Always Have Somewhere Better To Be | HG Vaisesika Dasa | ISV | 22 Jun 2025

Devotional service and taking up spiritual practice can be heroic. You actually take a stance. You take a stand. If you don't stand for something, as they say—sorry about this—you'll fall for anything. And Krishna invites us to stand up, be strong. In another language, in the Third Chapter of the Gita, he says, "evaṁ buddheḥ paraṁ buddhvā saṁstabhyātmānam ātmanā jahi śatruṁ mahā-bāho kāma-rūpaṁ durāsadam" (BG 3.43). He's telling Arjuna, "You stand up and fight for conquering over the lower self by the higher self." So, "nirmāna-mohā jita-saṅga-doṣā"—give up false association with the world—and "adhyātma-nityā"—find out about transcendental knowledge. What that means is, read the Bhagavad Gita every day. If you want to have a nice day, read the Bhagavad Gita. If you'd like getting confused and disturbed, then just don't read it. "Adhyātma-nityā vinivṛtta-kāmāḥ." Kāmaḥ means desires that can't be fulfilled, and that's also the craziness of this world, is trying to fulfill a desire that will never be fulfilled. So he says, "Give this up." It's a permission to not engage in what most people do. "Dvandvair" means duality. It means don't see anything separate from your highest interest in life, which is to serve Krishna. Don't have a dual identity. Don't have cognitive dissonance and try to play both sides. Just be absorbed in Krishna and get everything from Krishna. Consider Krishna your protector, and consider him your maintainer. And whatever you do, do it for Krishna. You don't have to do it for anybody else. Even if you do have to do something for anybody else, consider that you're doing it for Krishna. Dvandvair, give up that sense of duality in the material world that causes consternation. And then "vimukta" means to be liberated. Be a liberated soul. "Sukha-duḥkha-saṁjñair gachanti" means now... Gachanti means you can go. "Yānti devavratā devān, pitṟn yānti pitṛvratāḥ, bhūtāni yānti bhūtejyā, yānti mad-yājino 'pi mām" means you can go wherever you want. Little jīva, free to move about the universe. You can go wherever you're able to point your attention; you can go there. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-step... ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook:   / fanthespark   Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
