SELFISHNESS AND ENVY

Selfishness and envy, by Javier Figuerola (Haripada dasa)
The mentality of selfish person is me and mine, and practice double standards, width narrow for me and for others, never think of doing good to others without wanting anything in return, the mentality of the person which is free from selfishness or Krishna is God created everything, everything belongs to God because He created everything, my soul, intelligence, mind, body, home, furniture, etc. God created everything, and this person becomes honest when it occupies all the service of God and His devotees. That person live without anxiety and always give thanks to God for everything.
The mentality of the envious person ... that describes it well Srila Prabhupada in the Nectar of Devotion, Chapter 31: "When someone becomes malicious to see another progresses in life, his mental state is generally called envy. "In the Srimad Bhagavatam is called the material world and the world guilty of envy, is very difficult to find a person free from envy. Srila Prabhupada always said that one who is free from envy lives in the spiritual world while material is in the world and who is envious living in the material world. The cause of envy is the envy of God, we see that He is a person so full of goodness, so gracious, so full of various energies and so full of unconditional love, we grab envy and think that I am not God, and therein lies our material bondage, this is the last snare of ignorance to think that we are God. To free ourselves from this jealous God there is no alternative but to glorify Him, and that is the essence of all religions, love God above all things and your neighbor as yourself, since you wake up until you go to bed glorifies God your Lord, but who practice this?
Chant the Maha-mantra: Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare and be happy.
Srila Prabhupada Serve with love, faith, gratitude and attachment and your life will be successful and sublime.
