The Spiritual World

 


The Spiritual World, by Haripada dasa

The pure devotees of God or Krishna say that the Vrndavana of this material world and the Vrndavana of the spiritual world are made of the same spiritual substance, as the great spiritual master Srila Narottama dasa thakura says that one will be able to see Vrndavana when one has purified himself of anxieties and material desires. There is a Sacred Scripture called The Brahma-Samhita and there the spiritual world is described in a very beautiful way: “I adore that transcendental abode known as Goloka Vrindavana, where as loving consorts, the Goddesses of Fortune in their immaculate spiritual essence practice loving service to the Supreme Lord Krishna, as His only lover, where every tree is a gem for spiritual purposes, there all water is nectar, every word is a song and every step a dance, the flute is the favorite assistant of the Lord Sri Krishna and the effulgence of this place is full of spiritual bliss. There the supreme spiritual entities are all pleasant and charming, and the innumerable surabhi cows provide oceans of transcendental milk. I adore that abode where transcendental time is always present - without past or future - and therefore is not subject to the nature of passing away even for half a moment. That Kingdom is known as Goloka Vrindavana by very few realized souls in this world."

Our heart is like a television, and there are only two channels, the material and the spiritual, when we connect with the spiritual channel through chanting the Maha-Mantra Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare (H is read as J for J), God or Krishna reveals to us the spiritual world and His eternal pastimes, and when we connect with the material channel we only see a lot of suffering and everything is temporary.
