## Resource

A serious mistake we often make when studying transcendental literature is to study it as a spectator, seeing it as something that is applicable to the personalities involved, but not to us. When we do that, we miss the whole point. Just as the Bhagavad-gītā was not just spoken to Arjuna, all the discussions in the Śrīmad Bhagavad and other books are not just for others, but especially to ourselves. When we see these passages as mere objects of intellectual study or historical narrations, we miss the purpose. Just as Rahūgaṇa, we are currently immersed in the material tree, thinking that we are men or women, that we are the maintainers of our subordinates, and so on. These instructions from Jaḍa Bharata aim to take us out of this material concept and bring us to a platform of knowledge, from which we can gradually free ourselves from material illusion, and from there attain pure devotional service to the Lord.
