opulence if present

 
Imported quote 17648
So, taking this instruction from Kuntidevi, if we try to keep Krsna, so everything will be opulent. There will be no scarcity. On account of Krsna's presence... But how Krsna will be present? Krsna is already present. But His presence will be more and more appreciated by this kirtana. Tatra tisthami narada yatra gayanti mad-bhaktaḥ [Padma Purana]. This is the statement by Krsna. Krsna says that "I do not live generally in Vaikuntha." Krsna lives everywhere. Goloka eva nivasaty akhilatma-bhūtaḥ.    (More...)
So Kunti wants to keep Krsna in her kingdom because on account of His presence, everything is victorious. Yatra... In the Bhagavad-gita it is said, yatra krsno yogesvaraḥ [Bg 18.78]. Yatra... "Wherever Krsna is there, and wherever His devotee, Arjuna, is there," Sanjaya said, "all victory, all opulence, everything is there." He assured, he informed Dhrtarastra, that "This combination of Partha and Krsna means all opulence, all victory." In other words, he assured Dhrtarastra that "You are expecting victory by the superior strength of your sons, Duryodhana and others, but don't hope like that. It is not possible. Because victory will be there where there is Krsna and where there is His pure devotee." So if we remain pure devotee... What is that pure devotee?    (More...)
So wherever Krsna's pure devotees are there and when the pure devotees chant, Krsna is there. This is the secret. Tatra tisthami narada yatra gayanti mad-bhaktaḥ [Padma Purana]. So we, if we keep ourself pure devotee, without any other desire, material desire, then you should know that Krsna is present there. And as soon as Krsna is present there, then, on account of His presence, all opulences are there. Krsna is Madhava. Madhava means the husband of the goddess of fortune, Radha-Madhava. So try to keep Krsna always. Then all opulence is automatically there. Yam labdhva caparam labham manyate nadhikam tataḥ [Bg 6.22].    (More...)
