Have you ever walked out of your āśrama and had somebody come up to you and say, "You look tired"? Have you ever had that? How do you feel after that? You go to the mirror and you're looking like, "Yeah, maybe I do look tired." All day long you're thinking about it, and you go home and say, "Hey, do I look tired?" They are like, "Yeah, you look tired." Like, "Oh." Or what if somebody comes up to you and they go, "You look terrible"? How do you feel? Yeah. Then you go to other people, "How do I look to you?" We are very protective of our, or deliberate about the way we present ourselves to the world. And everybody wants to look all spruced up when they go out and meet people. They don't like it if somebody says, "Oh, you look tired, you look sick, you look terrible." And all of these affect the consciousness of the person, as soon as somebody observes that, whether it's true or not. What's really true is they're spiritual, and they do have a secret, which is that they're eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa; they have just forgotten it. So if you make the statement, then ask the question, there's a chemical reaction, just like epoxy glue. When I was a kid, there used to be two tubes, because it wasn't like Super Glue, where you just do one thing and it sticks together. It always annoyed me as a kid; I would tell my father, "Why do they have to have two tubes?" Because when they mix together, that's when there's a chemical reaction, and then it becomes a solid on a molecular level, it holds the thing together. So these two things go together, and what are they? Audience: You look spiritual, what is your secret? And if you just walk up to people all day long and said, "Excuse me, you look spiritual. What's your secret?" I guarantee you will sell tons of books, because people are in a state of self-realization when you ask these two questions, and when you hand the book over, they'll remember, "I'm spirit soul." It's like, "Yeah, I've been waiting for this my whole life." ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #livetogive #bookdistribution #sankirtan #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
