Fixed in Krishna Consciousness


When one is fixed in Krishna consciousness nothing else is appealing to him because everything else is clearly perceived as it actually is, to be of an inferior quality. After all, why would one want to stoop down to low grade pleasure when he is tasting a pleasure that is infinitely better? There would be no compulsion to do so.

This is Krishna consciousness, the natural reawakening of the original pristine consciousness that has been there all along within, as we falsely sought happiness in the repetition of birth and death. It is revived by the mercy of the bona fide spiritual master and maintained and strengthened by the association of the Lord's devotees.
