We Can Live in the Spiritual World

It's wonderful to be staying here again at ISKCON

Melbourne. It is especially sweet because Melbourne is
one of the places of Srila Prabhupada's transcendental
pastimes. When he came here 1974 he declared on
Tuesday 25 June:

"So you can be in the material world or the spiritual

world as you desire. If you want to remain in the spiritual
world, this temple is the spiritual world. We are not living
in Melbourne. This temple is not Melbourne. It is
Vaikuntha. It is Vrindavana."

It is simply up to us which world we want to live in. If we

choose to try to be an independent enjoyer, then we
must live in the material world, which is so full of stress
and anxiety. And if we choose to live as Krishna's
servants to let Him enjoy us, we will then live in the
spiritual world free from all anxieties tasting ever-
increasing happiness.

The choice is ours. What do you choose?
