Will our svarupa stay vacant if we start worshiping some other form of the Lord?
From: Dhananjay
As written in our sciptures, we have left our actual swaroop(identity in spiritual world) in Goloka Vrindavan. Suppose I have left my swaroop in Goloka Vrindavan but now I am worshipping Lord Ram, then after leaving my material body, I will be sent to the planet of Lord Ram.As I can never come back from Ram’s Planet ,This means my actual position will remain vacant in Goloka Vrindavan. Please clarify this.

inner growth through yoga this means my actual position will remain vacant please clarify this answer when we are attracted to a particular form of the lord in the material world initially whichever form we are attracted to we primarily learn to move from I centeredness to god centeredness through the attitude of service so even if we are worshipping we originally have a Swarupa in Goloka and we are doing Ram Bhakti now by that Ram Bhakti we learn the Dasya Bhava and once Dasya Bhava is learned after that automatically our attraction will gravitate towards where our Swarupa is so if we have our Swarupa in Goloka Hridavan automatically we will be attracted to lord Krishna and if our Swarupa is towards lord Ram even if we are now doing Krishna Bhakti as we advance more and more our attraction will actually go towards lord Ram so we only in spiritual life we have to do our part and we don’t have to worry about doing Krishna’s part so taking us to where we originally belong is Krishna’s responsibility but wanting to go back there and starting off on that journey or atleast expressing our strong desire to start off on that journey is what is in our hands so we express that desire by practicing intense devotional service so the first thing we should right now focus on is to give up the Bhoga Bhakti and to cultivate Dasya Bhava so even now if we feel that may be my attraction is not so much towards Ram or somebody or some other form of the lord we don’t have to bother about that right now it’s possible that our attraction right now might just be cultural because we had heard about some Ram songs in childhood or heard some Ram songs in childhood it might not necessarily be spiritual so whatever we have heard in childhood creates sometimes a strong impression on us but it doesn’t matter we can continue practicing Krishna Bhakti and as we become advanced, as the Dasya Bhava comes out then the original quality and inclination of the soul starts expressing themselves organically naturally and that time we will automatically gravitate we will automatically move towards the worship of whichever form of the lord is our Ishtadev so Krishna will take care that if our Swaroop is there in the spiritual world that will not stay vacant or inactive or anything like that Krishna will take care of all that we have to take care of our part and that is to cultivate the mood of service and surrender
