Engage all your intelligence in me. Thus you will live in me always. Without a doubt. One who is engaged in Lord Krishna's devotional service lives in a direct relationship with the Supreme Lord. So there is no doubt that his position is transcendental. From the very beginning. A devotee does not live on the material plane. He lives in Krishna, the holy name of the Lord and the Lord are non different. Therefore, when a devotee chants Hare Krishna, Krishna, Krishna. Krishna and his internal potency are dancing on the tongue of the devotee. When he offers Krishna food, Krishna directly accepts these eatables and the devotee becomes Krishnaised by eating the remnants. One who does not engage in such service cannot understand how this is. So although this is a process recommended in the Bhagavad Gita and in other Vedic literatures.
Hello anybody here that only speaks to. Let's welcome here Dr. Ruth where our mercy come to give me some stage therapy. They are brought by Sarah Rufus daughter. So in this verse in the Bhagavad Gita we can. This is a very important verse. Krishna is advising that we should fix our mind on him. If we do this, we always live with Krishna. Living with Krishna is how we want to live with Krishna. We have a very good rule here. We live with Krishna very easily because we are engaged in Ka service. You see, it's very easy for people to engage in Krishna service. Just how we eat. We offer our food to Krishna. We eat the remnants of Krishna. That means Prashanth. And in this way we get our body spiritualized. That's what look that's called. You are what you eat. You are what you eat. So how many like Prashant? So I had one lady. She was a very wealthy lady. She came to my Lord and she said I can cook a kitchen with rice and dalji with all expensive ingredients with Kitcheners and tired of selling won't taste as good as your Kishim. What is your shaker? See, our secret is that Krishna has tasted the Kishweet. One time Lord Chaitanya came to see. We heard a pundit in general he was originally in Maunilani but he was converted by Lord Shaitan to Elisheva. So he came right out of Mangal Arctic. She silent morning whiterly and he came and said this is a nano artery Bashana. This is the cashews offered to Lord Jairian so please accept. So he took it and he ate. So then Lord sit down and said how you are a snorta. You are Ramen and Pierre eating. Brush your teeth, go to the bathroom. How are you eating? How are you doing this? And he responded with a quotation. You see, whenever we get Javen Prashad without considering time, place or anything we should take it and we should serve it. So he laughed. He said I was just 10 single. You are now really a devotee. Then he turned to his other associates why Here, take this. How does it taste? So they all took the kashu and they said oh it's wonderful. He said nut, why you finding it so wonderful? And so they didn't know. He said because this was mixed with the unwritten with the nectar of Krishna's lotus mouth Therefore it has a special taste. So this is Vishak. By taking Vishak we are getting every day Krishna Devershi, how untorate some people are. They don't take Prashada easily. They can take easily but they don't take. So this is. You see our mission is to give people Krishna Tusha at the feast of Fesha. This is ecarcy. We don't take grain, cereals and poulters but we still manage to have a very good meal with fruits and vegetables and fruits and nuts and other things. There's some actually Akadasis one thing of days because get more Saudis but later I found out I was born on a karas so the devotees have to eat two pieces one at cottage fast there's only 250 preparations and next day they have their grain feast that's 1008 in Lathmore. I don't know, I'm hearing tonight how many her race is younger, that's and they are. You see our magnolia votings they won't leave us with a courtesy against fasting. They want rice. So many are famous for lemon rice and yogurt rice. We don't have any other festivities on the other taste One day, yes Buddha, one day great things. So similarly we can serve Krishna in very easy ways. We alter our mind, our thoughts, our deeds to Krishna in this way we are always living with Krishna. So we want all of you to live with Krishna always. Lord Chaitanya's. I think it was Naranandasatakur he sang whether you're a Brahmachari calling her in their house. So whether you live in the ashram or you live in a house everyone should check. You see sometimes in the. Tonight there's a traffic jam. You get stuck. What to do? They're stuck in the jam. What to do? What to do? So I told the people one of our lectures at Chennai Rathyatra. If you're already in the cube with the bus, you can chant. So Sandhar Nanda, whether you're in a car or whether you're in a dust you can chant the holy name of the Krishna. Krishna. Krishna. So now we'll have the question and answer.
