So if you accept Krsna consciousness, then life of ignorance will finish and you come to the light and become liberated. If you come to Krsna consciousness, the light is there. Therefore the darkness of life is dissipated. Therefore it is said, aradhito yadi haris tapasa tatah kim: [Narada-pancaratra] "If you have learned how to worship Hari, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, then there is no more use of your tapasya." [break] ...aradhito yadi haris tapasa tatah kim: "And if you cannot understand Hari, then what is the use of your tapasya?" Antar-bahir yadi haris tapasa tatah kim: "If you can see Hari, Krsna, within yourself and outside yourself, then what is the use of tapasya?" Nantar-bahir, antar-bahir yadi haris tapasa tatah kim: "And if you have not learned to see Krsna, Hari, within yourself and outside, then what is the use of your tapasya?"
