To understand Kṛṣṇa is not easy job, easy job. So one who has understood, "Here is Kṛṣṇa with Rādhārāṇī; let me serve," that position is very exalted position. That is not ordinary position. But one who is unfortunate not to come to that position to understand Kṛṣṇa, for them Kṛṣṇa is giving the prescription you see here.

Every one of us as good as sannyāsī, because we have sacrificed everything for Kṛṣṇa. Sannyāsī does not mean simply having no wife and children, he's a sannyāsī. No. Nothing to possess except Kṛṣṇa. That is sannyāsī. One should know that "I will have simply Kṛṣṇa, nothing more." Then he is sannyāsī. This mentality, that "I have nothing to serve; I have nobody to serve except Kṛṣṇa." But if you serve Kṛṣṇa, you will serve everyone.

Just like I was teaching this Indian gentleman. The same process: If you pour water on the root of the tree, automatically the branches, the leaves and the flowers are all served. If you put the foodstuff here, not here, not here, then automatically this is served. Although the foodstuff is here, automatically this is served, this is served, this is served, this is . . . everybody served. This is practical. If you serve Kṛṣṇa, then all service will be included. They are serving humanitarian and so on.

Suppose I, I am Indian, I came to your country. Why I came to your country in this old age? That is service. To give Kṛṣṇa conscious, that's the best service. Without any distinction of caste, creed, country, color. No. Everyone should have Kṛṣṇa. This is the best service. Go everywhere, every part of the world, and give Kṛṣṇa. That is the best service you can do.

And actually, they are now feeling, because they are Indians. Even in India, where there are so many devotees of Kṛṣṇa, but when they saw "These American devotees are so nice," thirty thousand people were coming daily. And what was our magic? This man was asking me, "Swāmījī, what magic you have got?" And "I have got this magic: that I don't tell lie. I don't make 'This rascal is God.' God is Kṛṣṇa. That is my magic. I don't bluff people. Here is God. See God, be with God, serve God. That's my business."

Why God should be unseen? You see Kṛṣṇa. If Kṛṣṇa says . . . Kṛṣṇa says that, "I am taste of the water," while you are drinking water, tasting, "Oh, here is Kṛṣṇa." As soon as you see sunshine, moonshine, "Oh, here is Kṛṣṇa." As soon as there is a nice flavor, "Oh, here is Kṛṣṇa." Puṇyo gandhaḥ pṛthivyāṁ ca tejaś cāsmi vibhāvasau ([[Vanisource:BG 7.9 (1972)|BG 7.9]]). These are all described in the Bhagavad-gītā, Seventh Chapter. Where is Bhagavad-gītā? Just turn to Seventh Chapter. Somebody come up to this.

So it is very important movement. You take it very seriously and spread it. Seventh Chapter. Read it.

Viṣṇujana: "O son of Kuntī (Arjuna), I am the taste of water, the light of the sun and the moon, the syllable oṁ in the Vedic mantras. I am the sound in ether."

Prabhupāda: Now, who is not drinking water? The taste of water is Kṛṣṇa, so who has not seen Kṛṣṇa? They say: "Can you show me God?" If you don't see God, then who will show you? Here is God, you are drinking water. Here is God, sunshine. Those who cannot see Kṛṣṇa is God . . . because to see Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality God, it requires many, many thousands of years' tapasya to understand Kṛṣṇa.

Bahūnāṁ janmanām ante ([[Vanisource:BG 7.19 (1972)|BG 7.19]]). After many, many births, one can understand Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is not so easy. Manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu kaścid yatati siddhaye ([[Vanisource:BG 7.3 (1972)|BG 7.3]]). Out of many thousands of men, one may be interested how to make this life perfect. And those who actually attain perfection, out of many thousands of them, one can understand Kṛṣṇa.

So to understand Kṛṣṇa is not easy job, easy job. So one who has understood, "Here is Kṛṣṇa with Rādhārāṇī; let me serve," that position is very exalted position. That is not ordinary position. But one who is unfortunate not to come to that position to understand Kṛṣṇa, for them Kṛṣṇa is giving the prescription you see here. You drink water, the taste, now just think, "Here is Kṛṣṇa." In this way, if you think of Kṛṣṇa in your daily activities, then one day you will be able to understand what is Kṛṣṇa.

Actually, Kṛṣṇa is everything, because whatever . . . this table is also Kṛṣṇa, because it is a manifestation of Kṛṣṇa's energy. Bhūmir āpo 'nalo vāyuḥ khaṁ buddhir mano eva ca ([[Vanisource:BG 7.4 (1972)|BG 7.4]]). What is the ingredient of this table? Earth, water, air, fire. Kṛṣṇa says, "That is My manifestation of My energy." Just like if the sun god says, "I am everything of this matter," it is a fact, because through the sunshine everything is coming out.

As soon as there is no sunshine, no more trees, no more foliage. Why? It is due to sunshine all these trees are existing. So if I say everything is sunshine, what is the wrong there? Because it is the sun's energy which is maintaining this material world. Similarly, it is Kṛṣṇa's energy that is manifesting everything. So if I say: "This is Kṛṣṇa," this is a fact.
