Mukti· Liberation

Remember the Lord Through Life’s Changes

“As you live your lives, begetting generations of progeny and encountering happiness and distress, birth and death, always keep your minds fixed on Me.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.73.22, translation

What the purport teaches

  • The Lord instructed the kings to keep their minds fixed on Him while living their lives.
  • Their lives would include begetting generations of progeny and encountering happiness and distress.
  • Even amid birth and death, they were to continue with their minds fixed on the Lord.

Try this today

Pause during one ordinary task today and consciously remember the Lord.

Ask yourself

What part of daily life most easily draws your mind away from the Lord?

Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.

From Canto 10, chapter 14 onward, the translation and purports were completed by Śrīla Prabhupāda's disciples after his departure, and published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.
