Mukti· LiberationResolve to Return to Kṛṣṇa
“A yogī who has faith in Me, absorbing his mind in Me and knowing that My purpose is always fulfilled, will always achieve his purpose by the very means he has determined to follow.”
What the purport teaches
- Lord Kṛṣṇa is satya-saṅkalpa: His desire, intention and purpose always come to pass. Through the described mystic power, a yogī absorbed in Him can achieve his objective even at an inauspicious time.
- We should determine to revive our lost relationship with the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa through devotional service. This infallible means can be practiced at any time or in any place.
- Our determination should be practical, not useless. The purport directs us to spiritual literature and a firm resolve to make a permanent solution to life’s problems by going back home, back to Godhead.
