For those who are/were addicted to games know very well that 'Grand Theft Auto' is an open world action-adventure video game series. Game is consisting of action-adventure, driving, third-person shooting, occasional role-playing, stealth, and racing elements. Player is given some mission with many obstacles, he has to face troubles and complete the mission, game is still so popular and addictive that developers have introduced 6th edition.
However popular or attractive game may be it just breaks away our connection with real world and we start searching for satisfaction in virtual world by winning matches or completing some imaginary targets. Especially games are so addictive, I remember my one of the classmate who would steal money of his parents to play games in cyber cafe, he would forget about everything and just spent his hours achieving so called 'goals'. Everyone has real mission, purpose of life and that is to develop love for Supreme Person, the God and at the end of this life enter into His real eternal abode but when one forgets real aim he runs after imaginary aims may that be games or something else.
How to develop Love for God? Who has time in modern world to practice Bhakti?...actually Bhakti is very simple, it's explained hearing the glories of God(Sravanam) is one of the easiest way to develop strong love and attachment to Him. We just need to give sincere aural reception to those who are spiritually advanced. When we listen to such nectarine pastimes of lord our hearts get freed from all misgivings of the world. There are unlimited pastimes of Lord and one of them is stealing of butter from houses of vrindavana gopis. Lords pastimes provides lots of fun to the hearers and simultaneously give the valuable lessons too!! These all pastimes are ever fresh and doesn't need any editions like games.
Mother Yashoda would make butter for Lord everyday but still He would go to the other gopis to eat their butter which would be kept many times on raised platform but still Lord Krishna and His friends by tricks would reach these pots, they broke pots and ate fresh butter. Similarly when our hearts gets churned with the process of Bhakti it becomes white and pure like butter there after wherever you hide it Lord will search for it and enter into it thus filling the heart with pure love for Him. This is positive addiction which is most desired by saintly people of all times. In conclusion we always like to hear about most chivalrous, dramatic, romantic stories of beautiful, powerful personalities and we search them in cimenams, movies, sports, games and everywhere except scriptures, but God has performed all kinds of activities, hearing of which can attract the hearts and has the power to fulfil all human emotions and keep us blissful and happy till the end of this life and after life for eternity.
