we don’t need any instrument we just need to become his instrument in today’s world we see sophisticated technological instruments that can help us see stars that are invisible stars that are light years away seeing such impressive sophisticated instruments we may wonder can some instrument help us perceive some technological gadget help us perceive god that’s like asking can some telescope taste cheese cake telescopes are designed to perceive forms not tastes similarly scientific instruments technological instruments are designed to perceive material realities material things not spiritual realities the more sophisticated instrument becomes the more it can perceive material things that are not normally perceivable for us but just by increased sophistication they can’t no material technology can perceive the supreme spiritual reality god Krishna how then can he be perceived by his self revelation gita wisdom explains that god is the supreme spiritual reality only when because he is infinite we can’t perceive him by our own endeavors only when he is pleased by our endeavors he reveals himself to us that’s when we can perceive him indeed we perceive him as the all attractive supreme reality and to absorb in him how can we know if someone is perceiving Krishna or we are also perceiving Krishna by the peace and confidence we develop when we connect with Krishna so indeed so when this is demonstrated in the Bhagavad Gita itself first the Bhagavad Gita calls us through Arjuna to become instrument of Krishna’s will so when Arjuna became Krishna’s instrument after hearing the Gita Krishna tells Arjuna and through him all of us initially to become his instrument and when Arjuna agrees to do so at the end of Gita 1873 he finds that he has become so joy that he has also become peaceful completely peaceful confident and similarly Sanjay also becomes an instrument of Krishna by transmitting Krishna’s message of the Gita to Dhritarashtra and by that Sanjay gets such an experience of Krishna he perceives Krishna to be so attractive that he becomes absorbed in Krishna’s message and Krishna’s form so thus he becomes absorbed so when we turn toward the lord with loving devotion the mood of serving and pleasing him and he will reveal to us how is the attractive principle underlying all attractive things and thus we will start perceiving him everywhere and relishing that perception in this life and forever after thank you
