Just like if you want to talk with some big man, then you must have qualification. Is it possible that if you want to talk with the big man here, immediately you like? No. You cannot talk. You must be fit to talk with him. Similarly, Kṛṣṇa is ready to talk with you.He has come. He has descended in arcā-mūrti (Deity form) to talk with you, to be visible by you. Now you make yourself ready and fit to talk with Kṛṣṇa. Then He will exchange conversation. Santaḥ sadaiva hṛdayeṣu vilokayanti. This is possible…… Bombay Dec 4 1974
When we simply remember to accept the control of Krishna and not to act independently then all fortune is automatically present. letter Brahmananda Dec 11 1968
Therefore my Guru Mahārāja introduced… You have seen the, what is called? That signia? One side, pañcarātriki-vidhi, one sidebhāgavata-viddhi. That is… I have seen that Gauḍīya Math emblem. Yes. And, so actually, Bhāgavata-mārga is very strong. That is sufficient. But without pañcarātrika-vidhi this polluted body, polluted mind of the devotee, cannot be purified. Therefore both the process
(hearing,chanting & deity worship) should be adopted in preaching Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.
