Bhagavad - Gita As it is chapter 5 Verse 3:

jñeyaḥ sa nitya-sannyāsī
yo na dveṣṭi na kāńkṣati
nirdvandvo hi mahā-bāho
sukhaḿ bandhāt pramucyate

Purport:

One who neither hates nor desires the fruits of his activities is known to be always renonuced. Such a person free from all dualities, easily overcomes all the material bondage and is completely liberated, O mighty Armed Arjuna.

One who is fully in Krsna conciousness is always a renouncer because he feels neither hatred nor desire for the fruits of his actions. Such a renouncer, dedicated to the transcedental loving service of the lord, is fully qualified in knowlegde because he knows his constitutional position in his relationship with Krsna. He knows fully well that Krsna is whole and he is part and parcel of Krsna. Such knowlegde is perfect because it is qualitatively and quantitatively correct. The concept of oness with Krsna is incorrect because the part cannot be equal to the whole. Knowlegde that one is one in quality but different in quantity is correct transcedental knowlegde leading one to became full in himself, having nothing to aspire to or lament over. There is no duality in his mind because whatever he does, he does for Krsna. Being freed from the platform of dualities, he is liberated - even in his mind

  • That seems like a good idea. Perhaps it's time for us to take the hint and give it a real shot, surrendering our lives to the lotus feet of Krsna. That would be a beautiful thing, others have done it before and not regretted it, have become pure Bhaktas.
    • true...as we pledge our love for krsna and leave everthing to him............we became free from all the tensions because we know whatever we do is for krsna so why the worry of success and failure...just as a child plays freely under the guidance of its parents ....knowing very well that his parents are always there to protect him.....a devotee works easily in this material world.....knowing very well that what has happened in the past is because of Krsna and whatever that will happen in the future will happen because of Krsna as well....he is only the instrument......so why do we associate personally with all this material actions.......and became entangled in the happy and sorrow reactions of it.......knowning well that even a leave of a tree does not dare to shake without the permission of Krsna, so what to say about the material world and its actions is real knowlegde......................
