HG Prajapati das – Memories of Srila Prabhupada (2 min. video)
On that first morning walk, Prabhupada asked us a question. He said, âWhat if the mind wanted the eyes to see?â It wasnât until years later that I understood that question. We canât see without the help of the sun or some form of electricity – our eyes are completely dependent. Inwardly also the light of consciousness and the Supersoul allow our eyes to see, and in that sense, we are totally dependent on Krishna. Prabhupada was pointing out that everything that we take for granted, like vision, is totally dependent on Krishna. We canât do anything independently. Our disease, maya, exists not in the world around us but, as Prabhupada writes in the Prayers of Lord Brahma in the Krsna Book, âThe existence of maya is only within the mind. Maya is nothing but ignorance of Krishnaâs personality. When on forgets His personality then that is the conditioned state of maya. Therefore, one who is fixed upon Him both internally and externally is not illusioned.â Our vision is incorrect. When we are Krishna conscious, we see everything as Krishnaâs energy.
