Going against the tide

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 3 October 2012, Bhagavad-gita class, Sydney, Australia)

Krsna consciousness is not a process where the reward comes at the end only. There is a reward that will come at the end but there also is a reward that comes immediately!

Immediately, the quality of life improves tremendously therefore one should not miss the opportunity. It is a little difficult because the world at large, in this age of Kali, is going in another direction. And one has to have certain strength of character to stand up against the constant influence that is telling us to go there. Therefore, it is important that we are get support and for that reason we have temples and we have many programs and we meet again and again! Because just as with bathing, one has to do it again and again, and cannot say, "Well, I took bath yesterday. You have to believe it, I scrubbed for one hour!"

Very good but what about today? Bathing must be regular and in the same way, we must bathe the consciousness in sabda brahman, the transcendental sound!
