Namaste everyone,
I'm Bhaktina and am 23 years old. Couple of years ago my intuition lead me to one mystical forum, on which I was introduced to Hindu teachings and way of life. At that time my beliefs were atheistic, so I had hard time understanding Sanatan Dharma, even though I was very attracted to it at the same time. Friend suggested I should read Bhagavad-Gita As It Is, and so I did. I fell in love with Krishna immediately, which was a miracle for me, because I did not understand his teachings at all. I just developed feelings for Him, He became my best friend and His unconditional love helped me get through very hard times in my life.
As I was mostly exposed to ISKCON teachings, I had no idea about other types of philosophies that describe Shiva or Vishnu as Supreme God. I've seen those two as demigods, as Srila Prabhupada described them. For 3 years Krishna was the Only One for me, and I payed little or no attention to any other "demigods" whatsoever. So few days ago I stumbled upon this beautiful forum, and decided to join you. I'm here to learn, explore and expand my consciousness. I have many questions to ask, and I'll do so in near future. I hope I did not offend anyone, as I'm still kinda new to all this and want to learn as much as possible. My goal is to find perfect kind of spiritual day-to-day practice, as I'm always trying out new things and can never settle on one path. It's time to settle and choose just one. Also, I'm very happy I can connect with people who's no.1. priority in life is spiritual practice. There's so much love and kindness on this forum, so I'm really blessed to be here. Much love to you all.
Blessings!
