🌿 Where You Are Now
Dear heart, feeling distant from Krishna can feel like wandering in a vast desert, thirsty for a drop of water that seems just out of reach. It’s okay to feel this way — yearning is itself a sacred sign that your soul is alive and seeking. Remember, connection is not always immediate or loud; sometimes it’s a quiet ember waiting to be gently fanned into flame. You are not alone on this path.
🕉️ Timeless Words
सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज ।
अहं त्वां सर्वपापेभ्यो मोक्षयिष्यामि मा शुचः ॥
— भगवद्गीता 18.66
“Abandon all varieties of dharma and simply surrender unto Me alone. I will liberate you from all sinful reactions; do not fear.”
(Chapter 18, Verse 66)
This verse is a profound invitation from Krishna to come to Him as you are — without conditions, without pretense. It reminds us that pure surrender, even in moments of doubt or struggle, is the doorway to connection and liberation.
🪬 Guiding Lights
- Connection is not always constant: Krishna’s presence is like the air — invisible but always there, even when you don’t feel it.
- Surrender your doubts gently: Faith grows when you release the need to control or understand everything at once.
- Small acts of devotion matter: A whispered prayer, a quiet moment of remembrance, or a simple offering can open your heart.
- Seek Krishna in all beings and moments: Sometimes He reveals Himself through nature, people, or your own inner voice.
- Patience is a form of devotion: Trust that your bond with Krishna will deepen in its own perfect time.
🌊 Inner Dialogues
You might be telling yourself, “Why don’t I feel Krishna’s love? Am I doing something wrong? Is my faith weak?” These questions can feel heavy, like a fog clouding your heart. It’s natural to wrestle with these feelings. Your yearning itself is a sacred pulse — a sign that Krishna’s love is near, even if it feels distant now. Be gentle with yourself.
📿 What He Would Say...
“My dear child, do not measure your love by the brightness of your feelings. Even when you feel lost, I am quietly holding your hand. Come to Me with your honest heart — with all your questions, your silence, your longing. I am here, waiting patiently, because your soul is precious to Me. Trust that every step you take toward Me is a step I have already walked with you.”
