Mould Your Life to Remember Krishna, Always

 

He Should Always Be Remembered and Should Never Be Forgotten

 

 

A person serious about making progress in Bhakti must always think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, must always chant His glories, and must always hear about His activities. These are the preliminary principles of following the scriptural rules and regulations.

According to the Padma Purana, the sum and substance of all the regulative principles of the scripture is that Lord Krishna should always be remembered and should never be forgotten. We should therefore mould our lives in such a way that in every activity, we shall be able to remember the Supreme Lord. Any activity that reminds one of Krishna is a regulative principle in Bhakti, and any activity that makes one forget the Supreme Lord is a forbidden activity for a devotee.
