They were willing to exchange chunks of their life, the huge, all of their life.
What were they giving it up for? The, the Vedic literatures are saying if you're gonna give up, which all of us have to do, right? Everybody's giving up.
If you're gonna sacrifice, what do you sacrifice for? You sacrifice for Krishna.
Even if you wanna just approach it theoretically, there's this whole presentation that there's an absolute truth, that from which everything comes- Yeah ... that has multifarious energies that are, that, that the world that you're moving around in right now is made of, that your body is made of, that your mind is made of, that you're made of.
And, and, and the whole thing is so in-depth, so thorough, uh, so dense, so consistent, so brilliant, so insightful.
