What we offer to Lord that we enjoy

Prasada Anta Shukena
Hridaya Komola Virajaman
Atma Janna Prakritastha
Prakrita Siddha Isthitaman

Just like honoring prasadam at the end of worship one devotee can get highest pleasure of worshipping Lord, similarly resting on the heart of Lord one can get highest spiritual pleasure. Thus by achieving pure knowledge of soul and resting that one wise can live forever

PURPORT:

What is the highest knowledge of self? How can one rest on wisdom of self? It is like the end of worship and honoring prasad. Prasad is food that is offered to Lord and Lord has taken. When one takes prasad that goes within the stomach and one enjoys the entire mood of worship. Similarly, when one devotee gets mercy of Lord and Lord takes that devotee into His own heart. Devetee always remembers Lord and Lord also remembers that devotee always. In that way the devotee enjoys always what Lord Himself enjoys always. It is the same way that Lord takes all offerings of devotees and the offering of food is left as prasad. Again devotees always enjoys the same food that has been offered to Lord in great love and pleasure with highest delight. Thus pleasure of devotees are same as Lord because both have enjoyed the same food that is offered in utmost care and love. So the ultimate knowledge of self is enjoying what Lord is enjoying. And because of this, one needs to get place in the supreme heart of Lord. And that is called atma siddha. In the same way, If one devotee is chanting name of Lord Hari, Lord Hari is also thinking of that name of devotee. When Lord thinks about that devotee ultimately that devotee get permanent place within heart of Lord. In that way that supreme devotee also enjoys what Lord is enjoying. That's why it is told that once this knowledge has been tested by devotees then one has achieved real knowledge about soul. That is called "Atma Janna Prakritastha". Again once this knowledge is practice in our everyday life like "what we offer to Lord that we enjoy" then we live like one wise that is called "Prakrita Siddha Isthitaman". All glory to Hari! All glory to Prabhupada! All glory to Mohaprabhu! All glory to Pancha Tattva! All glory to Narahari Narashima Dev! All glory to associates Vaisnavas! Hare Krsna! Haribol!
