Category:This is Krsna Consciousness Movement
Theme Analysis
The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is defined by Śrīla Prabhupāda as a "great art of life" and a "scientific and authorized" process for restoring human society to its original, constitutional position. He explains that while people are currently godless due to ignorance or choice, the movement seeks to awaken their innate God consciousness. This is achieved by shifting one's focus from personal sense gratification to the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa. Śrīla Prabhupāda characterizes the movement as a "cultural and educational" mission rather than a sectarian religion, emphasizing that it is open to everyone regardless of nationality, race, or previous background. Its core activities involve chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, studying the science of God through literatures like the Bhagavad-gītā, and simplifying life to find true happiness. Ultimately, the movement serves as the "best welfare activity," saving living entities from the cycle of birth and death and guiding them "back to home, back to Godhead."
- Scientific and Educational Awakening: Far from being a "bluff sentiment," the movement is presented as a "great science" intended to educate people out of "rascaldom" and the "bodily concept of life."
- Universal Inclusivity: The movement transcends all external "dresses" or designations. It accommodates Americans, Africans, and Indians alike, transforming "asuras" (non-devotees) into "devatas" (devotees).
- The Art of Satisfaction: The essence of the movement is changing the focus of our activities from our own sense gratification to Kṛṣṇa's satisfaction. This "art" allows one to remain perfect in any profession or position.
- Ultimate Welfare Work: By saving the soul from the entanglement of birth and death and the danger of "becoming cats and dogs" in the next life, the movement provides the highest benefit to human society.
