Nārada says further,&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:tatrānvahaṁ kṛṣṇa-kathāḥ pragāyatām&lt;br /&gt;
:anugraheṇāśṛṇavaṁ manoharāḥ&lt;br /&gt;
:tāḥ śraddhayā me &amp;#039;nupadaṁ viśṛṇvataḥ&lt;br /&gt;
:priyaśravasy aṅga mamābhavad ruciḥ&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;By associating with the sages, Nārada got the taste for hearing and chanting the glories of the Lord, and he developed a great desire for devotional service. Therefore, as described in the Vedānta-sūtra, prakāśaś ca karmaṇy abhyāsāt: if one is engaged simply in the acts of devotional service, everything is revealed to him automatically, and he can understand. This is called pratyakṣa, directly perceived.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Both in the material world and in the spiritual world His energies are distributed in every variety of manifestation. Now Kṛṣṇa is describing what can be directly perceived by the common man; thus part of His variegated energy is described in this way.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

And yet by His causeless mercy one can have suitable senses to hear Him or to speak to Him. This is the Lord&amp;#039;s inconceivable energy. One upon whom His mercy is bestowed can hear Him. The Lord was much pleased with Nārada Muni, and therefore the necessary strength was invested in him so that he could hear the Lord. It is not, however, possible for others to perceive directly the touch of the Lord during the probationary stage of regulative devotional service. It was a special gift for Nārada.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

But in the case of Vedic truths, they have been taught not to believe. Even if they accept them they give a different interpretation. Each and every man wants a direct perception of Vedic knowledge, but foolishly they deny it. This means that the misguided man can believe one authority, the scientist, but will reject the authority of the Vedas. The result is that people have degenerated.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
