Be generous to Krishna, give time, give our energy, give our intelligence, give our wealth, give our words to Krishna and chant.
It is simple as that and then everything will come, everything!
Prabhupada said: 'This movement turns crows into swans' ...
One must be very positive:
“I will do it, I will do it!”
How to do it: “by taking the mercy and then one becomes stronger and more and more empowered and then everything is possible - then no more fall downs.”
Fall downs are a problem for devotees who are falling down from spiritual standard and somehow or other getting entangled in lusty desires and all their reactions.
That is there, that is the problem. But fall down is not something that is inevitable not that:
‘I know, I can’t help it, I can’t get over this, I just can’t do it.’
Then the answer is do lots of service, do lots of service and then by working hard for Krishna we will change and we will be able to do it.
Be generous to Krishna, give time, give our energy, give our intelligence, give our wealth, give our words to Krishna, chant.
As simple as that and then everything will come, everything!
Prabhupada said this movement turns crows into swans.
Crows they eat garbage or rather animals that are squashed on the road and the crows they are feasting!
Sometimes you see squashed crows in India, we see animals squashed on the road and then on top you see crows squashed on the road - they were too much absorbed in their feast and they didn’t notice what was coming and then they themselves are added to the feast as the chutney for the next chunk of crows!
It is like that!
