Mukti· LiberationRecognize and Worship Kṛṣṇa Within All
“Thus enlightened in Vedic knowledge by service to the spiritual master, freed from all sins and duality, one should worship Me as the Supersoul, as I appear within fire, the spiritual master, one’s own self and all living entities.”
What the purport teaches
- Faithful service to a bona fide spiritual master brings Vedic enlightenment and purification. Sinful activities extinguish the fire of spiritual enlightenment.
- Kṛṣṇa instructs the purified student to worship Him as the Supersoul within fire, the spiritual master, oneself and all living entities.
- A purified person learns to observe the Supreme Personality of Godhead within all things rather than exploit nature for personal sense gratification. Teaching this consciousness systematically can make society peaceful and sublime.

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