1. Work hard for Krsna, Srila Prabhupada will be pleased

    You are working so hard not for your benefit, personal, and that is sannyasi. That is sannyasi. Anasritah karma-phalam karyam. “Oh it is my duty to serve Krsna.” And he is sannyasi. Anyone who has got this consciousness that “It is my duty to serve Krsna. I must serve Him with my life and soul and everything,” he’s a sannyasi. Not the dress. So you are doing that. Now fix up. Go on doing this. Life is successful. That’s all. Anasritah karma-phalam karyam karma karoti yah, sa sannyasi. It is so nice to work for Krsna without any personal profit. This is Vrndavana. The gopis, they sacrificed everything for Krsna, their position, their honor, their prestige. So do like that. I am very glad to see when you work so hard for Krsna. That gives me much pleasure.
