KrsnaGuruji teaches me not to accept limits.
When the senses encounter an object, the mind begins to register its attributes, the intellect defines it, and then the mind makes judgements about the object. It is a very limited and narrow method of being in the world. There is a story told by Guruji of the frog in a well. The frog only knows the world from his narrow point of view and for him, the whole sky is only as big as the opening above.
Likewise, years of self imposed restraints permitted just a narrow understanding of the world around me. Although ingrained in me, those restraints could not preclude the flow of Destiny and Grace that has landed me at the feet of my beloved Guruji. By His word, I know the world is an appearance. By His word, I know “God is.”
Throughout my life, I have been dependent on my imagination to understand that which exceeded my intellect, but even the imagination is limited. Unlike material world knowledge, Spiritual knowledge, is innate. My experience has been that the Spiritual knowledge, when illumined by my Guruji, resonates in my very core as Truth. Only when the veil of ignorance is lifted by the Knower, can one begin to perceive a Truth that is beyond the mundane world.
Prior to this journey, no realm of my imagination could have envisioned the path that is unfolding in my life. When I first heard KrsnaKnows, it was through His podcasts. From one podcast to the next, I listened, His voice has led me on this path. By His Grace, and in His company, the journey is taking me across the literal and figurative oceans.
My KrsnaGuruji has broadened my view, enabling me to conceive of an existence beyond the walls of the “well.”
