This practice, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, means to practice this, how to fix up the mind always at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa also advised the same thing: man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru (BG 18.65). Mayy āsakta-manaḥ pārtha yogaṁ yuñjan mad-āśrayaḥ (BG 7.1). This is yoga, meditation.

So even though you think that Kṛṣṇa is not present, but He is present by His words, Bhagavad-gītā. He is absolute. Kṛṣṇa the person, and Kṛṣṇa's words, Bhagavad-gītā, there is no difference. Advaya-jñāna, no duality. Everything is one, absolute. Kṛṣṇa is absolute, Kṛṣṇa's instruction is also absolute, Kṛṣṇa's pastimes absolute. Everything. That is Absolute Truth. There is no difference. In the material world the name and the thing is different. Suppose here is mango, so mango is the thing and mango is the name. So if I simply say "Mango, mango, mango," there is no mango. (laughter) There must be the thing, mango. That is duality. This is the world of duality. But "Absolute" means the name mango and the mango thing is the same. Otherwise what is the . . . if they're different, then what is the use of chanting "Kṛṣṇa"? Kṛṣṇa chanting means Kṛṣṇa this word, and Kṛṣṇa the person, the same. Therefore by constant chanting means constantly associating with Kṛṣṇa. Then we are becoming purified. Purified. There is no difference.

So we have to understand this philosophy. Everything is there in the book. So we have to read it carefully, understand it through the teacher's, or guru's, instruction. So in this way, if our mind becomes fixed up in Kṛṣṇa the person or the Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa word, sakṛt, once only . . . sakṛt means once only, yes. Kṛṣṇa padāravindayoḥ, pandāyo, niveśitam, fully absorbed. This practice, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, means to practice this, how to fix up the mind always at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa also advised the same thing: man-manā bhava mad-bhakto mad-yājī māṁ namaskuru ([[Vanisource:BG 18.65 (1972)|BG 18.65]]). Mayy āsakta-manaḥ pārtha yogaṁ yuñjan mad-āśrayaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 7.1 (1972)|BG 7.1]]). This is yoga, meditation.
