Giriraj Swami addressed devotees, friends, and students from California State University, Channel Islands.
“Somehow or other, come to Krishna, come to God. He is known by different names in different cultures, and they all refer to the same Supreme. But the beauty of Krishna consciousness is there is more information, more detail. Any bona fide religion will say that you should love God and that such love is the goal of life. But if you ask them who is God, they don’t have a clear conception—and how can you really love someone if you don’t know the person? Our study of the Vedic literature begins with the Bhagavad-gita, and then there are other books with even more detail. By reading them, you can learn about how kind, merciful, and loving God is, and you can develop your personal relationship with Him. It is also a service to God to help others come to Him.”
