Prabuddha Instructs How to Cross Maya
“Hear, recite, sing and meditate on the deeds, qualities and Avataras of Hari. Let all your exertions be for Him only. Offer to the Supreme Lord your sacrificial activities, gifts, Tapas, Japa, virtuous deeds, even your wife, children, house and your very life also.
“Cherish friendly feelings towards the devotees who absolutely depend upon Sri Krishna as their Lord. Worship the Lord as present both in the moving and unmoving objects, in righteous and great men who have attained God-realisation.
“In the company of Bhagavatas, learn how to sing, interchange devotion and love, remind each other and speak to each other of the glory of the Lord, till your hairs stand on end, and sing and dance till you lose yourself in devout contemplation.
“The devotees who have abandoned the world sometimes weep, sometimes laugh, while contemplating on Hari. They talk about Him, sing of Him. Having realised Hari they remain silent and enjoy the bliss of the Lord.
“He who thus trains himself in the duties of Bhagavata Dharma and practises the duties with faith and devotion, develops devotion and becomes absolutely devoted to the Lord. He easily conquers the Lord’s Maya which is otherwise unconquerable.”
