As a smart businessman knows how to make
the best use of money, a devotee of the Lord
knows how this human form of life can be utilized,
and because of this knowledge he is interested in
seeing that the entire humanity takes advantage
of the human life and engages in practicing the
principles that are explained in the revealed
scriptures.

When you are on the street trying to sell a
book or trying to sell a sticker or trying to
get someone to take a flower, what should be your
meditation? Your meditation should be, “Krishna
here is a conditioned soul who has gone away from
you. Please make me an instrument so I can bring
him back to you.”

To approach the Supreme Personality of
Godhead, one must give up the activities
of the mind. In other words, the activities of the
mind, thinking, feeling, and willing, have to be
purified.
