Hare KrishnaSri Krsna tells Arjuna:sukham atyantikam yat tadbuddhi-grahyam atindriyamvetti yatra na caivayamsthitas calati tattvatah"In that joyous state (samadhi), one is situated in boundless transcendentalhappiness and enjoys himself through transcendental senses. Established thus,one never departs from the truth." (Bg. 6.21)This verse is very powerful and contains the essence of KC in it.We human beings experience materialistic happiness through our five senses and feel that is the only real and ultimate happiness.All of us use the five senses in mundane ways like ,Movies ,Money gain ,Fashion ,attracting opposite sex,eating heavy meals ,addiction to liquor ,spending time in making fun of good people ,gossips,spreading rumors etc etc ...For Example : We go to movie ,thinking am going to enjoy the story ,graphics ,look at other externally beautiful people,talk on mundane subjects with friends.This will last only for those few hours and the next morning ,we are brought back to the original world ,where we are subjected to constant worries.Yet again and again we perform this foolish act.Our Sweet Lord says here about the eternal happiness.The real happiness arises ,when we control our senses and have a LOVING Relationship with him.The JOY ,BLISS ,PEACE created out of such LOVE Dealings is eternal ,is powerful ,is supreme.And the most interesting fact is ,since this Happiness is Supreme ,once you feel it ,it makes us realize that Temporary Happiness created out of Mundane use of our senses as a futile exercise.The best ,quick ,easy way to attain this happiness is just CHANT the HOLY Name of the GOD ,that is the MAHAMANTRA :"HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HAREHARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE"Chant this Mantra anytime ,anywhere ,we can all be sure to feel the BLISS.By this we are using the senses in service of the Lord.Jai Srila Phrabhupada.
