A truly educated man rises to Krishna Consciousness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Transcendental knowledge, by which consciousness is absorbed into Krishna’s lotus feet, is the original or real vidya, which cuts the bonds of avidya. Krishna’s holy name is the life of that wife, the Vidya, who focuses her mind on Krishna’s lotus feet. Chanting the holy name increases the ocean of happiness. This is highlighted in Srimad-Bhagavatam (8.3.20):<\/span><\/p>\n

ekantino yasya na kancanartham<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

vanchanti ye vai bhagavat-prapannah<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
