Thought Of The Day

So this Krsna consciousness movement is to know that no more greater than Krsna. Nobody is greater than Krsna. Nobody is equal to Krsna. If we understand this much perfectly... We cannot understand perfectly because that is not possible. Krsna is unlimited. But as far as we have got our knowledge, if we understand this fact, that "I can never become equal with Krsna; neither I can become greater than Krsna. That is not possible. I have to remain always subordinate to Krsna," this is called mukti, liberation. We are entrapped in this material bondage by illusory understanding. So when we come to the right understanding, that "My position is always subordinate to Krsna," that is called mukti. Anyone can become a mukta, liberated person, as soon as he agrees to this philosophy that he is always subordinate to Krsna, or God; he is never equal to Him nor greater than Him. Asama-urdhva. And those who are thinking that they are equal with Krsna, that is maya. Maya mohitam nabhijanati. They do not know their actual... But when he comes to the knowledge, vasudevah sarvam iti sa mahatma sudurlabhah... [Bg. 7.19]. That is required.
