Comments on Aazaadii

In "BhagwatPuran" gopiis ask Krishna about the quality of persons who love in return, who love unconditionally, and who envy the persons loving them. These questions came in Gopiis mind during raas-kridaa, when Krishna used to hide to slash away the pride of Gopis that they possess Him. The Gopiis were thinking that even though they love Krishna like crazy, He keeps fooling us and disappears every now and then. Krishna replies the following:

There are some people who don't have duality in mind, i.e., they think everyone as Brahma and hence have an indifferent attitude towards everyone. Such persons are advaita. And the above question does not arises in their context.

However, among others, the person who loves only when he/she gets love is just doing business. It is nothing but selfishness.

Unconditional love is the best form of love, and keeping envy with even those who love you is like doing worst order sin. That leads you nowhere.

Hope you all liked this small piece of anecdote.
