We All Make Mistakes

In this material world we are all prone to make mistakes, and thus we often do so. This is our longstanding tendency stemming from our primeval mistake of desiring to enjoy separately from God. Originally we were situated with Him in His unlimitedly sweet pastimes in the spiritual world. But due to our foolish enviousness of His position as the Supreme we desired to be one like Him. This is compared to the small child who saw the moon in the sky and desired to have it as her toy. Her mother satisfied her desire by giving her a mirror in her hand in which the moon was reflected. The child did not really have the moon. She only had the reflection. But she thought she had the moon in her hand. In this way the mother satisfied her. In the same way due to our burning desire to be the Supreme, Krishna has given us a world in which we can think that we are the Supreme. Now is the time for us to realize what a ridiculous mistake we made and to get back to our original position as the eternal servants of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the spiritual world.
