PURPORT

One who is unable to live for a moment without Kåñëa consciousness cannot but

think of Kåñëa twenty-four hours a day, being engaged in devotional service

by hearing, chanting, remembering, offering prayers, worshiping, serving the

lotus feet of the Lord, rendering other services, cultivating friendship and

surrendering fully to the Lord. Such activities are all auspicious and full of

spiritual potencies, which make the devotee perfect in self-realization, so

that

his only desire is to achieve the association of the Supreme Personality of

Godhead. Such a devotee undoubtedly approaches the Lord without difficulty.

This is called yoga. By the mercy of the Lord, such a devotee never comes back

to

this material condition of life. Kñema refers to the merciful protection of

the Lord. The Lord helps the devotee to achieve Kåñëa consciousness by yoga,

and when he becomes fully Kåñëa conscious the Lord protects him from falling

down to a miserable conditioned life.
