Krsna is so simple, so thoroughly honest and pure. There is no pretense, no duplicity on His side! As for us if only we could go before Him with an open and simple heart, with no hidden agenda for personal sense enjoyment.Then we could chant His name in pure love and with great ecstasy.
But material desires, stubbornly remain and mostly we struggle with sometimes a light beam of inspiration, like sudden sun rays in an otherwise mostly clouded sky. But Prabhupada gave us practical devotional service, pots to be washed, Deities to be cared for and gradually we can become purified and our chanting will improve with time...
