The wise person

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 wise person, by Haripada dasa
I share some verses of the Gita that will help us understand and accept who is a wise person, in verse 5, 18 it is said that the humble sages, by virtue of true knowledge, see with the same vision a meek and learned brāhmaṇa or priest , a cow, an elephant, a dog and a doggie [a pariah], in verse 7, 17 Krishna says that the wise person is very dear to Him, there it is said that of these, the best is the one who he has full knowledge and is always dedicated to pure devotional service, for I am very dear to him and he is very dear to Me, in chapter 13, verses 8 to 12 describe the qualities of the one who has cultivated spiritual knowledge, humility; the absence of pride; nonviolence; the tolerance; simplicity; going to a genuine spiritual teacher; Cleaning; the constancy; self-control; the renouncing of the objects of the enjoyment of the senses; the absence of false ego; the perception of the bad of birth, death, old age and diseases; to be free from the entanglement of the children, the wife, the home and the rest; equanimity amid pleasant and unpleasant events; the constant and pure devotion for Me; the ambition to live in a lonely place; being detached from the masses; to accept the importance of self-realization; and the philosophical search for the Absolute Truth: all that I declare to be knowledge, and whatever else there is other than that is ignorance. And in verse 9, 32 Krishna says that everyone can come to His kingdom, here there is no place for machismo or feminism, that is for people who live in the bodily concept of life and live full of ignorance, and think that ignorance gives pleasure and that thinking that being a wise person is foolish, there Krishna says that oh, son of Pṛithā !, those who take refuge in Me, even if they are of low stock - women, vaiśyas [merchants] ] and the śūdras [the workers] - can be directed towards the supreme destination.
Finally I remind you that Srila Prabhupada said that I am very proud to have had a disciple like Jayananda prabhu, everyone should follow his example, the essence of this great devotee's life is that everything he did was for Srila Prabhupada to be happy , and in doing so he freed himself from personal interests and qualified to go back home to God.
