Getting To Know God

So, let us surrender to Him, unite our interests to His people, our will to his, renew the bond that unites us to Him and serve Him with love and devotion, that is our eternal duty. To serve Krishna with love and devotion is the manifestation of love for God, and the perfection of existence.

Krishna, the Supreme Eternal says:

“Only by devotional service, and only thus, can one know Me as I am. And the being who, by such devotion, becomes fully conscious of My Person, can then enter My absolute kingdom.”

“Of all spiritualists, he who, with total faith, always abides in Me and adores Me by serving Me with love, this one is the greatest and is most intimately bound to me”.

All the holy beings who live with Krishna, God, the Supreme and Sovereign Person in his kingdom, all of knowledge, bliss and eternity, act and behave naturally so. Their heart is filled with love for Krishna, and Krishna makes this love sublime to them.

The existence has no other goal than to please God.

The Avatar Narada Muni says about the Lord:

“The Form of the Lord preserves forever a youthful aspect. Each part of his body and each limb is beautifully formed, without the slightest defect. His eyes and lips are pink with the rising sun. He is always ready to welcome the soul who abandons himself to Him, and whoever has the incomparable fortune to look at Him feels an infinite satisfaction. The Lord always shows himself worthy to be the master of the submissive soul, for He is an ocean of mercy.”

“The Lord is always smiling, and the holy being should constantly see Him in this attitude, as He turns his infinitely merciful gaze towards his devotee. This is the way to meditate on God, the Supreme Person, who gives all blessings. Whoever meditates thus, concentrating his mind on this form of the Lord, eternal source of happy fortune, is quickly free from all material defilement, and his meditation is never interrupted.”

We must engage in meditation as above. It is not therefore a question of inventing a way of meditation on God, the Supreme Person. Instead, one must follow the authentic scriptures and the spiritual authorities; by conforming to this prescribed method, one can learn to concentrate on the Lord until he remains absorbed in a deep and constant meditation on his real, original and spiritual form. Thus, he who fixes his attention on the descriptions of the features and lines of the Body of the Lord will never fall.

This deep and constant meditation is called samadhi, or absorption in transcendence. When a being is constantly active in the service of divine love, nothing can make him deviate from his meditation on the form of the Lord.
