Thought Of The Day

So this is the profit of Krsna conscious person. Krsna is so attractive that if anyone only once has fully applied his mind in thinking of Krsna and surrendering, then he becomes immediately saved from all miserable condition of this material life. So that is our perfection of life. Somehow or other, we surrender to the lotus feet of Krsna. So here it is stressed, sakrt. Sakrt means "only once." So if so much profit is there simply once thinking of Krsna, then we can imagine, those who are always engaged in thinking of Krsna by chanting the Hare Krsna mantra, what is their position. They are very safe. So this is the safest position. Otherwise this material world is full of danger. It is dangerous place. It is said in the Bhagavad-gita, duhkhalayam. It is the place of miseries. You cannot become happy in a place which is meant for miseries. That we have to understand. Krsna says, the Supreme Personality, that duhkhalayam asasvatam: [Bg. 8.15] this material world is place of miserable condition. And that also asasvatam, not permanent. You cannot stay. Even if you make a compromise that "Never mind it is place of misery.
