Devotional service means that we have a whole lifetime, a fulfilling lifetime, of all these activities. There are so many that it's hard to choose from, which one wants to do next. Material life, on the other hand, by contrast, seems ludicrous. I was just comparing notes with Devavrata last night. He said something that I have noticed many times and even mentioned that at the Los Angeles Ratha-yātrā: everyone lives on one block, all the devotees. So, if you stay there and do service and go to Maṅgal Ārti, you really don't have to leave the atmosphere of the temple at all because you just walk across the street and go back. And usually, we stay there for a few days to prepare for the Ratha-yātrā, and then you get in a car, you go to the Ratha-yātrā, and you get dropped off right at the cart, so you're still in that atmosphere. You get to the festival, you're there, and then when you have to go home, you have to walk across The Venice Beach boardwalk, and there you notice a completely different environment. There is always a very noticeable contrast between the spiritual energy and the material energy. And one of my thoughts oftentimes is, "I'm surprised that people are still doing that," because I start thinking like the whole world's like what we do: sevā and having kīrtan and prasādam. And then when I see somebody else doing it, "Oh, yeah, right, it's still going on." That's a sign of how devotees can become absorbed in devotional service and no longer feel fearful, and also not in anxiety, because they are being fully satisfied.

Then, of course, there's the philosophy. As Prabhupāda writes in the Śrī Īśopaniṣad, "All forms of incompleteness are experienced due to incomplete knowledge of the complete whole." By hearing in association with devotees, like in a Bhāgavatam class, there is also an intellectual satisfaction, where we feel that what we are doing it's all reasonable, it's well-reasoned . It's not just some whimsical activity. Like the philosophical statements of the Bhagavad-gītā and the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are so profound that they satisfy the mind. In fact, I often have the feeling, "How do they know everything?" When we read the Bhāgavatam and they describe what material life is like, it's like, "How do they know that?" They know all the psychology of why someone would be in the material world, and what it feels like to be trounced by the material energy. The sages describe it so accurately that one feels to be properly situated in devotional service. So Caitanya Mahāprabhu gave these basic concepts that anybody can investigate for themselves.

In the Bhāgavatam, there is a description of the various levels of the mind. In one of them, when we are exposed to it, we are really just listening to the echo of all the things we have been doing—not just this lifetime, but previous lifetimes. And it's more or less described as chatter. So we are advised, really, to rise above that.

It takes practice to be able to enter into higher levels of concentration on The Holy Name of the Lord and also to purify the consciousness, as I was just saying to Kṛṣṇa Prabhu that you know maybe it's natural we think of service or something like that. But really, the objective of japa is described in one śāstra: where you put your mind in the mantra and the mantra in your mind. With ordinary objects, you can't do that, but with the mantra, you can. So, the more we can become focused and absorbed in the name and the feeling of chanting first that, "Please engage me in Your service," the more effective our japa will be.

The first section was, 'Change the channel, change your life.'" We talked about why we are where we are now: it's because of what we've been listening to, what we've been reading—the sound that we're allowing to come into our mind and our heart. So, how do I get into this most intimate of services, a connection with a pure devotee, Śrīla Prabhupāda, under whom I've taken shelter in this Krishna Consciousness Movement? How do I do it? How? It sounds okay—maybe it's for others, maybe not me. Page by page, reading Śrīla Prabhupāda's books every day is a prerequisite for knowing him and for advancing in spiritual life. So, we actually have to make voluntary life changes. We call this the VLCs. You are human, you can decide; you make the voluntary life change because you're the agent of your own improvement. Here are the two elements that are necessary: knowledge and practice, that will move you to your destination.

Remember that nobody—there's no soul that's permanently unqualified. Everyone can rise in due course of time. And remember, even if you're inept, even if you're not very good at it, at least show up, because there's magic in just being there for the reading. So here's one of the obstacles. After we've surveyed many devotees around the world and asked them, "What's the main obstacle?" The answer is, "I don't have time."

Here's breaking news for those of you who may be missing it: it's not time we lack, it's taste, and we only get a taste by taking time. This unlocks and disposes off this particular obstacle that "I don't have time." We already found out we all have 24 hours, at least the ones we interviewed. It may be different in Iceland or something, but we all get the same amount of time. So, it's not time; it's taste. Why do some people read more than others? Because they have a taste for it. How do you get a taste? You have to take the time. So you have to budget some time to start.

Another common thought is, "I can't understand Śrīla Prabhupāda's books." Śrīla Prabhupāda said he couldn't understand his guru when he first heard him, but he stayed. That's the reason Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta noticed him at his initiation. Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta said, "I marked him. He likes to hear. He does not go away." So if you want to be recognized, you could stay there and listen.

There was a brāhmaṇa in South India that Caitanya Mahāprabhu met, who was every day reading the Bhagavad-gītā, but he couldn't read. He just did the best he could; he hacked away at it, and everyone was laughing at him. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu saw that this brāhmaṇa was crying when he was reading, and He asked him, "Why are you crying?" And he said, "My guru told me to read this every day, but I can't read." He said, "Then, why are you crying?" He said, "Because I think of Krishna when I'm doing this, that He drove the chariot for Arjuna, and He's so kind to His devotee, so I can't help but cry when I think of Krishna and holding this Gītā and trying to read it. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took that brāhmaṇa with Him. He said, "You've actually understood the Bhagavad-gītā." You don't have to be a great scholar or a Sanskritist. You just have to have a little sincerity and try to read Prabhupāda's books.

Everybody, keep going and remember, Vṛṣākapi—it's a name of Kṛṣṇa. It means when the devotees choose to think of Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa becomes inclined towards such a devotee. He showers his benedictions, satisfies his or her desires, and removes all miseries. If the atheistic mind tells you there's somewhere better to be, or "this is boring," don't believe him. Just believe the śāstra that everything comes from our relationship with Kṛṣṇa. We're part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa. And just take full shelter of the Mahāmantra and keep going.Pay close attention to the syllables and be aware if you're chanting or not. If you're not aware that you're chanting, your mind's not on the mantra. So be aware that you're chanting and listen to the syllables. Kṛṣṇa is all good. His name's perfect. He's non-different from His name. Just stay focused.

Here's another mantra: "Scrolling makes you dumb, and reading a chapter of Bhagavad-gītā makes you smart!" Because the Bhagavad-gītā is, as Prabhupāda describes, The Vedic intelligence. It's all there in one place, and Kṛṣṇa is speaking Himself. So, you get to hear directly from Kṛṣṇa, and you have your intelligence fortified by the Vedic intelligence. So, which would you rather have: the intelligence of the combined forces of everyone who posts on the internet and consumed in 10-second bytes at a rate of about 50 per 30 seconds, or would you rather have the infusion of Kṛṣṇa's words and His intelligence?

So, wherever you go wearing neck beads, you're sure to find someone in a remote area who unexpectedly says, 'Haribol!' And that's a good thing, because it will remind you that, 'Yes, I'm on a mission here, and I'm representing the Śrī Guru Parmparā. It's a point of high distinction, although we take it very humbly that we're able to display ourselves as Vaiṣṇavas, as the first stage of initiation. It's a process, not an event.' That's tapa, which means you turn away from the material world, realizing that this is not the purpose of my life—to try to settle here or to enjoy—but to serve.

Everything that we do, especially as humans, has consequences. There's a sequence that takes place when we enact anything—say any word, think any thought, perform any action, or do any work. There's a consequence; there's a sequence that unfolds. The most important of all consequences come from the chanting of The Holy Name.Another point is that if we don't do anything else right in our life, if we don't do it perfectly, if we concentrate all our disciplined energy in chanting good rounds, then everything else will go right. This is because, by chanting good rounds, everything else self-aligns. As Prabhupāda writes in one of his purports, by chanting the mantra, all energies are synchronized in one place.

Finally, it feels so good to chant because, first of all, it's perfect alignment. In other words, in the vernacular, we're doing the right thing. It's also Ācāryopāsanā because, as we heard, the great sages, the great devotees, they chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Not only that, we got instructions directly from Lord Caitanya and then, through this succession, under whom, Śrīla Prabhupāda, we've taken shelter to chant in a particular way and to finish a particular number. This is numerical strength, and by doing it regularly, we get this ācāryaopāsanā, worship of the Ācārya. And so, everything good comes from chanting The Holy Name.

We have to tolerate the extremes in the world, and toleration is one of the ways that Krishna recommends throughout the Bhagavad Gītā to be steady in spiritual consciousness. Don't give in to the extremes and the changes of the external world. Also, notice that if you pursue the pleasure of the senses in this world, then the result of it will be—although it may feel like pleasure in the beginning—there'll be misery at the end, because you'll have to contend with the reaction to it. So, we remain neutral while we're in the body, and we go on with our spiritual duty. And as one does that, there's a sense of satisfaction, which is invaluable in this world, because nobody has it. It's very rare because you can only get it from the spiritual platform. You can't get it from having money. You can't get it from having a beautiful property somewhere. You can't get it from having freedom to fly all over the world. Any of these things don't bring lasting happiness; only if one has developed Krishna consciousness can one become happy, and it doesn't matter what the situation is externally. So, although this seems to be a very simple principle in a simple verse, it's one of the essential aspects of practicing spiritual life: learning how to tolerate the dualities and to go on with one's practice in spiritual life.

And the final point I'll make is that consistency is king in spiritual practice. If you're able to be consistent, even if you start with a minimal practice, but you keep it up every day and do your quota that you've decided to do, then it will have its effect. And there's an example that someone once gave about how, when you make yogurt, does anybody here know how to make yogurt? You take a big pot of milk—let's just say it is a big pot, and call your life a big pot of milk. If you take a little yogurt that's already there and you put it in the milk, even if it's a little bit, you put it into the big pot of milk, and then you set the pot in a place with an even temperature, not too cold, not too hot, and you leave it overnight, a miracle happens. You come back and the whole pot turns to yogurt. So we have a lot of things going on in our lives, but if you can add that spiritual practice to the big pot of your life, then eventually the whole pot transforms, and everything about your life gets connected to Krishna consciousness. It doesn't mean you have to give up what you're doing.

As an example here is Arjuna. He's a warrior, and therefore he has to fight. It's his duty. If you call somebody when you're getting attacked, who's supposed to be a police officer, and say, "Please help me," and they say, "Oh, no, sorry, I'm non-violent, I can't help you," a non-violent policeman or a violent priest are not wanted. Everyone has their duty to do; they have to do it. So we go on with whatever our duties are in life, but if we add this spiritual practice and do it consistently, then gradually, everything transforms.

If you just look around, and you're not looking around with an eye to do some service, or you don't have a mission when you're looking at anything, you're scrolling. We're scrolling all the time. Kṛṣṇa consciousness means to be conscious of what you're looking at and why you're doing it.

And then, of course, there's what's called atyāhāra. 'Ati' means extreme, and 'āhāra' means eating—extreme eating. I'm not going to talk about eating, so don't worry. But that phrase is also extrapolated upon by our great ācāryas to mean, 'Don't collect unnecessarily. Don't collect too much.' And it means collecting too much information also.You don't have to have so much information you can't even process it.

And scrolling isn't even really processing information. It's barely touching each subject for just a few seconds and then moving on to something else, with a sense that there might be something better in the next thing. Frankly, those who set up a platform like that are trying to get you to scroll, and they don't care if you stay on one subject or another. Well, they do, because they register that and then put more of it out. But as long as you stay on their platform, that's okay.

So, one thing to leave behind that can have an instant, positive effect is to leave behind scrolling. Don't scroll on your phone. Don't scroll indiscriminately, looking at anything randomly. Look at it purposefully, which means...

This is a very exciting time. Find a service to assist in expanding it around the Bay Area and make history. Now is a good time. And yes, of course, everyone has some anxiety. You can count on that. There's going to be problems you have to worry about when you wake up at one o'clock in the morning and you think, "Why did that guy say that to me? Why aren't they paying me enough? Why are they laying people off? Who are these people anyway?" That's just the side-guy stuff, the material world, especially in Kali Yuga. And if you know that that's coming, and then you bypass it, you do the best you can to do what you can within it. But you bypass it by taking full advantage of the opportunity to spread the Krishna consciousness movement. You won't be touched by it. You'll remain transcendental.

Thank you for listening so attentively. And so, thank you and congratulations to everyone here for all that you're doing, for representing the Krishna Consciousness Movement, representing Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. And experiment with expanding your service by offering, wherever you live, your homestead as a place where people can come learn Krishna consciousness. Every house can be a temple. You can also expand through social media. You can also expand by going out and meeting people door-to-door. You do that; I've seen you.

So, with that comes great joy. The members of Lord Caitanya's personal party were quite enthusiastic about it. In fact, the way it's described in Caitanya-caritāmṛta, metaphorically, is they broke open the storehouse. Did you ever break into anything when you were a kid? Alright, I won't ask you. It's kind of fun anyway, nothing too criminal, (couple snow cones). Breaking and entering, smashing open a lock, and then taking the contents out and then giving it away as a kind of Robin Hood-type thing, you know, take it and give it to the masses of people who need it.

And this is a mood that is uplifting. It's not boring. The idea of making a faster chip, although it's hard work, it's not that exciting because it hasn't made a difference in the quality of our life or the feeling of satisfaction in our hearts. The fact that, compared to not having a cell phone to now having a cell phone, it hasn't increased the sense of satisfaction in my heart. That's over a span of whatever they came out, 30 - 40 years ago, and I remember somebody saying, "Are you sure you want to carry one of those things around with you?" But it does make a difference when people come in contact with the spiritual sound vibration. So we can emulate Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's associates by this enthusiastic distribution of Krishna consciousness. And it mentions also that not only to distribute it, but they tasted its contents. So, maybe with one hand you distribute, the other one you can be tasting it. And that's the mood of the Krishna Consciousness Movement.
