Sit down and chant and try to focus on Krishna That can utilize the first two or three hours of your day. Now for the rest of the day you want to find some way to remember Krsna . You can, for instance do some activity like facebook in connection with Krishna; If it is centered on Krsna, if it is focusing your mind and the minds of others on Krsna, then yes, of course, do that. You will be purified and gradually become more Krsna conscious. So will others. And the more of your day you spend on Youtube watching lectures by Srila Prabhupada, or videos of NOD, Bhagavad gita As It Is, etc. what do you think is going to happen? You will gradually become free from the reactions of your past sins. And When you feel like it,just offer Krishna some incense and water’.Try to minimize your bodily activities. and whatever you choose to spend the hours of your day, try and center it on Krsna. And always strive to increase. Today you will be 30% engaged. Next week you have increased to 40 or 50% utilization of your time, then 60%, 70%, like that.

When Srila Prabhupada was here, we all carried a piece of paper listing every half hour of the day. When you would clean the temple, when you would attend class (there were many more then), when you would be on Sankirtan, when you would be reading (and reading, and reading). when you would sweep the temple porch, like that. Your entire day was crammed with different devotional activities and you were constantly trying to adjust your schedule on that paper to add something else. Actually, I am revealing to you the secret of becoming Krsna conscious. It is all about regularity. Make your entire day so that you do not have to be distracted and you are completely engaged in devotional service and you will gradually come to the transcendental platform. You will not have to be thinking what to do now with your time at any particular time. You have honed your day, every moment, where you are engaged in Krsna consciousness. This state does not come easily, but in the old days Srila Prabhupada set up the temples so that you could utilize literally every waking moment of your day.

And if Srila Prabhpada would pray “My dear Krsna, my pitiful disciple is sincere and he is trying to help me push on your movement. Please be kind to him and bless him.” And Krsna is always trying to please his unalloyed devotee. So from within your heart, He carries out Srila Prabhupada’s desire, and helps you. He gives you intelligence. He gives you understanding. He gives you remembrance. And you advance quickly. This is another important secret of devotional service, You advance by pleasing your spiritual master. And he asks Krsna to bless you. He has the connection to Krsna because he is on the transcendental platform. Most likely not us. So please him and your success is there.
