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.
The spiritual master sows the seed of bhakti lata bija in the hearts, which are ready, fertile, some cultivation is already done.
Our bhakti is protected in the association of devotees. Bhakti grows, flourishes, thrives in the association of devotees.
