It is very difficult to make Krishna enter our heart, but once He enters then it’s very difficult to remove Him.
Once we were chanting, but now we are not chanting or we don’t have attraction for chanting. We may not realise, but a lot of time it is because we offended a Vaishnava, we offended some devotee. And now you got the punishment. What is your punishment? Now you don’t like the holy name anymore.
So once we get the bhakti lata bija, we want to make sure that the bija doesn’t remain just a bija- a seed all the time. That seed has to sprout. From the seed comes the seedling and then it has to grow in the land, becomes a bush before it turns into a tree and finally you could pick up some fruits of love of Godhead.
The best offering would be offering ourselves – wholly and solely to propagate the mission of Srila Prabhupada, which is Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s mission.
If Krishna Consciousness has reached your hearts, if it is deeper rooted in your hearts, then it cannot be uprooted.
Sadhu-sanga is required and essential at all levels. Even if you are advanced and you are a pure devotee, even at that time you would never give up sadhu-sanga.
