When comes the time for Janmashtami, Hindus flock in hordes in Hindu temples to pray to, worship Lord Krishna. How many realized that Lord Krishna, the spirit existed within us?
Indulging in worship of Lord Krishna in temples is whimsical, feigning ignorance! Lord Krishna truly existed in our heart as our soul atman, the consciousness within.
Instead of praying to or worshipping Lord Krishna we must always try ways and means to reach Lord Krishna in reality. We can truly meet our Lord Krishna in person. I have done it all my life since six years of age. For doing so we have to undertake inner journey, path of spirituality towards soul atman, the spirit existing in our heart.
Journey of spirituality means reaching cosmic end of life, liberating self from cycle of birth and death forever… becoming a Mahavira, Gautama Buddha even Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed at the end of spiritual journey! Indulging in rituals, religious practices or praying to, even worshipping Lord Krishna does not mean anything.
I indulged in spirituality from six years of age. My faith in God was absolute 100%. I also believed in existence of God and his world of souls atmans 100%. Fortunately I practiced truthfulness 100% and this propelled me towards search of God. My ego six years of age was zero.
Indulging in spirituality as detailed in Bhagavad Gita and even Upanishads (independent spiritual treatises) I finally crossed all barriers of mundane life we called Samsara (worldly life), scuttled my karma to zero and finally overpowering five senses and mind successfully reached god.
Reaching God simply means becoming a pure soul atman, liberating self from cycle of birth and death forever. No more manifestations for soul atman within.
A spiritual traveler at the end of spiritual journey emancipated from cycle of birth and death, when leaves mortal frame gains moksha salvation and reaches kingdom of god (Vaikuntha in Hinduism).
As human form is the highest manifest stage in cosmic life cycle and self realization, god realization can be gained only in human form, we must try to understand importance of spirituality in our life. Indulging on religion, praying to various gods and goddesses never truly gained anything in life. We keep rotating endlessly in the cycle of birth and death.
When nine years of age I finally decided to end the endless rotation in cycle of birth and death! And started my sincere and serious pursuit of god via path of spirituality!
