HARE KRISHNA,
WHAT IS LORD SRI KRISHNA CONSCIOUSNESS? To my mind, it is one of the most divine process when the mind wholeheartedly accepts that our most beloved Lord Sri Krishna is the creator of the entire cosmos and the mind and the physical body in its full capacity performs each of the action, the most inconsequential too, with total surrender unto the lotus feet of lord Sri Krishna as a natural effortless process to thank our creator for all what he is gifted us with, for none of the joys can be enjoyed if not ordained by our lord. It is counting each of our blessings.
The next question that could probably be in few of our minds is can't we wait to love our lord, isn't it too early to spend our time in his devotion, we still have a long way to go why hurry to start chanting his divine glories? It is our prime duty not only for ourselves but also instil in each of our loved ones to start Lord Sri Krishna consciousness right before the birth of a child when it is still in the womb. Prahalada's mother did the same and we all know the divine child's love for Lord Narayana and how amazingly our lord protected the child at every moment. As our father of nation Mahatma Gandhiji mentioned that a person's character is almost finalized by the age of five for the observations, practice, development of beliefs , the various impressions, are finely captured , imbibed and instilled as early as five and then it becomes very difficult to change our way of life, not impossible but very tough. All the great saints have conveyed that nurturing our children from a very small age to mould themselves into the love for our most loved Lord Sri Krishna, having a staunch faith in the goodness of mankind, a heart that dances to the tunes of our creator's music, practising compassion, truth, honesty , integrity all these noble values have to be inculcated from a very young impressionable age for Lord Sri Krishna consciousness is the foundation of life under which the entire fantastic edifice is built. The strength of the foundation determines the longevity of the structure and hence it is a duty of every one of us to ensure our children love our lord , know his message, understand the importance of prayers, gauge the significance of paying their respects to our creator, living a noble life is the only way that can ensure that they succeed in life. Sri Krishna consciousness is not renunciation, nor is it taking to sainthood , it is a way of life itself, it is a beacon light to each one of us to guide us to reach our respective destination and that is attaining the grace, love, blessings and benediction of our Lord Sri Krishna.
In the midst of calamity, cacophony, noise and sound, we need to make our young children understand the importance of leading a pure life in the service of mankind and also our creator. Ambitions, material comfort automatically follows one need not aspire for them for our Lord Sri Krishna himself bestows the very best on all his devotees and hence if any one of us feel that loving our lord means deprivation , sacrifice one need to change our views , for Lord Sri Krishna consciousness is enjoying the very best of material comforts , but with a total surrender to the lord thanking him that all that is enjoyed is due to his divine grace and all that is earned is in a very righteous manner, so let each one of us not postpone to immerse our selves into Sri Krishna consciousness for our old age , let us instil in our new born the art of loving our lord at a very tender age for when they reach their prime time they would be able to walk the path of truth and light and be able to face the various vagaries of life more confidently and ensure that our world is a most peaceful place with zero hatred, zero negativities and above all zero conflicts.
