{ { www.LoveKrishna.Tk }} The Perfect creation by Perfect God
Aradhana
An old poem describes a woman walking through a meadow, meditating on nature. While strolling about, she came upon a field of golden pumpkins.
In the corner of the field stood a majestic, huge oak tree.
She sat under the oak tree musing on the strange twists in nature which put tiny acorns on huge branches and huge pumpkins on tiny vines. She thought to herself, "God blundered with Creation! He should have put the small acorns on the tiny vines and the large pumpkins on the huge branches."
Nodding off, the woman stretched out under the oak tree for a nap. A few minutes after falling asleep she was awakened by a tiny acorn bouncing off her nose. Chuckling to herself, she rubbed her nose and thought,
"Maybe God was right after all!"
Srila Prabhupada instructs:
Every arrangement by God is perfect. Purnam. Whatever is created by God that is perfect. According to the Vedic version, God is the leader of all living entities. We are different from Him because He is all-perfect and we are not. We are very small. We have the qualities of God, but in very small quantity. Therefore we have only a little knowledge, that's all. With a little knowledge you can manufacture a 747 airplane, but you cannot manufacture a mosquito."We have knowledge, but it is not as perfect as God's. "God is good."All-good. Whatever He does, whatever He speaks, everything is good, perfect.
Because you are imperfect, you are seeing the universe and everything as imperfect. So it is your imperfectness. Just like you are seeing the sun planet just like a disc, but it is not a disc. But because you cannot see perfectly, you are thinking like that. So your conception of the universe is imperfect, because you are imperfect. Otherwise, everything is complete. The universe, because it is made by God, it cannot be imperfect. God is perfect, and anything created by God is perfect.

GLORIFICATION OF THE HOLYNAME:
In Sanskrit 'MAN' means The Mind and 'TRA' means to RELIEVE. Mantra means to relieve the mind from MUNDANE thoughts and activities.
The easiest way to control MIND is to chant MAHAMANTRA in all humility.
{BG.6.34 (PP. 343-44)}
Chanting the maha mantra frees one from the miseries of birth, death, old age
N disease {CC.ADI:2, P.236}
PANCTTAVA MANTRA:
SRI KRISHNA CHAITANYA PRABHU NITYANANDA SRI-ADWAITA GADADHARA
SRIVASADI-GAURA-BHAKTA-VRINDA
MAHA MANTRA:
HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA
KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE
HARE RAMA HARE RAMA
RAMA RAMA HARE HARE
CHANTING SHOULD BE ATLEAST LOUD ENOUGH THAT A PERSON NEXT TO THE
CHANTER CAN HEAR IT.CHANTING IS SIMPLE BUT SHOULD BE PERFORMED PROPERLY FOR BEST RESULTS.CHANTING MINIMUM 16 ROUNDS EVERYDAY WOULD KEEP YOUR
SOUL FREE FROM MATERIAL CONTAMINATION AND IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR CLEANSING MIND AND HEART SO THAT ONE CAN BECOME SOBER,UNDERSTAND HIS HIGHER DUTY AND UNDERSTAND THE SUPREME LORD.

FROM-QUOTES-quote-sb 1/2/18 lecture in LADATED 21/8/72-LORD SHIVA TELLS TO PARVATIMATA--
There are two kinds of bhägavata: book bhägavata and devotee bhägavata. So in the Siva PuräNa, there was a question by Pärvaté to Lord Siva. Lord Çiva and Pärvaté, husband and wife. Pärvaté means the material nature. Såñöi-sthiti-pralaya-sädhana-çaktir ekä chäyeva yasya bhuvanäni bibharti durgä [Bs. 5.44]. Durgä-devé. Durgä-devé is in charge of this material world. It is called durgä, durgä, just like fort. And the superintendent of this fort is Durgä. You cannot go out of this fort; you are imprisoned. So such Durgä-devé, who is so powerful energy—she can create, annihilate, maintain, såñöi-sthiti-pralaya-sädhana—she is always sitting by the side of her husband, Lord Çiva, and questioning about spiritual enquiries. Just see. Such powerful deity is also ignorant about spiritual life. So the husband, Lord Siva, is Vaiñëava, and she's always asking, and sitting down underneath a bael tree. She can create so many universes, but for her, no building; only underneath a tree.
So the question was, "Which worship is best?" So Lord Siva replied, ärädhanänäà sarveñäà viñëor ärädhanaà param: "My dear Pärvaté, of all methods of worship, Viñëu worship is the topmost." There are many demigods' worship, even Lord Çiva's worship, but Lord Çiva says, "Viñëu worship is the best." Then he says again, tasmät parataraà devi. --"My dear Devi, better than that Viñëu worship is tadéyänäà samarcanam." Tadéya. Tadéya means those who are in relationship with Viñëu, tadéya. Just like His devotee, tadéya. Tulasé-våkña. Tulasé is tadéya. Or temple tadéya. Preaching tadéya. Tadéyänäà samarcanam. This is bhägavata. So Lord Çiva recommends that "Of all methods of worship, Viñëu worship is the best, and better than Viñëu worship is to worship His devotee or things in relationship with Him."
Tadéyänäm, that is bhägavata. Here it is also said, tadéyänäm, bhägavata-sevayä. This book bhägavata, spoken by the devotee bhägavata, this should be taken very seriously daily. Otherwise you..., we do not understand what is Bhagavän. Therefore it is recommended here: nityam, daily, or constantly, twenty-four hours. We have to mold our life in such a way that twenty-four hours, not a single moment leaving aside, we should be engaged in bhägavata-sevayä, in the service of Lord's relations. The Çrémad-Bhägavatam, Bhagavad-gétä, the spiritual master, tulasé-devé, the temple, the preaching, the books—these are all bhägavata. So nityaà bhägavata-sevayä.
