It is very difficult to forget Krishna, once having heard of Him

[Guest guest]

The sun is so bright that even if you look away from its glaring effulgence,

you will still see it. In the same way, it is very difficult to forget Krishna,

once having heard of Him.

 

nehabhikrama-naso 'sti

pratyavayo na vidyate

sv-alpam apy asya dharmasya

trayate mahato bhayat (Bg 2.40)

 

In this endeavor there is no loss or diminution, and a little advancement on

this path can protect one from the most dangerous type of fear.

 

PURPORT

Activity in Krsna consciousness, or acting for the benefit of Krsna without

expectation of sense gratification, is the highest transcendental quality of

work. Even a small beginning of such activity finds no impediment, nor can that

small beginning be lost at any stage. Any work begun on the material plane has

to be completed, otherwise the whole attempt becomes a failure. But any work

begun in Krsna consciousness has a permanent effect, even though not finished.

The performer of such work is therefore not at a loss even if his work in Krsna

consciousness is incomplete. One percent done in Krsna consciousness bears

permanent results, so that the next beginning is from the point of two percent,

whereas in material activity without a hundred percent success there is no

profit.{...}
