Spiritual Science

 Spiritual Science, by Haripada dasa

Srila Prabhupada presented the process of Krishna consciousness as a spiritual science and also as a spiritual culture, in any science there are three aspects, 1, the theory, 2, the practice and 3, the result, the theory is the Scriptures, there tells you that in this age of hypocrisy and quarreling, the authorized process is to chant The Maha-Mantra Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare, and the result of this The song is that your consciousness will be purified of lust, anger, greed, envy, ignorance and pride, the process of Krishna consciousness begins with faith, faith means having complete conviction that by chanting the Holy Name of God or Krishna automatically will fulfill all spiritual duties and complete all pious activities, faith also means that one obeys what the scriptures say, Srila Prabhupada told a devotee that I tell you to chant Hare Krishna and you obey, that means that you u have faith in me.

All this spiritual science is explained very well in the first chant of the Bhagavatam, second chapter, verses 17 to 21, there it is said that hearing what the Vedic literatures say about Kṛiṣhṇa or hearing Him directly through the Bhagavad-gītā, is virtuous activity itself. And for one who hears about Kṛiṣhṇa, Lord Kṛiṣhṇa, who dwells in everyone's heart, acts as a well-wisher friend, and purifies the devotee who is always engaged in hearing about Him. Thus, in the devotee He develops. in a natural way the transcendental knowledge that is latent. As he hears more of what the Bhāgavatam and the devotees speak of Kṛiṣhṇa, he becomes established in the devotional service of the Lord. Through the development of devotional service one is freed from the modes of passion and ignorance, and thus greed and material lusts diminish. When these impurities are cleansed, the candidate stands firm in his position of pure goodness, is encouraged through devotional service, and fully understands the science of God. Bhakti-yoga thus cuts the tight knot of material affection, and enables one to immediately reach the stage where the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead or Krishna, is understood.

Cheers up! And let's all together try to make Jagat-guru Srila Prabhupada Mahasaya happy, and not do anything that displeases him.
