Live the Bhāgavatam · SB 11.14.28
Mukti· LiberationAbsorb the Mind in Lasting Reality
“Therefore, one should reject all material processes of elevation, which are like the mental creations of a dream, and should completely absorb one’s mind in Me. By constantly thinking of Me, one becomes purified.”
What the purport teaches
- Material processes of elevation are like the mental creations of a dream. The Lord instructs one to give them up and absorb the mind completely in Him.
- Material existence is an unstable platform, continually disturbed by creation and annihilation.
- One whose consciousness is absorbed in Kṛṣṇa becomes purified and attains His nature. Kṛṣṇa consciousness places one in real existence.
Try this today
Pause one train of thought about material advancement and spend a minute consciously remembering Kṛṣṇa.
Ask yourself
Where am I seeking lasting stability in something that is temporary?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
