72 On the Way to Krsna

literatures give us information that there are count-
less planets filled with living entities with different
types of bodies. As, by making some material adjust-
ment, we may qualify to enter into different material
planets, by qualification we can enter into the spiri-
tual planet where the Supreme Lord resides.

yanti deva-vrata devan
pitrn yanti pitr-vratah
bhutani yanti bhutejya
yanti mad-yajino’ pi mam
“Those who worship the demigods will take birth
among the demigods; those who worship ancestors
go to the ancestors; and those who worship Me will
live with Me.” (Bg. 9.25)

Those who are trying to enter higher planets can
go there, and those who are trying to qualify to
enter into Goloka Vrndavana, the planet of Krsna,
can also enter there by the process of Krsna con-
sciousness. Before going to India, we may acquire
a description of what the country is like; the hearing
of a place is the first experience. Similarly, if we
want to get information about the planet where God
lives, we have to hear. We cannot immediately make
an experiment and go there. That is not possible.
But we have so many descriptions of the supreme
planet in Vedic literature. For instance, the Brahma-
samhita states:

cintamanti-prakara-sadmasu kalpa-vurksa-
laksavrtesu surabhir abhipalayantam

laksmi-sahasra-sata-sambhrama-sevyamanam
govindam adi-purusam tam aham bhajami
