‘Self’ Emergency CHAD Plan!



‘Self’ Emergency CHAD Plan!

We all recognize that the frequency of catasrophes the living entities are facing in this world are increasing.When a disaster strikes,all our hard earned wealth, dreams and loving realtionships are washed off within few moments. According to Padma Purana, "A living entity is traveling or evolving from lower grades of life to the higher grades of life in 8,400,000 species of life!". Srila Prabhuad mentions that the greatest opportunity of human life is that one should use the elevated human consciousness to understand himself and God in an eternal loving relationship and to miss this opportunity is the greatest tragedy!

Businessweek magazine suggests that "You can do better. To protect your business, create an emergency plan that includes phone lists, alternative working spaces and processes, and, most critically, a procedure to back up vital data. Finally, make sure you have the insurance coverage you'll need to make up for lost revenues or rebuild your business." As living entities - spiritual sparks , we should also have an emergency plan to sustain in our 'real business' of 'Going back to Godhead'. Srila Prabhupad suggests that "We should read, how Krishna protects the demigods or the devotees. We should seek protection of Krishna. This world is so dangerous. It is said...at every step there is danger. But if we take shelter,..., if we take shelter of the lotus feet of Murari, under whose lotus feet the whole mahat-tattva, cosmic manifestation, is resting, then this big ocean of birth and death, we can cross very easily... The whole ocean becomes like a spot, a small spot, created by the impression of the hoof..." - (Bhagavad-gita 7.5 Lecture,Vrndavana, August 11, 1974)

Reciting Bhagavad-Gita helps us remember this naked truth of the temporary miserable material world and the eternal blissful nature of spiritual world. Simply by giving our attention and concentration to CHAD everyday for a minimum of 5-10 minutes, we accumulate tremendous amount of spiritual wealth that can never be taken away by any powerful deadly agents in any of three worlds. Caring for our real 'self' by doing CHAD is one of the best ways to 'selflessly' perform the greatest welfare work for our fellow beings!

In order to fan within us this burning urgency of Lord Krishna's limitless compassion for the innumerable innocent souls, who are incessantly suffering within this world, our dear CHAD fouder HG Vaisesika Prabhu has released the next 3 month plan as outlined below below. As Prabhuji always suggests, "today, and everyday, may we recite the divine slokas in Bhagavad-gita not by rote. Rather, with the urgency of a man or woman trapped in a burning house, let sing them aloud, calling for Krsna’s protection."
