Guest (2): What am I giving to God?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Guest (2): Well, I want to give everything . . .
Prabhupāda: No, no. You want to, but practically what you are giving?
Guest (2): What am I giving now?
Prabhupāda: Yes. I mean to say, anyone. Here . . . here is a process. Just like in our temple they have dedicated everything to God, the life.
Guest (2): Well, we likewise went through a temple, a sacred place, and in there we have made covenants to give everything.
Prabhupāda: So love of God means six things. This is the difference between other literature and Vedic literature. Here it is said: "love of God," but in the Vedic literature you will find the process of love:
- śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ
- smaraṇaṁ pāda-sevanam
- arcanaṁ vandanaṁ dāsyaṁ
- sakhyam ātma-nivedanam
- (SB 7.5.23)
Nine different processes. First of all you should hear about the glories of God, śravaṇam. Then you should preach the glories of God. Śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ. You should always remember God, smaraṇam. Pāda-sevanam: you should worship the Lord by worshiping, giving service to His lotus feet. But if God is imperson, where is feet? And if God is no form, then how you can remember Him?
