Crying out for Krsna.......................Nectarean Mellows
Every vaishnava is so precious. We shouldn’t just see it as a crowd. We should see it as an ocean of nectar. Every individual is such a precious blessing of god. But as long we are in this mood of keeping my own will in the center and demanding, we cannot appreciate Krishna consciousness. We cannot appreciate the blessing of the Lord. It’s not about me, but how can I serve - that is bhakti. And when devotees cry out, cry out for the Lord, it is in the mood of mahaprabhu. The gopis were crying to see Krishna. But they weren’t demanding. They were willing to serve Him with their heart, with their soul unconditionally forever. They were crying out for Krishna for 100 years without seeing Him. But they never became discouraged. They never gave up. “Oh! He is not coming let’s find someone else.” That was the test of their greatness that Krishna didn’t come for over a 100 years; but they kept crying to see Him; and in that crying they were seeing Him within their hearts. It was deeper than anyone else could ever see because they wanted to serve Him, and they wanted please Him.

Humility is not just a part of devotional service; it is the heart of devotional service.
To see a Vaishnava and not become happy is an offence. – Skand Puran
It is important to remind ourselves that at the end of the day, all we really have is each other.
