One of the very first weaknesses of heart is attachment to things that have no relationship with Krishna. We may say that everything has a relationship with Krishna and we would be correct, but that doesn’t mean just any attachment is conducive to the development of love of God. Actually, if we were to truly see the relationship between Krishna and matter, we would find it impossible to be attached to anything but Krishna. We say we’re attached to matter because of its relationship with Krishna, but that doesn’t seem to be the case for most of us. If we understand matter and spirit properly, we will know that everything exists only for Krishna’s pleasure, and we will not feel ownership toward anything.
