safe the planet by chanting

i just stumbled into a blog, where a bunch of swiss quys circambulate the world with a solartaxi.
whererever they go, they interview people, who are in charge of environment saving, stuff like that.

they basically say, if they just use hybrid cars, they can safe the planet.

but they won t. they are missing the point. it is not ilfes purpose to safe this planet.

it s to become krishna conscious and to go back to godhead.

trying to safe the planet is another form of: "i am the doer. i can do it.

this is called maya.

first self victory, then public victory.

and order to become self victorious, we have to know, what is the self.

basically, that knowledge means, that we are not this body. prabhuapda very often stressed this point.

spiritual life starts with: "we are not this body."

how can we know, that we are not this body?

by chanting: HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE, HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE

prabhupada would say, it is as easy as that. simple for the simple.

now, after a whole days work in the office, i was thinking, that i am not so great and not such an outstanding person with my little experiment of chanting hare krishna.

just one hour out of 24.

i have to start somwhere.

i will keep going. i am about to become fired up.

what about you? come on, give it a try.

actually, it is really nice.

I've found I've hit a bit of a plateau. I'm pushing ahead, but it's not as easy as it was. The last few days I've been restless.

Sometimes it seems like it's so hard to form good habits- and so easy to form bad ones.
