Why: entering the earth, Krishna sustains all beings by his energy, and becoming the flavorful moon, nourishes all plants, again describing a sustaining presence operating quietly underneath very ordinary, physical processes like growth and nourishment.
In life: the ordinary, physical processes sustaining your life, food growing, your own body's basic functioning, are themselves worth some real recognition and gratitude, not just the more obviously meaningful or dramatic parts of your existence.
Teaching: take a moment today to genuinely notice and appreciate one entirely ordinary, physical process sustaining your life, digestion, growth, basic bodily function, that you normally take completely for granted.
