Good morning friends. Sometimes in our life, we hardly accept reality. We don’t want to fail. We always expect for the best. But life is not like that. Everyone of us will experience failure and success in life. All we have to do is to accept whole heartedly the reality in life.
When Parama Purusa incarnates as Taraka Brahma, the liberating Supreme Entity, at a certain transitional period, the people of that period invariably enjoy some special privileges. As Vraja Krishna and Parthasarathi, the Lord helps people find the path of spirituality.
When people attain progress in the realm of spiritual realization, that progress is divided into six stages. At the stage of salokya, people feel that they have come onto the earth at the same time as Parama Purusa. This brings a sense of ecstasy. This state of bliss is termed salokya.

It’s good to see you.” Then He caught sight of Duryodhana and said, “Welcome Duryodhana, you have come too.
