Krsna consciousness can spread worldwide in 5 days; if....

[Guest guest]

The Krsna consciousness movement has spread all over the world within a very

short time (within five years), and mundane people are very much astonished

at this. However, by the grace of Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, we

understand that everything is possible by the grace of Krsna. Why does Krsna

have to take five years? In five days He can spread His name and fame all

over the world like wildfire. Those who have faith in and devotion to Krsna

can understand that these things happen so wonderfully by the grace of Sri

Caitanya Mahaprabhu. We are simply the instruments. In the fierce Battle of

Kuruksetra, Arjuna was victorious within eighteen days simply because

Krsna's grace was on his side.

"Wherever there is Krsna, the master of all mystics, and wherever there is

Arjuna, the supreme archer, there will also certainly be opulence, victory,

extraordinary power and morality. That is my opinion." (Bg. 18.78)

 

If the preachers in our Krsna consciousness movement are sincere devotees of

Krsna, Krsna will always be with them because He is very kind and favorable

to all His devotees. Just as Arjuna and Krsna were victorious in the Battle

of Kuruksetra, this Krsna consciousness movement will surely emerge

victorious if we but remain sincere devotees of the Lord and serve the Lord

according to the advice of the predecessors (the six Gosvamis and other

devotees of the Lord). As Narottama dasa Thakura has stated: tandera carana

sevi bhakta-sane vasa, janame janame haya ei abhilasa. The Krsna

consciousness devotees must always desire to remain in the society of

devotees. Bhakta-sane vasa: they cannot go outside the Krsna consciousness

society or movement. Within the society we must try to serve the

predecessors by preaching Caitanya Mahaprabhu's cult and spreading His name

and fame all over the world. If we attempt this seriously within the

society, it will be successfully done. There is no question of estimating

how this will happen in the mundane sense. But without a doubt, it happens

by the grace of Krsna.
