Inner Fulfillment

· Epilogue: The Key to it All ·

This Nabadwip Dham, on the banks of the Ganges, has such great value, especially for the realization of our highest self, as recommended by Sriman Mahaprabhu. It is a land of love, sweetness, charm and beauty—all are synonymous. It is heart-capturing. Our real existence is in neither our knowledge nor our power but in our hearts. Our real, proper identification is with our heart. So, the all-important factor in our lives is in which direction our hearts are moving. It is a heart-transaction.

Mahaprabhu recommended, “Do not rely on your knowledge, reasoning capacity, or power. It is the heart transaction that is all-important.” The inner factor of your existence is in your heart. So, try to guide your heart towards sweetness—towards home. Our real home is not here, where we are wandering around with no certainty throughout 8,400,000 species according to our karma. Only in a human birth, with the help of the divine agent, can we go back to our home, to home and affection. Home is there where the environment takes care of us, our fortune, and our comfort independent of our consideration. The affectionate paraphernalia there will help us very lovingly. So, we should make good use of this opportunity to go back to God, back to home, our sweet, sweet home.

Mahaprabhu recommended the path, “Taking the help of the divine agent and revealed scriptures, try to go there yourself.” Your present position is uncertain. It is not fixed where you will be carried after death by the current of your previous karma; therefore, try make best use of whatever time is available to you before your death. You have freewill, so the days before your death are, to some degree, in your hand to use: use this time with the utmost care for God realization. There is nothing as important for all of us as this. The common advice for us all is “Give up all your duties and jump into the only duty to go back home.” There, everything is full and complete, and everyone will look after your real interest. You must go there. Back to God, back to home.
