Hare Krishna, my intention and attitude in sending you this message, is that Srila Prabhupada wanted us to transmit his teachings to everyone, without wanting anything in return.
24 hours a day, by Haripada dasa
Here I share the purpose for which Srila Prabhupada founded Krishna consciousness. This comes in Srimad Bhagavatam, 5, 12, 13: "This movement for Kṛṣṇa consciousness has been founded to occupy people in the service and glorification of the Lord twenty-four hours a day. In this institution, students devote themselves to the cultivation of Kṛṣṇa consciousness from five in the morning until ten at night. Thus they have no opportunity to waste time unnecessarily speaking about politics, sociology and current affairs. All this follows its own course. A devotee is only interested in serving Kṛṣṇa in a serious and positive way. "
I share that I have not watched television for a long time, I have come to the conclusion that on television there is only ignorance and passion, and it only attracts people who are ignorant and passion, ignorance because everything is a corporal concept, and passion because everything is sex and violence, there is nothing of kindness, if there was kindness no one would watch television, very few people in the world live in the mode of goodness, in Bhagavad Gita, 14, 6 says that the modality of goodness, being purer than the others, it is enlightening, and it liberates one from all sinful reactions. Those who are influenced by this modality are conditioned by a feeling of happiness and knowledge, then in the same chapter verse 21 it is said: Arjuna asked: Oh, dear Lord, what are the signs by which we know to one who is transcendental to these three modalities? How it behaves? And in what way does he transcend the modes of nature? And in verses 22-26 Krishna replies: The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: O son of Pāṇḍu, he who does not hate enlightenment, attachment or the illusion when they are present, nor the longing when they disappear; that it remains firm and imperturbable through all these reactions of material qualities, and that it remains neutral and transcendental, knowing that only modalities are active; which is situated in the being and which considers that happiness and affliction are equal; that looks with the same vision a bit of earth, a stone and a piece of gold; that has the same disposition towards the desirable and the undesirable; which is constant, being equally well in praise and in censure, in honor and in dishonor; that treats equal to the friend and the enemy; and that he has renounced all material activities: a person who is like that, is said to have transcended the modes of nature, one who devotes himself entirely to devotional service, firm in all circumstances, immediately transcends the modalities of material nature and thus reaches the plane of Brahman.
