The Way of Liberation, of True Freedom

Those who destroy family traditions live in hell forever.

Even if some temporary problem comes to hinder the observance of the principles of eternal religion, these can be reapplied at any time. Conforming to the institution of the natural organization of society established in social classes and spiritual divisions, has the effect of gradually raising us to the spiritual level and freeing us from material slavery.

By observing the principles of eternal religion one has the opportunity to come into contact with devotees of Krishna, which has the effect of gradually awakening our now dormant propensity to serve Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, and to free ourselves from all that is the basis of a life of sin. One then has the opportunity to offer a service of pure love and devotion to Krishna.

Every human being, according to his past deeds, his skills and his spiritual elevation, belongs to a given social group, and he must fulfill the duties inherent in this social class, while respecting and working in harmony with members of other social groups.

The activities of the four social classes; the wise scholars and spiritual guides of society, the administrators, the military and protectors of society, the farmers and traders, and the workers, and the four spiritual divisions; the first stage, period of celibacy and study of sacred texts under the tutelage of a spiritual master, the second stage of spiritual life, period of social and family life in accordance with the Scriptures, the third stage of spiritual life, period of pilgrimage to various sacred places, to detach oneself from family and social life, and thus prepare oneself for renunciation, and the fourth stage of spiritual life, total renunciation of all family and social life in order to fully master the senses and the mind, and to fully engage in the service of Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is the best way to achieve the ultimate goal of life, when they are dedicated to God.

Whoever fulfills the duties inherent in the four social classes and the four spiritual divisions must offer the fruit of all his acts and duties to the Lord. This is the perfection of existence.

In the material world, unless one identifies with one of the social classes and one of the spiritual divisions, one cannot properly assume one’s social or spiritual life to achieve the ultimate goal of life, God.

Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu the Golden Avatar says:“To achieve the ultimate purpose of existence, be Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, chanting the holy names of the Lord and listening to the glories of Visnu, Krishna, are the most important.

Listening to and chanting the glories of God is the best way to access Krishna’s loving service”.
