Well one is to express gratitude. One of my godbrothers told me, while we were traveling, and this is an example of getting something valuable from association. He said, every morning when he wakes up, as soon as he swings out of bed and puts his feet on the floor (of course, if you're a brahmacārī—I don't know how you're going to do that), but before he stands up, he says, 'Thank you, Śrīla Prabhupāda.'" And I said, "I'm going to start doing that too." So I started doing that upon getting up. And then I started saying, "Thank you, Kṛṣṇa." I'd say it a few times until I was chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. I'd say, "Thank you, Kṛṣṇa. Thank you, Kṛṣṇa. Thank you, Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare, Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma." And then when I'm chanting my japa, I'm thinking, "Thank you, Kṛṣṇa.
