HARE KRISHNA!
We all do believe that total unconditional surrender unto the lotus feet of our dearest creator, our one and only Lord Sri Krishna can redeem each one of us of our karmic past, present and even the unseen unknown future. Whilst we keep using the term "UNCONDITIONAL" we need to pause a bit and ponder what does this very important word means in the true sense. To my mind, "UNCONDITIONAL" means with zero expectations, 100% pure faith , trust and belief in our dearest Lord Sri Krishna with not even once feeling in doubt of any of the actions and reactions of our life, total purest devotional surrender with the highest faith in the ways of our dearest Sri Krishna. Example suppose we have taken to the path of Lord Sri Krishna consciousness, no matter at any stage of devotion whether the first or the highest, we have to not take even a single effort to ensure and conclude that all that is happening should be only the very best , we need to only put in our very best and not expect that the best should be the result , there are many times in our life, we pray , wish and also work very hard towards a noble cause but despite the best efforts nothing materializes , in that situation we need not be despondent or lost, just move on for our dearest Sri Krishna has so ordained , so be it. Even in the case, where we are trying our level best to please our lord , there are times when we are not able to despite our best intentions, so be it, just move on, our dearest lord has ordained. In short , we need to perform our actions in a very pure noble manner, the outcome, the action, the doer is our most beloved Lord Sri Krishna so he knows the very best for us , let us learn to trust him wholeheartedly with the purest devotion, let us surrender unto his will, ,let us not even in the spiritual path aspire for perfection, for everything is ordained by him, let us love him, shower our countless praises on him, he will lead us , let us not at any time feel that everything in our life has to be picture perfect and that we have to always move as per our great plans, in life what we think, do and what happens could be totally different (man proposes our dearest god disposes), let us surrender ourselves totally unto him, let each one of us celebrate our imperfections, our weaknesses, our lowest state of existence, our frailest moments for it these imperfections which draws us closer to our most beloved Lord Sri Krishna and makes us realize that we are totally dependent on his mercies, his grace and benediction and we need to approach him in the lowest of low stage for it is from here we can gauge his height which is beyond the realms of the three worlds, his compassion which is beyond life itself so let us reverentially bow our heads in the most humble reverence, raise both our hands upwards and with the deepest love for our most beloved Lord Sri Krishna chant countless times "HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE HARE RAAMA HARE RAAMA RAAMA RAAMA HARE HARE."
