Kṛṣṇa Consciousness: The Topmost Yoga System
$2.00
The ultimate goal of yoga is to understand Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Kṛṣṇa Consciousness means to practice the topmost type of yoga. This small book is composed of six essays by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda. Each concept cuts through the layers of illusion, confusion, and sentimentality that engulf the conditioned souls of this world and answers the questions that burn in the hearts of the sincere seekers of Truth.
These essays, even though composed many years ago, address various concerns that are of utmost relevance today. Some topics included are the necessity of a society based on devotional principles and organized for the spiritual progress of all the citizens, the special reasoning ability afforded in the human form of life that is not available in the animal species, the eternality of the soul, and the sublime method of attaining perfection- the chanting of the mahā-mantra (the great mantra for deliverance) – Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare, Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare.
This book offers the sublime benediction of the practice of devotional service to the Lord. This is the topmost goal of life, the development of love of God, and never having to take birth again in a material body that is so ridden with inconvenience. This small book is a nectarean condensation of sweet devotional understandings and practices. We are led, if we are willing, to the simple perfection of life- to become happy by the practice of the topmost form of yoga, and to make others happy by offering them the same process. This book is a cherishable must-have.
