Bg 2.55
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: O Partha, when a man gives up
all varieties of desire for sense gratification, which arise from mental
concoction, and when his mind, thus purified, finds satisfaction in the self
alone, then he is said to be in pure transcendental consciousness.
All good qualities manifest in a Krishna conscious person
The Bhagavatam affirms that any
person who is fully in Krsna consciousness, or devotional service of the Lord,
has all the good qualities of the great sages, whereas a person who is not so
transcendentally situated has no good qualifications, because he is sure to be
taking refuge in his own mental concoctions. Consequently, it is rightly said
herein that one has to give up all kinds of sense desire manufactured by mental
concoction. Artificially, such sense desires cannot be stopped. But if one is
engaged in Krsna consciousness, then, automatically, sense desires subside
without extraneous efforts. Therefore, one has to engage himself in Krsna
consciousness without hesitation, for this devotional service will instantly
help one onto the platform of transcendental consciousness.
Conclusion
The highly
developed soul always remains satisfied in himself by realizing himself as the
eternal servitor of the Supreme Lord. Such a transcendentally situated person
has no sense desires resulting from petty materialism; rather, he remains
always happy in his natural position of eternally serving the Supreme Lord.
