Krsna says
naham tisthami vaikunthe
yoginam va hrdaye ca
yatra gayanti mad-bhakta
tatra tisthami narada
“I am not actually in My abode, Krsnaloka; neither I am in the heart of the yogis who are meditating. But I am present in there where My pure devotees are singing, singing.” Yes, Krsna says that.
So you can feel the presence of Krsna as we make progress in this line.
