Imported quote 18685 And the Bhaktivinoda Thakura sings, mayar bose, jaccho bhese', khaccho habuḍubu bhai. We are being carried away by the waves of this material modes of nature, sometimes drowned, sometimes on the surface. In this way, our life is going on. Jiv krsna-das, e biswas, korle to' ar duḥkho nai. But we can stop this being carried away by the waves of maya simply if we accept that we are eternal servant of Krsna. We can stop the carrying away.
(More...) This material world is sometimes regarded as an ocean of nescience and sometimes as a blazing forest. Proper understanding of one's constitutional position in relationship to Krsna is so nice that it can at once lift one from the struggle for existence which goes on in the ocean of nescience. This material world is sometimes regarded as an ocean of nescience and sometimes as a blazing forest. In the ocean, however expert a swimmer one may be, the struggle for existence is very severe. If someone comes forward and lifts the struggling swimmer from the ocean, he is the greatest savior. Perfect knowledge, received from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is the path of liberation. The boat of Krsna consciousness is very simple, but at the same time the most sublime.
(More...) Therefore knowledge, when one understands by the grace of spiritual master-"Oh, I am part and parcel of Krsna. Why not go to Krsna?" Therefore, "Even if you are considered to be the most sinful all sinners, when you are situated in the boat of transcendental knowledge..." This is transcendental knowledge, that "I am part and parcel of Krsna. So why I am rotting here? Let me see where is Krsna." "...you will be able to cross over the ocean of miseries."
