The problem is that without sufficient realization of Krishna, we cannot trust anyone who appears to either need us or want us.

Our only choice is to turn to Krishna.

Therefore we should not become like ostriches simply sticking our head in the sand, simply thinking about our own salvation.

That is the highest method of worship.

Your mind will always think that “Oh yes, I am the most qualified, I am more advanced than anyone else and because I am the most determined, that’s why I am the most advanced”.

What are the eternally liberated souls doing? Krishna says "They are always chanting My glories, satatam kirtayanto mam, yatantas ca dradha vratah [Bg. 9.14]. They are bowing down before Me with great determination, worshiping Me. I am everything to them. They don’t know anyone but Me." And, Krishna says, “Because they don’t know anyone but Me, I don’t know anyone but them”. This is love. This love is not terminated at the end of this life.
