(Kadamba Kanana Swami, October 2010, Sydney, Australia)

Spiritual life is never cheap, never ever! It's never that you get it for nothing. Without
the effort it is not possible. Spiritual life means that you always need to make an
endeavour and each time there is a new one; just as you think, 'I've got it under
control, now I've got it figured out! Now I've done this for a year and it's not a problem, I can rise early…' right there, there is a new challenge. And if you don't stay on the cutting edge of taking a
challenge for Krsna and trying to do difficult things for Krsna then immediately
spiritual life becomes dry again.
