Imported quote 18217

So the bhakti gives you chance to see Krsna, as you can see now. Of this seeing or any other kind of seeing, they are the same thing; there is no difference. When Arjuna was seeing Krsna face to face-Krsna was teaching Bhagavad-gita-that seeing of Krsna and when you read Bhagavad-gita, it is the same thing. There is no difference. Somebody, they say that "Arjuna was fortunate enough to see Krsna face to face and take instruction." That is not correct. Krsna, He can be seen immediately, provided you have got eyes to see. Therefore it is said, premanjana-cchurita... Prema and bhakti, the same thing. Premanjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena santaḥ sadaiva hrdayesu vilokayanti [Bs 5.38]. (More...)

So this is... How he was seeing the picture? Because he was a lover of Krsna. It doesn't matter he could read these slokas or not, but he was absorbed in love of Krsna, and he was seeing Krsna was sitting there, and He was driving the chariot of Arjuna. This is required, not that education. Bhaktya mam abhijanati [Bg 18.55]. (More...)
