Goal of Life and How to achieve it

What is goal of Life and How to achieve it?

HH Romapada Swami talks about the Goal of Life and the means to achieve it. He refers to the conversation between Lord Chaitanya and Ramananda Roy where in Mahaprabhu gives importance to the verse “…sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vāṅ-manobhir..” . The essence being, one is encouraged to stay in his/her position, either as householder or student etc, according to ones nature, being guided by Dharma and within that chamber, one is supposed to hear the topics of transcendence and let it enter ones heart, let it enter ones being and live ones life according to that. If one lives in consciousness of Krsna, they will surely go back to Godhead. Example of Arjuna is given, where he is encouraged to stay in his position as a warrior and householder and act according to his nature to please Krsna.
