September 4, 2021 - A Letter to a Devotee Undergoing a Difficult Test (from the Blog)
Devotional service is an internal cultivation. If you can simply continue accepting your life as it is now as Krishna's mercy, Krishna will take notice, and He will carry you through all of this. You will come out of this with more realizations, more compassion, and with a brighter future as you move closer in your relationship to Krishna.
Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.2.33, Vrndavana, November 12, 1972
Here the mahat-tattva, the total material energy, is called avyakta. Then, when it is agitated by the glance of the Supreme Lord, the three modes of material nature acts. And by interaction of these three modes of material nature, the whole cosmic manifestation come into being. This is not theory; this is the fact of creation. Creation, there is machine, or there is electronic working and the buttons are pushed by the Supreme Lord. Parasya saktir vividhaiva sruyate [Svetasvatara Upanisad 6.8]. [The Supreme Lord has nothing to do. Nothing is equal to Him or greater than Him. He acts in different phases by manifesting His parts and parcels, which are all simultaneously differently situated by His unlimited, variegated potencies. Each potency acts quite naturally in sequences, providing Him full knowledge, power and pastimes.] His electronic machine is so subtle and powerful that we cannot understand. We say "nature."
