Recipe for permanent success
Materialistic persons are crazy for increasing their level of sensual enjoyment. That is known as kama - lust, material desire. They are investing so much energy, evan whole life to fulfill material desires. And what is the result of their endeavors - avidya-kama-karmabhih - result is situation of suffering.
But, we should also learn something from them. With same eagerness, just as they are trying to satisfy their senses, with such intensity and desire we should try to increase quality and quantity of our chanting Nityananda Gauranga and Hare Krsna.
Materialists are enjoying in material objects and we are enjoying by helping guru who is in service of Lord Krsna's enjoyment. If we can somehow or other help guru to make Krsna happy, we will automatically attain all perfection.
We are singing in Sri-Guru-Vandana:
jahara prasade bhai, e bhava toriya jai,
krsna-prapti hoy jaha ha'te
"It is only through the grace of the spiritual master that we cross over this material existence and only via his grace we can obtain Supreme Lord Gauranga Krsna."
Materialists are trying by their own strength and endevors to conquer this material world, but result is only pain.
On the other way, devotee simply surrenders unto qualified spiritual master, chant Nityananda, Gauranga and Hare Krsna with enthusiasm and automatically cross over this uncrossable ocean of suffering. That is real and permanent success.
Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krsna
Your servant,
Ishana Thakura das
