True universal love flows naturally from God consciousness; technique, not theory, transforms the heart.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Bhagavad-gītā 10.8 — January 11, 1967, New York 670111BG-NEW YORK [20:42 Minutes] Prabhupāda: ...iti matvā bhajante māṁ budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ [Bg. 10.8]: [I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from Me. The wise who know this perfectly engage in My devotional service and worship Me with all their hearts.] "I am the origin of everything." Everything means universe also. Whatever you can imagine, that comes within the category of "everything." So if Kṛṣṇa is the source of everything, then if you love Kṛṣṇa, then you love universe.
Actually that is so. If you love your father, then you love your brother. If you love your country, then you love your countrymen. Suppose we are in foreign country, and here is one gentleman India, from India; I am from India. So naturally we ask, "Oh, you come from India?
Which part of India you come?" Why attraction for that person? Because I love India. And because he happens to be Indian, therefore I love him. So the love begins from the origin. If you love your body, then you love your finger.
If you are careless of your body, your health, you don't care for your finger. Therefore Bhagavad-gītā says that, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavo mattaḥ sarvaṁ pravartate iti matvā [bhajante māṁ] budhā bhāva-samanvitāḥ [Bg. 10.8] Iti matvā bhajante mām. One who has understood this fact, that God is the origin of all emanation... One who has understood this fact very nicely, scientifically, then, by loving God, you love everything, universe. If you think that "God is something manufactured by my imagination," then you cannot love universe or God.
You have to understand the position of God. In every literature, in every scripture... Just like in your Bible it is said, "God said, 'Let there be creation.' So there was creation." So creation is the universe. So God created this universe.
So if you love God, then you love the universe. That is automatically. If I say, "I love my body"—everyone loves his body—that does not mean I do not love my finger. So a God conscious person... There is a nice example.
A hunter—in Sanskrit language it is called vyādha—he was hunting in the forest and killing the animals, boar and other, deer and so many animals—hunter's business is to kill animals—so half..., half-dead. And Nārada was passing through that road. He saw that "These half-dead animals are flapping. Who has killed them in that way, half-dead?
