We are all devotees, by Javier Figuerola the Haripada dasa
Srila Prabhupada always said that we should always be ready to offer respect to all, because every living entity is originally a devotee of God or Krishna, but circumstantially the soul being covered by ignorance, is acting like a demon, in this world there are the Divine and demonic people, the divine ones obey the laws of God or Krishna and the demonic ones do not, but the original nature of all is to be a devotee of God or Krishna. The first thing to do in devotional life is to purify designations, designations means things that we are not but we believe we are, for example people in general think that I am the body, and therefore I am Spanish, American, Hindu, etc., I am the master of everything, my house and my family belong to me, I am the enjoyer, the controller of everything, this woman is my wife, here is my son, here my brother, etc., all that Are designations, the result of living with designations is that the person lives full of fears, envy, ignorance and very conditioned, a soul free of designations believes and experiences that I am not the body, but an eternal spiritual soul, loving servant of God Or Krishna and His devotees, my relatives are also children of God or Krishna, my house and everything I own is from God or Krishna and I use everything for the service of God or Krishna, the result of having that God consciousness or Krishna, is that the person lives happy and free.
In devotional life there are three kinds of devotees of God or Krishna, the neophyte, the intermediate stage and the perfect devotee. First, one must understand what faith is, faith means to have complete conviction that in chanting Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. Reads like J de jouta) will automatically fulfill all duties and complete all pious activities. The neophyte devotee exhibits a faith that is formal, even worldly, worshiping the Deity but has not developed an interest in serving the representative of God or Krishna, the authorized spiritual master, the middle-stage devotee develops loving affection for God or Krishna , Makes friends with other devotees, has compassion for innocent people, an innocent person is one who believes in God or Krishna, but is not advanced in spiritual life, and evades the company of atheists, and the perfect devotee is one who See God or Krishna everywhere, and God or Krishna is his life and soul, his life revolves around the Maha-Mantra Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare (the H is read as J de jota), for him, the Holy Name of God or Krishna is the essence of everything.
Thought to meditate:
"People who think ignorance is bliss, being wise is fools."
