Regarding going together with Hansadutta on Samkirtan Party, no, there is no need of specifically helping Hansadutta because you are now engaged in direct service to the Lord, and it must be understood that this service is your specific duty. I do not think you require a child for the purpose of example. You had one child, and by the desire of Krsna the child did not stay. Now you can forget of any child. Just do the present service with great care and affection, that will be your best service to Krsna. Better to accept Krsna as your child, and He will never leave you like material child. He will stay with you forever.For raising children in Krsna Consciousness, you will get many opportunities to do so. When I was householder, I was just taking care of one or two children, but after retiring from my household life Krsna has given me chance to raise so many nice children for raising them to Krsna Consciousness. So instead of desiring to raise a bodily child to Krsna Consciousness, if you stick to this service, Krsna will give you many children for that purpose.I am so glad to hear of Hansadutta's determination to become Krsna Conscious. The determination is difficult, Krsna Consciousness is not difficult--Krsna Consciousness is natural. One knows how to love another, so instead of loving so many others, one can very easily take to the business of loving Krsna--this is determination. That much is required, otherwise Krsna Consciousness is not difficult.
