When the big dark cloud of ignorance enters into our lives and covers the full moon of God’s presence in our hearts, it leaves our entire life and the whole world in darkness. What is within reflects in everything without. A person’s consciousness within is manifested everywhere through his or her eyes, ears, and all of the senses. If we see the beauty of God within our own lives, we see the beauty of God everywhere through our senses. But if there is darkness in our hearts, if we are forgetful of God, then we will see only darkness everywhere. This is a beautiful lesson to be learnt. When our hearts are free of the clouds of our ignorant ways of thinking, we perceive everything as it is like a clear visible autumn night. Let the moon of God come into our hearts to dispel all darkness and fear. Let our mind be like the skies clear from these clouds. When we perceive that all the living beings are like brilliant illuminant stars and God as the full moon, then there is actual beauty and love in our lives.

Radhanath swami goes to the root of the disease, not the symptoms. If the heart is dark, everything will be dark for us. Therefore saintly people like Radhanth Swami are more concerned with cleaning the internal environment along with the external. Thank you Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
The darkness in our heart is basically because of the absence of spiritual knowledge. Radhanath Swami wants us to fill up our hearts & mind with Vedic principles so that we can dispel all contaminations within our minds & hearts and thus experience the true love of God.

Very important lesson. Reminded me of a saying “A Person suffering from yellow Jaundice , for him the whole world appears with a tinge of yellow”
A mind devoid of God-consciousness would become a devil’s workshop. That is why we need to associate with pure devotees like Radhanath Swami who live their life in the service of God.
Let the moon of God come into our hearts to dispel all darkness and fear- H H Radhnath Swami
A dark mind & a dark heart can only think evil. We need to illuminate these with the spiritual instructions of saints such as Radhanath Swami who teach us humility, compassion & love for God
We can change the world just by changing our outlook!
With people like Radhanath Swami’s association, our darkness of heart will go far away from us and brings closer to Knowledge and so closer to GOD.
Thank you very much for sharing such a nice article.
With a little faith in scriptures we can enlighten our hearts with the knowledge of the Supreme.When the darkness of ignorance in our hearts is dispelled by this enlightenment, we can percieve God in our hearts and we can see ourselves as part and parcel of Him.Thus we can experience love and beauty in our lives.Nice article by Radhanath Swami.

Radhanath swami once explained that if you want to spread happiness in this world, we must have internal happiness first in ourselves, because we cannot give what we do not have
Thanks for sharing
This is such a powerful teaching by Radhanath Swami. He is asking us to remove our coloured glasses while looking at others.
Radhanath Swami Maharaj’s emphasis on the darkness in our heart is so true as what is with in our heart that we see outside too.
The analogy suits the point so well. It becomes so clear when Radhanth Swami explains it with such simple examples.

This is the clear instruction from Radhanath Swami. Thank you Radhanath Swami for driving away our ignorance with a torch of Your transcendental knowledge.
While listening to Radhanath Swami Maharaj lectures, I feel that covering of illussion is eradicating. His teachings gives such a sharp sword like knowledge.

Thank you Radhanath swami for tellijg us how to come out of ignorance by remebering the Lord always.

Wonderful!
We have a very few rare Spiritual teachers on this planet like Radhanath Swami who are always connected to the Spiritual plane (can perceive the presence of Lord within and without) and dedicating their life to teach others this science.
Without help of such great Spiritual masters how can we ever find out about these subtle aspects as explained above? Without such help, we all define our own path on Spiritual life and reach a very different destination than the Supreme Absolute Truth.
Radhanath Swami Maharaj truly brings out the shining Supreme truth so that our eyes blinded by ignorance are opened.
Radhanath swami is so eloquent, as in giving the message with minimum words… the moon of God’s presence in our heart is such an important phrase… that means without it is simply all darkness. that means full of confusion and uncertainty
Wonderful Article. Krishna is like sun and ignorance is darkness. Where there is sun there can be no darkness. Likewise where there is Krishna there can be no ignorance. If we lovingly acknowledge presence of Krishna within us, we will see Krishna all around us.
Very beautiful article. Maharaj is speaking his heart. He wants everyone to be aware of the Supreme and be free of troubles.There is also a promise that he would help us realize the spiritual path. We must seek his shelter submissively.
Radhanath Swami is amazing.
Radhanath Swami Maharaj points out to us that what is within will be reflected without. so the process is to start from our own internal cleansing and then it will be useful. thank you for this article,.
Radhanath Swami is showing us how to go from darkness to light, from ignorance to knowledge and from death to eternity.
Radhanath maharaj is giving us the direction for how to receive the love of God.
“Let the moon of God come into our hearts to dispel all darkness and fear”
Maharaj also suggesting the way to get God’s love is to serve.
Amiable brief and this enter helped me alot in my college assignement. Gratefulness you for your information.
God is within our hearts but we are blinded with ignorance and so are covered with our own sinful desires which is like smoke which covers the pure nature of the heart. By this process of devotion we can clean the heart and thus see the lord face to face. yes face to face. This is the promise given by SRila Prabhupada. We should have faith. Just stick to the process.
Basically God is the reservoir of all good qualities. Therefore Radhanath Swami says that if we are Godless(atheist), then we will be bereft of good qualities. And it will then be our natural tendency to see everyone similarly.
The Absolute Truth simply tells us that accepting God’s presence in our hearts and lives IS real knowledge and it dispels ignorance, while the so-called educational institutions would have us believe that there is no place for God in our lives.
THANK A LOT FOR SHARING THIS
So nicely Radhanath swami has pointed the deeper truth of life.
Very nice article.
Nice lesson remembering GOD will remove all our ignorance and we will see things in right spirit, thank you Radhanath swami.
Radhanath Swami Maharaj makes us go for the highest aspirations in life. I truly wish to be fully enlightened from within.
Radhanath Swami makes a profound statement here “What is within reflects in everything without”. We have to become God conscious otherwise we will remain helpless and hopeless.
If we actually want to spread the love throughout the world, following words from HH Radhanath Swami maharaj are indispensable. “Let our mind be like the skies clear from these clouds. When we perceive that all the living beings like brilliant illuminant stars and God as the full moon, then there is actual beauty and love in our lives.”
So beautiful analogy…thank you Radhanath Swami Maharaj
The instruction “What is within reflects in everything without” is very beautifully explained by Radhanath Swami. Very meaningful instructions have been given here….
Radhanath Swami explaims even complex philosophical points with such easy example that it touches the heart of the listener
Radhanath Swami has given an amazing analogy of star vs the moon bringing clarity toall doubts spiritual seeker could have
Srila Radhanath Swami makes a very deep and profound statement – whatever is our consciousness within, will be manifested everywhere. The only way to remove the darkness from our hearts is by letting the moon of God rise within our hearts. This is possible only by the mercy of a pure devotee of the Lord, like Srila Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
Radhanath Swami is clearly emphasizing the importance of cleansing our consciousness and developing God Consciousness, Krishna Consciousness to actually appreciate the World around us which is nothing else but the energy of the Lord. If we can’t appreciate what is near us, where is the question of appreciating the all beautiful Supreme Person who is more beautiful and sweet than the most beautiful thing of this world…
Radhanath Swami Maharaj mentions: What is within reflects in everything without. Thanks for the beautiful elaboration on this. We hope to completely illuminate our hearts some day, through the loving guidance of Radhanath Swami Maharaj.
Thank you for this wonderful article.
So true. Also what you have that you can give. If you have no love, you can’t give love…
