He who sees Me everywhere and all Me, I am not lost to him, nor is he lost to Me

This is again a very important verse from the sixth chapter of the Mahapurana, The Geeta.

Krishna is talking about “Yoga of Self-control” in this (sixth) chapter. The biggest control is the self control; to control and cease the mind from wandering here and there. The mind is very delicate and utmost powerful. It is fooling around you since centuries. Though you being the Master, are serving as a slave to your mind. You immediately follow what your mind says. Have you thought about not listening to your mind and giving orders to it instead? The day you start getting control on your mind, you initiate your first step towards spirituality. Spirituality is nothing but living in the correct way, to be simple and to understand oneself. Being simple is being spiritual; nothing less nothing more. People all over the world do all sorts of absurd and nonsensical activities in the name of spirituality. This is due to ignorance and lack of understanding. There is nothing to be borrowed or to be achieved. All is within you. This is not easy to understand. You yourself have the most unique and countless collections of powers, gems, energies within you. The only thing is to accept yourself as you are. Discontinue the identification process with the world. Accept your nature and your emotions as it is. This leads to being simple. This is the whole process. Nothing else is needed.

In the above verse, Krishna is talking about devotion and offering yourself completely to him. The day you start believing Krishna from full heart and accept himself as the charioteer of your life, as he was for Arjuna in Mahabharata, you will conquer the final purpose of this world. He will take care of your life onwards.

Krishna says “He who sees me everywhere and all me, I am not lost to him, nor he is lost to Me.” This means that if you trust him and let him lead your life, he will do the rest for you. Dedicate all your breaths, karmas (actions), struggles to him. Seeing him everywhere means believing that he is omnipresent. Understanding that, he is everywhere. All comes, survives and ends in him. He is the only start, he is the process and he is the only end. Those who perceive and live by the above thought will never lose him nor is he lost to them. He is present everywhere for them. Krishna is responsible for all the actions of his bhaktas (disciples). See him everywhere and you will find him everywhere!!

….Those who worship me, come to me

This is a verse from the ninth chapter of the famous Mahapurana, the Geeta. The verse is as follows:

Those who worship gods, go to gods,
Those who worship ancestors, go to ancestors,
Those who worship elements, reach to elements,
Those who worship me, come to me.

Krishna says, “Those who worship me, come to me.” The meaning of the verse is simple yet valuable.

Worshiper finally reaches the worshipped. Worshiper gets dissolved in the worshipped. The meaning is: Be careful while selecting your friends, inmates. This world is a reflection of your rays; the light emitted from your heart. This world is a mirror. It has everything and still nothing. All that you see around yourself is nothing but the echo of your feelings, talks and actions. You can see what you want to; you can reach where you want to. If you aim for mountains, you can conquer them, if you demand valleys, you can explore them. The world is colourless, flavourless. It is you, who puts the flavour in. This is the reason why all the communities are fascinated by different rituals. Africans feel shaved head as a symbol of beauty. Indians feel hair add beauty to your persona. It’s neither actually. Your illusion from thousands of years makes you feel so. Different people are interested in different activities. If activities had pleasure in them, why would everybody not be interested in similar things!

So Krishna says, be careful while selecting your goals. Be thoughtful while deciding your mates. Ultimately, it is your decisions, actions and choices, which define your destiny. Worshipping Krishna does not mean speaking his name aloud one hundred and eight times everyday, but understanding him, loving him and walking on the path craved by him. This will lead you towards him. Those walking towards him will finally find him!!

Few more words about krishna

Krishna cannot be explained in words although words will help us to find out more about him but not actual krishna. He is not just a person, he is a state, a process, not just an idol but a energy which lets the idol alive.
Krishna is the only God or person which covers all the aspects of life. He has lived life to fullest terms and accepting all colors. He does not chooses a single aspect and he is not a follower of a particular principle but he says that everything present seen and unseen is a part of life and is existing with a purpose behind it. Krishna is not seen running away from any part of life. He accepts everything with a lovely pink smile on his lips. No other legend is found accepting all facets with equal love and respect. Hence Krishna is unique in his own way. He does not discards war, neither disagrees with arguments. For him, nothing is ill or evil. Everything serves a purpose.

All the incidents in his life are indicating towards his way of perceiving life. Krishna is a thief stealing butter from the mudpots, he is a fighter standing against all the evil powers, a life saver picking up the Govardhan mountain on his finger, a philosopher explaining gems of life to Arjuna and udhava, a lover spreading his blessings to the gopis and the mankind, a musician spellbouding all the humans, animals through his magnetic flute,a warrior leading the Mahabharata, a great son which frees his mother and father from the kansa's prison...

The incident in Bhagvata Geeta when krishna was explaining the Arjuna why to fight and not to run away point towards a very immortal and divine principal of life. He is neither in favour of the war nor in favour of the peace. He says, when you have tried all your ways to stop the war, in order to save mankind but if still war is unavoidable, then running away is not correct. Accept it with pride. Accept it with Full grace. He is the simplest of all and complicated enough when required. He is beyond the TWO - phenomenon.
