Conversations and Morning Walks

1968 Conversations and Morning Walks

"My dear Lord, I am now fully satisfied." That is the preaching we are making, that everyone is trying to love something: either personally his body, senses, or then expanded: wife, children—then family, community, society and country, humanity, extending. But there is no, I mean to say, satisfaction. Because the real lovable object is Kṛṣṇa. And when he goes to Kṛṣṇa, then, oh, svamin krtartho 'smi. The same example: just like you are feeling hunger. Now, somebody told you, "Give food." So you are trying to put food in the nose, in the ear, in the mouth, in the anus, in this and that. No satisfaction. You give it here, oh, fully satisfied. We do not know where to put our love. That we are teaching, yes spot. Most valuable conclusion.

Prabhupāda: If some girl want to go, then she may marry somebody. That will be nice. Of course, in your country there is no such restriction if unmarried girls go with you. But if she is married, that is better. So you make your choice in that way. So she is going, this girl?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Śrīmatī?

Prabhupāda: Śrīmatī?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. She wishes to go. I asked her, I told her, "So you have to get married." And she just said: "Oh, I have been married. I just want to marry Kṛṣṇa now."

Prabhupāda: (laughs) That's nice. That is very nice. Yes. If one gets Kṛṣṇa actually, he or she forgets everything. That is sure. Yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ nādhikaṁ manyate tataḥ (BG 6.22).

After getting Kṛṣṇa, nobody wants to get anything more. He is full. Svamin krtartho 'smi (CC Madhya 22.42):
