| | So our point is that as this hankering after sex, or the opposite sex, is natural—it doesn't require to be educated—similarly, ''kṛṣṇa-bhakti'' is also natural. It is not that because we have established this temple and people are here . . . of course, there is practice, but that practice is also very simple. Simply you have to hear. That's all. It doesn't require any gymnastic. Just like in other yogic process, ''haṭha-yoga'', you have to learn so many things: ''yama'', ''niyama'', ''dhyāna'', ''dhāraṇā'', ''āsana'', ''prāṇāyāma'', so many things. But here there is no need. Simply sit down and hear about Kṛṣṇa. That's all. |

| | But that hearing must be from a person who is realized. Then it will act. ''Kṛṣṇa-bhakti nitya-siddha sādhya kabhu naya'', ''śravaṇādi-śuddha-citte'' (''Hari-bhakti-vilāsa''). By hearing, the more your heart will be cleansed of all material infection you will understand what is Kṛṣṇa. |
