Why to embrace Krishna Consciousness and Read Bhagavad Gita

Why we take Krishna Consciousness seriously

1. It gives spiritual and philosophical guidance

Krishna Consciousness helps us understand who we really are—not just the body, but the soul inside. It explains our purpose and the nature of the world.

Bhagavad Gita 2.13:"Just like we go from childhood to youth to old age, the soul also moves to another body after death. Wise people understand this and are not confused."

2. It teaches us how to live practically

Krishna’s teachings are like a guidebook for life. They help us make good choices, do our duties, and live with purpose.

Bhagavad Gita 3.19:"Do your duty without worrying about the results. When you work without selfish desires, you reach the Supreme."

3. It helps us find peace and purpose

By connecting with Krishna, we find peace that doesn’t depend on money, success, or social status. It gives strength during hard times.

Bhagavad Gita 2.70:"A person who stays calm even when desires come and go—like rivers flowing into the ocean—can find real peace."

4. It shows the way out of suffering

Krishna Consciousness teaches how to escape the cycle of birth and death and live a life free from material pain.

Bhagavad Gita 4.9:"Anyone who understands My divine birth and actions doesn’t take birth again. After leaving the body, they come to Me."
