'Yas tu sarvāṇi bhūtāny ātmany evānupaśyati sarva-bhūteṣu cātmānaṁ tato na vijugupsate.' This is Śrī Īśopaniṣad (Mantra 6). Anupaśyati, as Prabhupāda explains in his purport, means that you should systematically see all living beings as parts and parcels of the Lord. And 'na vijugupsate' means, if you have that vision, that systematic vision, it doesn't mean that you suddenly try to imitate the uttama-adhikārī. But what Prabhupāda says is you should follow in the footsteps -anupaśyati, systematically see that there's a soul within everybody. Then na vijugupsate means that you won't hate anybody or any being, because you're not repulsed or attracted by their body, because you're seeing their spirit soul. So that's our directive. When we say to somebody, "You look spiritual," we mean it. Because you look at them and you see there's consciousness coming through their eyes, and they're animated. How is that? It's because there's a soul in the body. That soul's a part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa. What's more, there is Supersoul, you can offer obeisances. Kṛṣṇa says to Uddhava in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, to a dog, because you realize Kṛṣṇa is within the heart of the dog, and therefore you offer obeisances. Now that's śāstra, and that's how we're enjoined to see others. https://vedabase.io/en/library/iso/6 ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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
