1974 Conversations and Morning Walks

He is being served by many thousands of goddess of fortune. Lakṣmī-sahasra-śata-sambrahma-sevyamānam. Then what is this value of this leaf and flower and fruit? But still, He says, tad aham aśnāmi, "Yes, I eat them." And once God eats from your hand, then your life is successful.

Little service to God is taken as great service. Kṛṣṇa is so kind. So we should try always to give the best service, best energy, and you become liberated. Actually we cannot give any service to Kṛṣṇa. He is unlimited. What is the value of our service? But He takes it seriously, "Oh, he is trying to give Me some service." Otherwise what service He needs from us? Suppose He has created this big universe. What service we can give? By His will, He can create millions of universes. What service we can give Him? No. These are the chances of service, this Ratha-yātrā. God is so great, so big, how we can pack up in the ratha? But this is a chance, that you get Him sit on the ratha and prepare it, manufacture it. Because your energy is engaged for His service, that is accepted.

So this example . . . just like a small child eating lozenges, and out of that, if he offers father, "Father, take it," and father takes it very serious . . . "Ah, very nice." And what is that lozenges to the father? It is nothing. But because the child offers to the father in love, father takes it very seriously, "Oh, you are so nice. Yes, yes. Give me." That is stated in Bhagavad-gītā. Patraṁ puṣpaṁ phalaṁ toyaṁ yo me bhaktyā prayacchati (BG 9.26): "A leaf, a fruit, a little water." What is the value of these? But yo me bhaktyā prayacchati, "Because he is giving Me in faith and devotion, I accept it." And what is this one piece of leaf and a fruit for God? It is nothing. He is being served by many thousands of goddess of fortune. Lakṣmī-sahasra-śata-sambrahma-sevyamānam. Then what is this value of this leaf and flower and fruit? But still, He says, tad aham aśnāmi, "Yes, I eat them." And once God eats from your hand, then your life is successful.
