prisoner is free when time is up

So our proposition is that "If you have got to prepare yourself for the next life, then why don't you take the trouble of preparing for going back to home, back to Godhead?" This is our proposition. You can prepare yourself to go to hell or heaven. That doesn't matter, because that is also temporary. Ksine punye punar martya-lokam visanti [Bg 9.21]. After you have finished... Just like you may go to jail or to somewhere else. When your visa or time is finished, then you are free from such life. Similarly, even if we go to the heavenly planet, when the resultant action of our pious activities are finished, then again we are turned down here. So in this way sometimes higher planetary, sometimes lower planetary, we are traveling. Therefore our best business is: "Why not go back to home, back to Godhead?" Krsna says, mad-yajino 'pi yanti mam [Bg 9.25]: "Anyone who is Krsna conscious, he comes to Me." So why not go to Krsna? Then the question will be: "What is the benefit of going to Krsnaloka? What is the difference between going to heavenly planet or any other planet and going to Krsna?" The difference is, any planet you go, you are under the four material regulation, janma-mrtyu-jara-vyadhi [Bg 13.9]: birth, death, old age and disease.    (More...)
