Okay, Hari Krishna devotees, today we'll continue with the reading from continuation qualification to see Krishna. As long as the consciousness rushes towards that supreme absolute truth due to the false ego of the material knowledge and science, that truth is easily stays far away. When the fortunate person painfully calling out to Krishna in a consciousness of being humbler than a blade that a blade of grass experiences the absolute truth and enjoy immense happiness when out of good fortune faith arises, then the person does not stay bewildered in material pride and does not become an offender to the Holy name, caste, creed, material education, beauty, strength, power of material science and so on. High position, wealth, kingdom, etc. Do not worry in the practice of Krishna consciousness. Therefore the truth of Krishna is naturally very far away from such people proud of their caste. If all these reasons are considered the reason for present day contempt for Krishna, Tattva would be easily seen. In the Shiva Bhagavatam it is mentioned 11.5.1 the intelligence of cruel minded persons are blinded by false pride based on great wealth, opulence, prestigious family connections, education, renunciation, personal duty, physical strength and successful performance of Vedic rituals. Being intoxicated with this false pride, such cruel person blessed in the supreme personality of God made so the things that most people are desiring. So the things that most people desiring, great wealth, great wealth, opulence, prestigious family connections, education, renunciation, personal beauty. So people who have this. They have this heavy weight, muscles are.
Built up.

Not proud of it. He could shoot arrows, but they were not proud of that. But what they considered most important was association with Krishna. One is problem is material environment. It could impede him from seeing Krishna. You should be undistracted from material occurrence of the body. The blessing is spg, the supreme personality of God in his. Thank you all of you for coming. Very good is blessing all of you. Give it to whom?
