Portrait of Nithyananda

किं पुनर्ब्राह्मणाः पुण्या भक्ता राजर्षयस्तथा ।
अनित्यमसुखं लोकमिमं प्राप्य भजस्व माम्
॥ ९-३३ ॥

kiṁ punar brāhmaṇāḥ puṇyā bhaktā
rājarṣayas tathā anityam asukhaṁ
lokam imaṁ prāpya bhajasva mām

Illustration

How easier then it is for the learned, the righteous, the devotees and saintly kings who in this temporary miserable world engage in loving service unto Me.

POWERFUL COGNITION When we have a clear view about what we really want, then we will spend all our energies in fulfilling those needs, without worrying about what others want or think.

A portrait of Nithyananda Paramashivam

मन्मना भव मद्भक्तो मद्याजी मां नमस्कुरु ।
मामेवैष्यसि युक्त्वैवमात्मानं मत्परायणः
॥ ९-३४॥

manmanā bhava madbhakto
madyājī māṁ namaskuru
māmevaiṣyasi yuktvaivam
ātmānaṁ matparāyaṇaḥ

Fix your mind on Me, be devoted to
Me, worship Me, and bow down to
Me. Thus, uniting yourself with Me by
setting Me as the supreme goal and the
sole refuge, you shall certainly come to
Me.

POWERFUL COGNITION

All one needs is devotion to attain Krsna consciousness. The point Krsna makes here is that irrespective of caste, a person who has faith and devotion to Him can attain Him.
