EVERYTHING IS KRISHNA

1. Understand Your Motivation

 Reflect on why Krishna is your priority. Is it for self-realization,


devotion, guidance, or peace?

Krishna is my priority because he is everything to me … self realization; a


guide; a mentor; gives me peace.

Krishna means happiness; protection; devotion

with a manageable number of rounds, like 4 or 8, and gradually
increase).

Krishna as a friend or guide.

Krishna.

Krishna outlines in the Bhagavad Gita.

realizations.

Krishna.

9. Cultivate a Krishna-Centric Mindset

leisure.

10. Surrender with Love

 Always remember Krishna’s promise in the Bhagavad Gita:

 Surrender doesn’t mean giving up—it means trusting Krishna and
aligning your will with His divine plan.
