"Unlimited. Everything is unlimited. Kṛṣṇa's creation . . . we are very much concerned with one planet, this, but Kṛṣṇa's creation is unlimited number of planets. As you see unlimited number of hairs on your head, you cannot count. Can you count how many hairs are there?
This is Kṛṣṇa's creation. You cannot count. So what to speak of this hair—anything you take. You take one tree: unlimited number of foliages. You cannot count. Similarly, unlimited number of planets, unlimited number of universes—everything unlimited. Therefore He is unlimited."

(Spiritual energy is prominent everywhere, in this material world and the spiritual world) 

Therefore here in this material world there are two energies working. In the spiritual world there is only spiritual energy working. But in the material world, two energies are working: material and spiritual. Material energy is dependent
on spiritual energy.Spiritual energy is prominent everywhere, in this material world and the spiritual world. Here also, the matter is developing upon spirit, not that spirit is manifesting under certain conditional stage of matter."

(So Kṛṣṇa likes paṅkaja very much, lotus flower. So if we see lotus flower, we can remember . . . immediately remember Kṛṣṇa) 

So if we see lotus flower, we can remember . . . immediately remember Kṛṣṇa. If . . . just like if you love your child, if you see any garment, a small ship . . . shoes or any play things, immediately you remember your child: "Oh, this is my child's shoes.
This is my child's playing things. This is my garment." So it is the question of love. If you actually love God, Kṛṣṇa, then you can remember Him at any time, always, always. There is no difficulty."

(so one has to take bath in the ocean of this transcendental sound, then he is bona fide spiritual master) 

so one has to take bath in the ocean of this transcendental sound, then he is bona fide spiritual master. Śābde pare ca niṣṇātam. And what is the symptom? Everyone can say that, "I have taken full bath in this transcendental sound," but the symptom is there. What is that symptom?
Śābde pare ca niṣṇātaṁ brahmaṇy upaśamāśrayam: he has taken shelter of the Supreme Brahman, finishing all material activities. He has no more any material activities. He is simply after the Supreme Brahman, or Kṛṣṇa. This is the qualification."

(Kṛṣṇa is very much anxious to take you back home, back to Godhead. But we are stubborn. We do not wish. So He's always finding out the opportunity how you can be taken back home, back to Godhead) 

The father is more anxious to take the boy home. Similarly, Kṛṣṇa is the supreme father. All these living entities within this material world, they're exactly like the misled child of a big, rich man, loitering in the street. Therefore the greatest benefit to the human society is to give him Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Greatest . . . any kind of material profit will not satisfy the living entity."

(Because that is the price only to purchase Kṛṣṇa: to be mad after Him—"Where is Kṛṣṇa?") 

He rādhe vraja-devike ca lalite he nanda-sūno kutaḥ. "Where You are? Where You are?" Śrī-govardhana pādapa-tale kālindī-vane kutaḥ. "Are You under the valley of Govardhana Hill or on the bank of the Yamunā? Where You are?" Ghoṣantāv iti sarvato vraja-pure.
That was their Kṛṣṇa consciousness, simply wondering "Where is Kṛṣṇa? Where is Kṛṣṇa? Where is Kṛṣṇa?" Ghoṣantāv iti sarvato pure khedair mahā-vihvalau. Madlike, vihvalau. Vande rūpa-sanātanau raghu-yugau śrī-jīva-go . . . this is, this price wanted, then you can get Kṛṣṇa, you can understand Kṛṣṇa."

(One moon is complete to drive away the darkness of night. Not millions of stars required. What these millions of stars can do? One moon is sufficient. So our propaganda is to create one moon. You see? But fortunately, by Kṛṣṇa's grace, many moonlike boys and girls have come to me. You see? Many moons. (chuckles)) 

because if I can turn one soul to this Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he'll do tremendous work, because he'll be fire. You see? He can do tremendous work. Ekaś candras tamo hanti na ca taraḥ sahasrasaḥ (Cāṇakya Paṇḍita). One moon is complete to drive away the darkness of night.

And if you accept God as child, then you have to give everything. This is Gauḍīya-Vaiṣṇava conception. Yaśodāmāyi, she has accepted . . . she's is worshiping God as child, so that she is always engaged that Kṛṣṇa may not be in any inconvenience about His body, about His comfort.

(If you live in Kṛṣṇa, always loving . . . just like the gopīs. The gopīs, they learned how to love Kṛṣṇa. That's all) 

The gopīs, they learned how to love Kṛṣṇa. That's all. They never underwent any severe austerities like the great saintly persons going to Himalaya and pressing their nose and something. No, never did. Their only business was how to love Kṛṣṇa. Automatically.
Without any . . . of course, that stage is not easily obtained, but the śāstra says if you come to that stage, simply to love Kṛṣṇa, then you are on the highest platform of blissful life. Premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena santaḥ sadaiva hṛdayeṣu

(You are loving. You are mad after a appropriate lover who can love you also. But that you cannot find out within this material world. That you will find out when you love Kṛṣṇa." That is our Kṛṣṇa consciousness) 

ye yathā māṁ prapadyante
tāṁs tathaiva bhajāmy aham
(BG 4.11)
If you think of Kṛṣṇa twenty-four hours, Kṛṣṇa will think of you twenty-six hours. (laughter) Kṛṣṇa is so kind. If you do some service for Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa will reward you hundred times. But people, they do not want. They think, "What we shall benefit by serving Kṛṣṇa? Let us serve my dog." You see?
This is the misunderstanding. And our attempt is to awaken the dormant love of Kṛṣṇa. Everyone has got love—the stock of love is there—but it is being misused. They do not know where to place that love so that . . . because they do not know, therefore they are frustrated. Therefore t
(This is the sign of love—that a lover cannot live for a moment without being associated with the beloved. This is sign of love. So this love, it can be appreciated only between Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa or between the gopīs and Kṛṣṇa; not otherwise) 

"So you have no love for Kṛṣṇa. You are always crying for Kṛṣṇa, and still you say that you have no love for Kṛṣṇa?" "No, I am crying just to make a show. Actually I am not devotee of Kṛṣṇa." "Why?" That "Because if I could have been a devotee of Kṛṣṇa, how could I live without Him? I have not died, still. That means I have no love for Kṛṣṇa."
This is the sign of love—that a lover cannot live for a moment without being associated with the beloved.

(Kṛṣṇa advises, "Always think of Me." Where is the difficulty? We have to think of something. We cannot keep our mind vacant. That is not possible) 

Think of Kṛṣṇa, and if you chant, if you engage your tongue, "Hare Kṛṣṇa," and if you hear, then everything is compact in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So to achieve strength, Kṛṣṇa is prepared to help us in so many ways."

(Our this saṅkīrtana movement is so nice that simply by chanting, the vibration will create an auspicious atmosphere, varīyān eṣa te praśnaḥ (SB 2.1.1) 

just like we are chanting "Hare Kṛṣṇa." We may not understand what is meaning of Hare Kṛṣṇa, but still, because it is transcendental sound, it is auspicious. Wherever you chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, they may hear or they may not hear, it is auspicious for them. So we are sending our men for street saṅkīrtana.
It doesn't matter whether people are eager to hear it or not, but it is auspicious. It will create an atmosphere which is very, very congenial to the human society. That should be our principle

Then where is the difficulty? Inside, outside, always, books, knowledge—He is prepared. So where is the difficulty to make yourself perfect in Kṛṣṇa consciousness? There is no difficulty at all. Provided you are serious, you can become fully Kṛṣṇa conscious in this very life."
