabhu
We’re spirits inside material bodies. If we do something about our own spiritual life—like find out who we really are and what we’re meant to do—life can only improve. We generally prefer consciousness to unconsciousness, except during surgery. Putting zero effort into finding our true identity and purpose while keeping our bodies and minds pleasantly occupied is like always stopping for gas but never eating. What good is keeping our car’s fuel tank full if we’re starving? How can we have a balanced spiritual diet, though, with all the stuff we have to do?

Srila Prabhupada always maintained that it was perfectly possible to balance both spiritual and material lives by contributing fifty per cent of ones income towards ISKCON. This would sustain the pure spiritual activities of ISKCON and enable the 50-50 to partake of pure spiritual bliss which is significantly more than sheer material pleasure.Hare Krsna!!!
