Our true identity

Who are we ? Are we to be known by religion , country, name , caste, creed, sex , occupation or something else. All these are just designations of the material body , which is represented by the above mentioned elements, but factually, every living entity in this universe is a servant of GOD, when he forgets this constitutional position , the living entity under the influence of maya(illusion ) starts serving his senses. Hence one way or the other every one is serving , the only difference is with the minute independence the living soul has , he can either prefer to serve Krishna , the reserviour of all pleasure ,or he can choose to serve the senses under the influence of maya , which is under the supervision on Krishna. So one way or the other a living entity is still serving Krishna.
This fact is easily visible, a person who is lusty searchs for the opposite sex in order to serve his genitals, angry person screams and try to beat others inorder to serve his angry mind, fights occur because of the tendency of different mentailties clashing together. So called love of the material world leads into divorces and fights, since the husband or wife is no longer capable of satisfying others senses. So this is how people are serving different senses.

Whereas a devotee , engages in the normal activities ,but only to serve krishna, all his senses are utilized to serve krishna, he uses his tounge to chant Krishna;s holy name, and to taste krishna prasadam, his eyes to see Krishna , his nose to smell flowers offered to krishna, legs to go to the temple, hands to prepare food of do service for Krishna, genitals to beget children in Krishna consiousness, hence all his senses are controlled and he lives in peace.

But the most unfortunate thing for this so called modern age is , people are too much engrossed in serving their senses, this is only due to ignorance. The biggest problem is they do not see the need to change this and find out the source of ever lasting happiness, inorder to find a little happiness , they are ready insult others, exploit , cheat in order to please their senses. It is impossible to fully satisfy the senses, that is explained in Bhagvad Gita, senses are compared to snakes , they will never stop hissing, so it is a waste labor to work day and night to satisfy the senses and neglect the self. Young boys and girls , today are engrossed in so much of materilism, that many of them dont even find time for GOD a few minutes in a day. We have become so ungrateful, that we, the part and parcel of GOD, are living in the world created by him, which is his property, using a body given by him, everything practically we are attached to is HIS property , but we are fighting with each other to acquire the lordship on it , which will be forcefully taken from us at the time of death , instead of thanking him for what he has given and using it properly for HIS enjoyment.

People around the world are just setting up bad examples for the future generations, which will be born in a polluted environment, where, they will be taught only to work hard to gratify the senses and die in the end with a regret that with so much of efforts it also, he was unsuccessful in his mission to satisfy his senses.

It is utmost important or to pharse is better MOST important the responsible people should read this age old wisdon Bhagvat Gita and take to Krishna ,rather than wasting this human form of life simply eating, sleeping, mating and defending .
