Practice Remembering Kṛṣṇa Now

“Dadhīci Muni controlled his senses, life force, mind and intelligence and became absorbed in trance. Thus he cut all his material bonds. He could not perceive how his material body became separated from his self.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 6.10.12, translation

What the purport teaches

  • Dadhīci Muni controlled his senses, life force, mind and intelligence and became absorbed in trance. His material bonds were cut, and he did not perceive his body becoming separated from his self.
  • Remembering Kṛṣṇa at death requires practice during life. The perfect devotee leaves the body thinking of Kṛṣṇa and returns home, back to Godhead.
  • Bhakti-yoga is the highest yoga system. The devotee who thinks of Kṛṣṇa with faith and worships Him in loving service is most intimately united with Him.
