Then that devotee who is serious about getting love of God and who knows he must go through Caitanya Mahaprabhu, he simply focuses his life, his mind, his whole heart on this inner desire, this anxiousness of the Lord, the mission of the Lord to get people all over the world to hear about Krishna, to hear Krishna’s message and to chant Krishna’s names and his whole life becomes simply dedicated to this .
