Regular Visits Despite Someone’s Absence

“If one of these three was not present, He would meet the others. That was His regular practice.”

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya 1.65, translation

What the purport teaches

  • Sometimes one of the three was not present.
  • When this happened, He would meet the others.
  • Meeting those who were present was His regular practice.

Try this today

Make time today to speak with someone who is available, even if another person you hoped to meet is absent.

Ask yourself

Can I value meeting those who are available rather than focus on who is absent?

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

The study points are short summaries drawn from Śrīla Prabhupāda's translation and purport; the practice and question are plain words for trying the verse today.
