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.
The truths of life, by Haripada dasa
Srila Lochana dasa thakura wrote a book about the pastimes of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu entitled Sri Chaitanya Mangala, in this book there is a conversation of Sri Chaitanya with his wife Sri Visnupriya before He took sannyasa or the life of the renounced order, thanks to that conversation we understand and accept the truths of life: "Seeing the enthusiasm of Mahaprabhu for taking sannyasa, said Vishnupirya," he said, his voice choking with emotion: "Tell me, oh Prananatha, Lord of my life, are you going to take sannyasa? I have heard this rumor circulating among people, on hearing this, my heart is broken, if it is true, I will enter the fire.You are the treasure of my life.Your beautiful form is always refreshing and youthful. to leave everything and go? If I am deprived of your association, I will give up my life for drinking poison. "Hearing the pitiful words of lamentation spoken by Vishnupriya devi, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu smiled a little and said the following uiente: "Listen, oh you who are more dear as life itself, please, do not be in any anxiety, there is no need to worry, what I am going to say is for your own benefit, please listen to me with attention, with all your mind tries to see that in this world it is all false, the only truth is God or Krishna and His devotees, and everything else is all illusion, to know this is a fact, children, wives, husbands, ladies, fathers, mothers, and everything else, all these relationships are illusory, temporary and transitory. In the course of life we have a set of children, wives, husbands, mothers and fathers, and in our next life these change. Apart from the lotus feet of God or Krishna and His devotees, we have no real family. Everything else we see as our family is an illusion of maya, what we see as man and woman is unreal. Under the surface of all souls is the spiritual energy, the relationship between men and women is an illusory connection of maya. Sri Krishna is the true husband of all, He is the teacher. Everything else is material, but unfortunately this is not understood by people in general. The souls are incorporated into a mixture of semen and blood from which it is born in a body composed of faeces and urine. In this way the soul moves on the earth in ignorance. From childhood to youth and old age, we suffer different miseries, while thinking that this body as our true self. Absorbed in the false ego, we make friends, enemies, etc., and we suffer until we reach old age. Even in hearing the truth, however, even our eyes are blind, and while our suffering in the material world makes us cry, we never worship God or Krishna and His devotees. Abandoning the service of Krishna, we keep these bodies in the material world of birth and death, trapped in the slavery of maya. Crazy of false ego we have forgotten our Lord, and therefore we make sure our passage to hell. Your name is Vishnupriya, however you have to fulfill the real meaning of Vishnupriya, and do not lament for what is false. Remembering what I have said here, put your fears at a distance, and always think of Krishna within your heart, day and night. "
Srila Prabhupada always said that people's problems are that they are not afraid of ignorance, they have no faith in the Sacred Revealed Scriptures and the person who lives full of lust, anger and greed will never be happy.
