We're really in a pickle here, and there's a way in which Kṛṣṇa absolves us of all that, if we just come back to our happy life, happy Life means, "Kṛṣṇa, I'm Yours. I'm Your servant." So the meaning of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa is very profound. It means that you've come to the pinnacle of understanding that my life is meant for Kṛṣṇa, and everything I do is to be used in His service, dedicated to Him. When you chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, you can take full shelter of Kṛṣṇa and just say, "Kṛṣṇa, I am a lost soul. I'm not liberated. I have nothing in this world. I'm the runt of the litter. I've been left behind, abandoned. I'm freezing by the roadside in the middle of nowhere, and have nobody else but You. Please, please engage me in Your service." And Kṛṣṇa is so kind that in our forlorn, lost situation, He'll be there. In fact, He's always been there for us, and there's a recognition that He's there for us. When we call out to Him, then immediately we'll feel satisfaction in our heart. All the disappointments we've had in this world, all the tenuous situations, trying to hold on to things that we know we can't hold on to, will be assuaged from our fears, from our false hopes that are nagging at us, giving us a sense of cognitive dissonance at every moment of our lives, even when we're dreaming—it will be dried up.Our tears will dry up.
