LOVE IS BLIND

Love is blind, by Javier Figuerola or Haripada Dasa
The result of practicing genuine spiritual life is that the person or soul is purified and in a natural way awakens the qualities of the soul that were previously covered by the dust of materialism. The 26 qualities of a pure devotee of God are:
1) He is always kind to all, 2) He does not seek quarrels or fights, 3) His interest is in the essence of life, which is spiritual, 4) He is equal with all, 5) No one can find fault In him, 6) His mind is magnanimous, 7) His mind is always pure, 8) His mind is always clear, 9) His mind is always devoid of material obsessions, 10) He is a benefactor to all living entities, 11 ) He is peaceful, 12) He is always devoted to God, 13) He has no material desires, 14) He is very humble, 15) He is always fixed in his purpose, 16) He has triumphed over the six material qualities (Lust, anger, greed, envy, pride and ignorance), 17) He does not eat more than he needs, 18) He is always prudent, 19) He is always respectful to others, 20 ) He does not demand respect for himself, 21) He is gracious, 22) He is merciful, 23) He is friendly, 24) He is poetic, 25) He is expert and 26) He is silent.
If you love someone, you will never find fault with it, love is blind. Srila Prabhupada used to say, "I follow my Guru Maharaja blindly." One of the 26 qualities of the pure devotee of God or Krishna is that no one can find fault with it. Of course if someone finds defects in a pure devotee of God or Krishna, surely it will be out of envy towards him. A serious and sincere follower of Srila Prabhupada is one who repeats what Srila Prabhupada says in his books, and carries or demonstrates correct behavior, in other words he is not a hypocrite but practices what he preaches.
Thought to meditate:
"The words convince, but the example drags."
