Word by Word
You become what you worship—this is the law of consciousness itself. When you offer devotion to the gods, you ascend to their realms; when you honor ancestors, you walk their path; when you serve lower forces, you bind yourself to them.
But when you turn your entire being toward Krishna, toward the infinite Self within all things, you come to Me—you come Home to what you have always been. In your daily life, this means choosing your inner focus with absolute care: what you contemplate, revere, and serve shapes not just your destiny but your very nature.
