misconceptions linger until exposed so similarly the determination of one another may well be obscured by the side long winding down of business dealings until tested on the phone with someone listening dear like this a logistical detail mind yes of course it is the business of the mind to mind power God only knows from where it is one yes just one of those things as this is next i feel it is from the heart realized as a one of a kind memory God only knows from where i remember mind power God only knows from where it is hurt by the way there is such a thing as abstraction and deduction both at the same time mind power God only knows from where it is quite economical to think of it as one kind of minor detail dear yes dear mind power God only knows from where it is inspiring to go back as i recall so many of those things being a one of a kind minor detail yes a little like you need to mind power God only knows from where it is at any rate dear but i remember pain strangely enough as much from the heart as this i remember peace and love too yes no yes no yes no wonder one puts it down to a logistical nightmare dear i mean do you ever mind power God only knows from where it is but do you ever mind power as this is next i kind of do but not nearly as much as you dear yes no wonder one thinks of it as a logistical detail in other words listen mind power God only knows from where it is but nothing will stop you from minding power so it makes me feel yes no kidding it makes me remember i am bound to remind you as this is next i am in a way saying go mind power God only knows from where it is i remember pain like this and peace with love but yes no kidding go mind power God only knows from where it is a logistical detail dear go mind power God only knows from where it is back but i will get back to you about it as this is next it is real incumbent upon me to realize how i am just now kind of going back to it in order to remind you of the way you need to mind power God only knows from where it is but i will get back to you about it as this is next dear listen there is no other way in time and time again you realize there is no other way in memory to keep to this detail my dear mind trust me there is no other way to remember you know the feeling there is no other way to remind you i am readily keeping to this here logistical detail Hare Kṛṣṇa Hare Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Hare Hare Hare Rāma Hare Rāma Rāma Rāma Hare Hare of course you might say it is a kind of reconnaissance we are on at least some of us are checking out every town and village like it is a tour of duty so to speak my dear mind yes no yes no yes no it is true i mean it does after all speak of some discipline with all due respect i do recall a service attitude was kind of there to draw on at least for some of us my dear mind yes at a distance somewhat but hey listen no harm no foul yes i remember we had some fun with it all the same there is a pronounced difference to the way i feel about getting back to what is so often termed the basics these days in sickness and in health one wonders what in the world they were thinking what were they thinking back then such they would go so far as to think of it as the basics yes dear one wonders what they were thinking back then in sickness and in health as this is next listen they are demonstrative of scholarly aptitude my dear and miss you by a country mile the way they aim at negating the mundane so it can wait but does this hurt by the way never mind forget i even asked there goes the neighborhood just like every single little town and village wondering where in the name of all that is good and holy do we get off the pot so to speak and reveal the workings of ever fresh personality as this is next and who can blame them certainly not me and she is within hearing singing Hare Kṛṣṇa exquisitely and dancing like moderated association personified yes yes mind the real impersonal construct by the way yes yes yes please never mind why it is far from easy for the embodied to even bother with how it can be taken the wrong way oh yes yes the impersonal construct negates the mundane dear mind as it is there are those of us who realize how it is being taken personally yes if you never take the impersonal construct personally one will call it a day my dear mind trust me yes no other way presents itself quite so clearly no clearly it is true no other way no other way yes no other way alright alright so what is the difference between as i understand it what is the difference between that which is not making sense and space you might as well ask me as i understand it being peaceable is in this atmosphere an expressed position of subjective import allowing for any perceivable tendency to bear with one another a way to run its course no questions asked that is there is a way space makes sense like one of us could care less what i understand from a subjective point of view since or as that which is not making sense puts one off the tendency to bother going over it subjectively for some strange reason yes dear mind in a way it is none of your business what the difference is between as this is next so subjectively speaking but that is not the point try to understand space as that which is not making sense and see how far that gets you invocation no invocation oh the invocation of it all is private at any rate mind the cost of doing business by way of the impersonal construct yes no matter what that was all about listen the impersonal construct negates that which is not of any heart felt interest right around here somewhere like you are going to flip about the way it is not on the house please wait never mind okay look don't start i mean listen don't get me started on that on the phone with someone talking tatastha kids talking an unknown quantity of virtually unsung tatastha kids on the phone with someone talking like since time immemorial on the phone with someone oh how i wish you were here it is so disquieting and yet i wonder how i am far from the only one by way of leaning into the ripe old task of keeping the peace with faith yes yes it is real there is no way i will forget being not the only one but i wonder what it would be like this way dear famously handy and yet considerably remote aspect of my i mean this personality yes no it is true you are real subtle i mean not too subtle in effect but oh the irony of it all makes me wish you were here in person yes puzzling as that sounds from one perspective i wonder and wonder how like it is taking all the time in the world i wonder how i am far from being the only one as the feeling of waiting to be of immediate service lingers an atmosphere of general overall indifference pervades disconcertingly enough to make me wish it was nowhere near so easy to effectively justify being pretty much elsewhere by way of staying within hearing while embracing what is essentially a device dear yes no more than ever you can't help but wonder why they stay on you know what they are from one perspective yes always on the phone with someone all day and all night on the phone with someone oh my God on the phone with someone all day and night all day and all night on the phone with someone on the phone with someone on the phone with someone who listen uniformed that way schooling is going to get you schooling is going to get you schooling is going to get you wondering about the mirror of the heart however emphatically fixed you are not to be relatively uninformed about how it is real though you do not know what you are talking about still you continue to be emphatically worked up over what is heartfelt by way of homeless reflection in hopes of sustaining some empathy at least yes however uninformed you do wear a kind of uniform that way and that way schooling is going to get you schooling is going to get you schooling is going to get you my dear mind all you can take is time you know the feeling as this is next time is nice you feel pest free finesse taking time mind how sweet the exemplary nature of taking time to be at speed you can give the feeling of being up to speed a chance to mature since there is more than enough time to remember how no claim to fame rises above personality yes you know the feeling all you can take is time dear mind as no claim to fame rises above personality like this yes you know the feeling i hear there is more than enough time to remember how no claim to fame rises above any of our personal feelings as this is next you must never forget to remind me of animated quality time while someone is on the phone yes dear no claim to fame rises above our personal feelings while someone is on the phone you can tell how one is on the phone with someone dear look at it this way hey there is more than enough time to feel real patient relative to any now and again claim to fame inspired rush to muster mind controlling epic genius before we get ahead of ourselves you know what i am saying on the phone the course of action is neither here nor there from one perspective it is up to speed with the way one sees things as they are of course one who sees action in inaction and inaction in action sees things as they are dear and she never asks why it is no bother after all am i to ask you why one sees things as they are no i should feel free to be rather inconceivable this way on the phone it is after all no bother from one perspective to feel active all things considering yes no matter what it feels like so suddenly i am after all not at all dying to get off the phone for some strange reason no one thinks like that dear mind the inconceivable it is from one perspective free you know the feeling it is from one perspective kind you know what it is real like i tried it on you from one perspective and thought you would show me a little courtesy all things considering it is quite like we are kind of real even from one perspective even as it is quite interesting to note how often it is just like one of us to try getting even by way of it while acting like a God damned fool yes dear no kidding i thought you would show me a little courtesy all things considering but wait there is more i mean hold on yes okay look anyway i am not alone wait listen i am on the phone hold it dear listen yes no of course you are not alone either i am sorry yes no yes no yes no it is true i need to pay close attention to the way there is a real party line all things considering there is nothing about being inconceivable that precludes the feeling of being party to a line yes a course of action that is all things considering neither here nor there inconceivable as that sounds i feel funny about not talking to you about it before like this but of course that is neither here nor there inconceivable as that sounds mind you all things considering it is a courtesy to hold by the way that sounds different from one perspective and anyway if it is all the same to you i am not alone as you well know so hey i will talk yes that is the way of it after all dear people will talk if it is all the same to you people will talk and so shall i here and there we are all the same that way dear mind trust me oh my God i would be ready if i were you yes i would be eminently memorable too if i were you i would be nice and fortunate too if i were you yes i would be refreshingly wise but always feel to be an open ended listener if i were you i would too yes if i were you i would be kind to silly time wasting constituents of a politically divisive sort yes if i were you i would be happily married or something and spark conversation too if i were you people would say i am sober yes no matter what that was all about i would play no mind games while maintaining a glorious sense of humor if i were you i would be by the grace of God a rightly situated remote controller with next to nothing to engineer that could ever somehow or fall into disrepute if i were you there would be all kinds of fun and interesting things to do yes i would never be bored or frustrated by it if i were you i would know that ignorant would be pimp is the prostitute expecting me to put you at a disadvantage dear confirmation no confirmation mind the feeling of being mysterious with me or call it a bargain without falling behind whatever that was all about yes dear it hardly matters who is thought of as being nothing if not made for the avails of whatever that was all about trust yourself to confirm the mysterious nature of being behind whatever that was all about or mind the feeling of working on confirmation close to being God only knows how far and away beyond me in terms of waxing mysterious fear not Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa is forever a person imbued with dynamic qualities such as compassion love and respect of course by all accounts those tasteful characteristics are true to form a blessing in our experience we feel engaged by way of them accordingly there is that about the person of Śrī Kṛṣṇa which suggests a sequential continuity to His sweet intelligent manner of speaking i trust you spiritually appreciate as it is without fail purifying any indulgence fashioned from imagined lack of energy due to time constraints or whatever that was all about by the look of it i mean doing a double take is far from out of the question dear you are most certainly allowed to react with all kinds of spirit in other words trust me i do feel like talking about the truth so as to get your reaction pretty spontaneously that way now and again application no application art is never in a pickle art is the whole of the pickle art is never in a jam in other words art is the jam mind the art of jamming now respect for circumstantial evidence is characteristic of those sheltering each other though it beggars belief some of those characters are real ignorant and disrespectful on the side who is such a fool as to think they are effectively sheltering to the good as good as one as this is next dear mind who are you to say i ought to know by way of circumstantial evidence who they are sheltering as time is a factor who feels like it is nothing listen the way you win yes listen the way you win some honestly listen the way you win some and lose some she says it is real complicated but nothing to write home about as it feels kind of impersonal my dear mind anywho i heard you yes it is clear you tried to warn me off you went to variously steering the sight i was perishingly unaware of claiming away from that wantonly heavy psycho logical trap you knew who always feels like it is nothing to fight a war that simply wastes valuable time my dear you knew who the ghosts and demons work to distraction like it is none of my God forsaken business you knew who saw too many of us as kindred that unwholesomely dispassionate way i heard you say it is of interest to see me engaged in the yugadharma but it is understood as ever between us how nothing makes us give up the feeling you know the feeling of being played for a fool wherever and whenever leadership is factoring into life as we know it yes dear you knew who we were thinking of as the unknown quantity without a single doubt you knew how it was going to fail me so i went anyway yes never mind why and realized to a kind of perfection what an unholy piece of work i could be in the eyes of others yes dear you knew who failed to grasp how it never means nothing to be transcendental because of a weird language barrier of sorts yes as i carry on nothing is easy to convey by thinking we are bound to speak at all the same i mean certainly not at this time either we never speak the same language enough to realize how it is far from nothing the way she expresses transcendence yes dear you knew that without a single doubt oh yes and you knew how i would have nothing to say about it on time like this you knew it you listen to everything in a way yes no kidding you knew going along with it no going along with it mind the pace index no index of the mind is facing off and leaving it at that for one to of necessity imagine being a victim with more than enough energy to just swing it insight no insight necessary to declare war on that which is not even a factor accordingly i remember the delicacy of yin little by little and sing the way some think so whatever that was all about it is time as space makes sense mind taste a little more insight into the way it is time to be taken personally does taste a little far out once you remember the delicacy but she is blissful by the way there is always an element of surprise to her sound character i remember quite simply as life goes on she is within hearing singing Hare Krsna exquisitely and dancing like moderated association personified it okay it yes it is that which is not about stopping it yes it is what it is all about from now on just like there is a reminder to it okay it is real as it is not going to stop it in our experience you know it all is about how it just so happens to be important to tolerate it without this creating a disturbance or what have you yes nothing from the past will stop it but you can go on tolerating it in the immediate future yes just stop spinning the politics of it in a sorry frenzy okay it is only a little remarkable but you are already fixing to alternatively mind capacity for change well who can help but hold to that being a given as this is next after all it is not the same anymore like i care to indulge you know the way things are going who is even capable of it sentimentality no sentimentality who cares to put all promise into the face of come what may upset and turn over my dear mind it hardly matters what you think is a given on second thought it is only natural to mind access by way of maturation as this is next a subtle adjustment of course it is real as it is not too subtle in effect you remember how it is real at any rate yes in effect it is real as it is dear a real subtle adjustment to the tightly wrapped you might say space makes sense as you are equally true to form yes i remember how it is true my dear mind space is real yes of course space makes sense as it is true to form i love the way you made a subtle adjustment in space i love how you created an atmosphere without too much difficulty it is true yes far from too subtle in effect you made an amazing adjustment my dear mind i remember with all these friends you are true to form capable of making quite an adjustment in space mainly because of the mix tending my yes it is of course it is my karma as the mixed tend to the mixed i am tending to it dear trust me yes making a difference that is what it is like for better or worse karma makes a difference yes what goes on makes a difference dear it is like you to be so married to the way karma makes a difference i am mortified in the soup of mixed vegetables spilling off the couch and on and on and on down to the floor where i can never get a moments worth of beauty rest because of it dear yes it is my karma because of it this means business trust me as this is next it is none of my business how great your expectation to enjoy the business of accepting and rejecting my dear mind you are to surrender at the lotus feet of Śrī Kṛṣṇa dear trust me i would be remiss were i to tell you it is enjoyable the way there is no time to lose trust me whatever yes no kidding whatever comes to fruition as this is next you are not going to enjoy it by way of simply accepting and rejecting as is your wont you are to surrender yes no kidding you are to surrender the tendency to mean business in a timely fashion dear trust me i am not kidding there is no other way to remember how it is the business of the mind to accept and reject with no time to lose you are in need of taking shelter at the lotus feet of Śrī Kṛṣṇa my dear mind trust me the way this means business you can tell i am in no way trying to pull a fast one go on take shelter this means business dear whatever comes to fruition by way of that which is not maturation in a timely fashion means war as it is real the way there is no time to lose you can tell yes dear maintaining access to maturation is essential in Kṛṣṇa consciousness as this is next kindly remember to take shelter at the lotus feet of Śrī Kṛṣṇa by way of accepting and rejecting as is your wont there is no other way to gain access to maturation without fussing over what comes to fruition my dear mind trust me i love the simple fact is i love that you made such an astonishingly subtle adjustment dear mind how oh please yes it is true still we must go to chanting yes we simply must go the way of remembering how there is no other way like this dear mind the chanting yes remember how it is by chanting attentively we go the way of remembering there is by all accounts no other way to realize who you are please chant Hare Kṛṣṇa yes i need to go on trust of course you need to trust the way there is no other way i need to remember chanting yes i need to go on remembering the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra with you please oh please you are not my order supplier yes no matter what order of life applies to us as this is next you are far from my order supplier dear please try to understand how honestly it is a simple request yes no i am listening but there will never be another way to remember how i need you to pay so much attention will you please just pay attention it is a real simple request is it not never mind yes no you are not my order supplier never mind i am chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa never mind go home or help yourself to the way time is a memory yes no matter what you are not my order supplier as this is next fine go home i tried to engage you in a way that is somehow or other not even attractive on the face of it separation is leaving us grief stricken and too kind of out of sorts dear yes no matter how near or far you should go or simply help yourself to the way time is a memory quite frankly we have never been closer than this except way back when it hurt to stop chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa already yes no yes no yes no ifs and or buts listen Bhagavad-gītā As It Is by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda CHAPTER SEVEN Knowledge of the Absolute TEXT 8 raso ’ham apsu kaunteya prabhāsmi śaśi-sūryayoḥ praṇavaḥ sarva-vedeṣu śabdaḥ khe pauruṣaṁ nṛṣu rasaḥ—taste; aham—I; apsu—in water; kaunteya—O son of Kuntī; prabhā asmi—I am the light; śaśi-sūryayoḥ—in the sun and the moon; praṇavaḥ—the three letters A.U.M.; sarva—in all; vedeṣu—in the Vedas; śabdaḥ—sound vibration; khe—in the ether; pauruṣam— ability; nṛṣu—in man. TRANSLATION O son of Kuntī [Arjuna], I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and the moon, the syllable om in the Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether and ability in man. PURPORT This verse explains how the Lord is all-pervasive by His diverse material and spiritual energies. The Supreme Lord can be preliminarily perceived by His different energies, and in this way He is realized impersonally. As the demigod in the sun is a person and is perceived by his all-pervading energy, the sunshine, similarly, the Lord, although in His eternal abode, is perceived by His all- pervading, diffusive energies. The taste of water is the active principle of water. No one likes to drink sea water because the pure taste of water is mixed with salt. Attraction for water depends on the purity of the taste, and this pure taste is one of the energies of the Lord. The impersonalist perceives the presence of the Lord in water by its taste, and the personalist also glorifies the Lord for His kindly supplying water to quench man’s thirst. That is the way of perceiving the Supreme. Practically speaking, there is no conflict between personalism and impersonalism. One who knows God knows that the impersonal conception and personal conception are simultaneously present in everything and that there is no contradiction. Therefore Lord Caitanya established His sublime doctrine: acintya-bheda and abheda-tattvam—simultaneously one and different. The light of the sun and the moon is also originally emanating from the brahmajyoti, which is the impersonal effulgence of the Lord. Similarly praṇava or the omkāra transcendental sound used in the beginning of every Vedic hymn to address the Supreme Lord also emanates from Him. Because the impersonalists are very much afraid of addressing the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa by His innumerable names, they prefer to vibrate the transcendental sound omkāra. But they do not realize that omkāra is the sound representation of Kṛṣṇa. The jurisdiction of Kṛṣṇa consciousness extends everywhere, and one who knows Kṛṣṇa consciousness is blessed. Those who do not know Kṛṣṇa are in illusion, and so knowledge of Kṛṣṇa is liberation, and ignorance of Him is bondage. |
