Today is a reminder that there's a point in time—and we should take it seriously—that if we put ourselves on the line for Lord Caitanya, then He'll remember us quite favorably. One of my godbrothers, in the early days, went to join Śrīla Prabhupāda in India because Prabhupāda had asked some Americans to come to India and help out because he had gone back there to start the movement, and he had been there for several months. He had a few little services, and he'd go to Prabhupāda's darśanas and classes, but Prabhupāda never recognized him.

Untill he went out on a traveling Saṅkīrtana party, and there were some things in the newspaper that were favorable because of the efforts he took along with a few others on travelling sankirtan. As soon as he got back, Prabhupāda started talking to him regularly and consulting with him about how to expand what he was doing. That's the way to advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and it's also the way to advance the Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Movement: is to take risks.
