I can’t wait to get back to “normal”! Bhagavad-gita describes there are eight million four-hundred thousand species of life in the material creation. Not all are found on this earth planet but if you consider all organisms, the Earth hosts a good few million of those species.
I can’t wait to get back to “normal”! I have a bond, car payments, education fees, insurance, credit — scary times. We may feel that the wheel of our revered lifestyle has been steamrolled by a juggernaut (a huge, powerful, and overwhelming force). People are becoming desperate, the atmosphere is heavy, and domestic abuse is up.
I can’t wait to get back to “normal”! Have you seen the turtles on the Mumbai beach? The herds of deer in Yosemite? The dolphins riding the Durban beach waves?
I can’t wait to get back to “normal”! For whom? For the one species who is singularly responsible for every other species to go into hiding? The sastra states this human life is to awaken our true selves. To make our way back to what is truly “normal” for the soul.
I can’t wait to get back to “normal”! Where Lord Jagannath, the true juggernaut, will fill us — I, you dear reader, and every living entity within this creation is sad-cit-ananda — eternally free from disease and death, full of knowledge, no uncertainty about the future, and full of bliss, an overflowing of pure joy. Let’s get back to “normal.”
Warmest Wishes
Rasa-sthali Dasi
