If the whole day instead of Hare Krsna Hare Krsna, we chant no Maya, no
Maya, no Maya, no Maya then that would be difficult. So the more we are
busy in service to Krsna the less opportunity there is for Maya. That is
the way to conquer Maya. The only way to conquer Maya is by becoming
absorbed in service to Krsna. You cannot conquer Maya in any other way. Its
not, first Ill conquer Maya and then Ill serve Krsna., but it is serve
Krsna and Maya will be conquered.(Kadamba Kanana Maharaja, June 2011, New
Ekachakra, Slovakia)

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 2011)
We are trapped in birth, death, old age and disease. So these are the real
traps and no matter how you arrange the society…no matter where we live or
how comfortable one lives, no one can overcome these basic problems.
Birth, disease old age and death, will always re emerge no matter what and
there we are really trapped -trapped in suffering. So this understanding
comes gradually. In the beginning one thinks:
'That in the world there is happiness and distress….there is enjoyment and
suffering….and if only I could get all the enjoyment and avoid the
suffering then everything would be great! And that's all….and its just a
matter of figuring it out. Eventually somehow or other doctor it out. A
little suffering – alright we can take, but if it's mostly enjoyment then
my life is a success!'
Gradually we realise that whatever enjoyment there is in the material world
then it is very meagre…very limited and that basically it can never fulfil
our need for enjoyment! We may enjoy but there is no fulfilment…and between
the two there is a big difference. Yes enjoy but still unfulfilled. That is
the best we can get out of material enjoyment. So what to do! And that is
temporary also! Therefore, gradually we begin to see with a more sharp
focus!

Making advancement all the time

The real progress that you make is from the first little bit of service to
Krsna and it gets more real day by day. But we dont realise it yet. I
compare that to growing old. Growing old is such a thing that it happens
slowly, you dont notice it until one day you look in the mirror and you
think, my God! Do I have a lot of lines! I never had those before. Thats
how growing old is, you grow old everyday but you dont see it everyday. We
make spiritual advancement everyday but we dont see it but sometimes we
have a moment where we feel, Im actually getting something But we are
making advancement all the time.
