Wholehearted Remembrance Leads to Kṛṣṇa

“Because your minds are totally absorbed in Me and free from all other engagement, you remember Me always, and so you will very soon have Me again in your presence.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.47.36, translation

What the purport teaches

  • Kṛṣṇa describes the gopīs’ minds as totally absorbed in Him.
  • Free from all other engagement, they remember Him always. Their remembrance is wholehearted and constant.
  • Kṛṣṇa assures them that they will very soon have Him again in their presence.

Try this today

Put distractions aside for two minutes today and devote that time entirely to remembering Kṛṣṇa.

Ask yourself

What competing concern could you put aside briefly to give Kṛṣṇa your full attention?

Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.

From Canto 10, chapter 14 onward, the translation and purports were completed by Śrīla Prabhupāda's disciples after his departure, and published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.
