This morning, I woke up and I was thinking of all the things I had to do and problems I had to solve, and "How am I going to do this all?" And then I just started praying, and I said, "Kṛṣṇa," there's a picture of Kṛṣṇa on my wall, and I can see Him as soon as I wake up, "Kṛṣṇa, I think I need a little help. If You could empower me to deal with all the duties that I have to do today." And I immediately felt satisfied, because I just left it to Kṛṣṇa.
So Caitanya Mahāprabhu taught this simple process. It's very intuitive. It feels quite natural. There are simple parts to it, and He wanted everyone to be able to participate in it. And He also said, "Become a gardener yourself. Tend to your own garden, grow the seed in your heart, let it fructify." Kuñjarī, is she here or is she in class? Give me—pass on the verse number of the verse you were saying in the car on the way here, and we'll read it. I promised I'd read it in the class. It relates to what we're saying. It's her new favorite verse.
And so He also said, "When you water the tree and it grows up, it'll get lots of flowers on it, and after flowers come fruits, right?" Everyone say, "Yes," yeah, just in case you didn't know that. And then, then He said, "You can enjoy the fruits, but there are too many. There are too many fruits for one person to eat." And He said that about Himself. "I'm growing all these gardens in people's hearts everywhere, and all the fruits are coming out. There are so many I can't eat them all." And therefore, He said, "Everybody distribute these fruits." So that's how you can be employed, distributing the fruits that come out of the bhakti creeper and are available to everybody. And when you do, then it becomes a way of reconfirming how nice the fruits are, because when you give them to other people, and you see them eating them, and then they get the same result—that they start to smile, and then they'll laugh, and then they'll chant, and sometimes they'll dance, because they ate the fruit. And then He said, "Then you'll remember how nice it is."
