Preparing for going back to Godhead

[Paramananda das]

I was having a vivid memory of combing my mothers hair in 1967 ,two years before she died of colon cancer ,life flies so fast and we are each getting closer to death daily , still many of us do not prepare for death by chanting Hare Krsna and remembering Lord Sri Krsna ,Lord Sri Krsna staged His socalled death ,but He went back to Goloka remembering Krsnas disapperance lila helps us also go back to Godhead

ŚB 11.31.27
य एतद् देवदेवस्य विष्णो: कर्माणि जन्म च ।
कीर्तयेच्छ्रद्धया मर्त्य: सर्वपापै: प्रमुच्यते ॥ २७ ॥

ŚB 11.31.14
य एतां प्रातरुत्थाय कृष्णस्य पदवीं पराम् ।
प्रयत: कीर्तयेद् भक्त्या तामेवाप्नोत्यनुत्तमाम् ॥ १४ ॥

Paramananda Das ŚB 11.31.20
रामपत्न्‍यश्च तद्देहमुपगुह्याग्निमाविशन् ।
वसुदेवपत्न्‍यस्तद्गात्रं प्रद्युम्नादीन् हरे: स्‍नुषा: ।
कृष्णपत्न्‍योऽविशन्नग्निं रुक्‍मिण्याद्यास्तदात्मिका: ॥ २० ॥
rāma-patnyaś ca tad-deham
upaguhyāgnim āviśan
vasudeva-patnyas tad-gātraṁ
pradyumnādīn hareḥ snuṣāḥ
kṛṣṇa-patnyo ’viśann agniṁ
rukmiṇy-ādyās tad-ātmikāḥ
Synonyms
rāma-patnyaḥ — the wives of Lord Balarāma; ca — and; tat-deham — His body; upaguhya — embracing; agnim — the fire; āviśan — entered; vasudeva-patnyaḥ — the wives of Vasudeva; tat-gātram — his body; pradyumna-ādīn — Pradyumna and the others; hareḥ — of Lord Hari; snuṣāḥ — the daughters-in-law; kṛṣṇa-patnyaḥ — the wives of Lord Kṛṣṇa; aviśan — entered; agnim — the fire; rukmiṇī-ādyāḥ — led by Queen Rukmiṇī; tat-ātmikāḥ — whose consciousness was completely absorbed in Him.
Translation
The wives of Lord Balarāma also entered the fire and embraced His body, and Vasudeva’s wives entered his fire and embraced his body. The daughters-in-law of Lord Hari entered the funeral fires of their respective husbands, headed by Pradyumna. And Rukmiṇī and the other wives of Lord Kṛṣṇa — whose hearts were completely absorbed in Him — entered His fire.
Purport
It is understood that the anguished scene described here is a display of the Lord’s illusory potency, adding a final dramatic note to Lord Kṛṣṇa’s pastimes on the earth. In reality, Lord Kṛṣṇa returned to His eternal abode in His original body, and His eternal associates returned with Him. This final heartbreaking scene of the Lord’s pastimes is a creation of the Lord’s internal potency that brings the Lord’s manifest pastimes to a perfect dramatic end.

Paramananda Das Sri Krsna left a body so His wifes could enter the fire and do Sati , but that is just a trick of the illusory energy and Krsnas internal energy ,Krsnas body never died ,He is God
