Who can think of Kṛṣṇa always? Not always even, think of Kṛṣṇa, unless one is devotee? And to think of Kṛṣṇa, what is the difficulty? Huh? Is there any difficulty to think of Kṛṣṇa? Thinking power we have got. We think so many . . . Our mind is never vacant; always think something. We think of something always, twenty-four hours. That is mind's nature. So if you simply think of Kṛṣṇa, then your life becomes successful. Where is the difficulty?.

Translation: (02:15) "Engage your mind always in thinking of Me, offer obeisances and worship Me. Being completely absorbed in Me, surely you will come to Me."

Prabhupāda: So what is the difficulty? Kṛṣṇa is recommending these four things: man-manā bhava, "always think of Me." You, man-manā bhava mad-bhaktaḥ: "You become My devotee." Unless you become devotee, you cannot think of Kṛṣṇa. That is automatic. If you think of Kṛṣṇa always, that means you are devotee. Otherwise, why a person wastes his time thinking of Kṛṣṇa? He can think of business. He can think of so many other things. Only the devotee can think of Kṛṣṇa. So if you think of Kṛṣṇa, then automatically you become devotee. Is there any objection?

Bhagavān: No.

Prabhupāda: Who can think of Kṛṣṇa always? Not always even, think of Kṛṣṇa, unless one is devotee? And to think of Kṛṣṇa, what is the difficulty? Huh? Is there any difficulty to think of Kṛṣṇa? Thinking power we have got. We think so many . . . Our mind is never vacant; always think something. We think of something always, twenty-four hours. That is mind's nature.

So if you simply think of Kṛṣṇa, then your life becomes successful. Where is the difficulty? Hmm? And the result is mām evaiṣyasi: by following these principles or thinking of Kṛṣṇa, which means to become a devotee . . . Man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī ([[Vanisource:BG 18.65 (1972)|BG 18.65]]). Anyone who is devotee, naturally he'll worship Kṛṣṇa. The temple is there. We worship. Then? Man-manā bhava, mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru. And worshiping Kṛṣṇa means, if you cannot do anything, you simply go and offer your obeisances, that's all. It is open to everyone. There is no restriction that such and such men can come and offer obeisances. No. Anyone. Māṁ hi pārtha vyapāśritya ye 'pi syuḥ pāpa-yonayaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 9.32 (1972)|BG 9.32]]). Even born in low-grade family, it doesn't matter. So where is the difficulty? That we want to discuss. To become Kṛṣṇa conscious, is there any difficulty for any person, anywhere, any part of the world? Let us discuss this point. Huh? (aside:) You sit down properly. I say you, yes.

So, discuss this point. What is the difficulty? Why people are not Kṛṣṇa conscious? But the process is very simple. Man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī ([[Vanisource:BG 18.65 (1972)|BG 18.65]]).
