Giriraj Swami read and spoke from Srimad-Bhagavatam 2.1.11 during the Sunday evening festival.
“You can get everything by chanting Hare Krishna. You can get liberation, you can get material opulence, you can get mystic powers — you can get everything. But a pure devotee, who is most intelligent, will pray only for service to Krishna, because that is his natural position. That is when he is naturally happy and satisfied. So, this is our process. It is good for all people in all categories. It is good now, it is good at the time of death, and it is good after death.
“In Krishna consciousness the means and the end are the same. We chant Hare Krishna and serve Krishna now, with transcendental pleasure, and after death we continue to serve Krishna. For a devotee death is but a gateway to eternal life.”
