\"\"<\/a>Krsna personally takes charge of the life of his devotee. Srila Madhvacarya mentioned that when a devotee says, \u201cKrsna I\u2019m yours!\u201d<\/em> then from that day on, Krsna will fully accept that devotee under his personal care. So in this way, Krsna is directly involved our lives. Krsna is also present within the heart as caitya-guru<\/em>,\u00a0the guru that resides within the heart.<\/p>\n

It is mentioned in the Bhagavad-gita (10.11),<\/em> in the purport to the verse\u00a0te\u1e63\u0101m <\/em>ev\u0101nukamp\u0101rtham, <\/em>Srila Prabhupada explains that the\u00a0spiritual\u00a0master gives directions to the disciple on how to become free from the influence of the material energy, how to make advancement and how to eventually go back to Godhead. However, if sometimes, even in spite of getting good instructions, the disciple does not actually\u00a0follow these instructions \u2013 does not take proper advantage of these instructions \u2013 then Krsna will make arrangements from within. Krsna will make arrangements!<\/strong> Krsna will either give us transcendental knowledge from within or he pulls the carpet from under us and our whole life tumbles upside down \u2013 then what can we do!? Then suddenly only Krsna is left.<\/p>\n

There was a congregational devotee in Amsterdam who was thinking,\u00a0\u201cShall I move into the temple or shall I not? Shall I or shall I not?\u201d <\/em>He was just going on and on and never came to a conclusion, so he never moved into the temple. Then he went to Vrindavan and while he was in Vrindavan, he got news that his house had burnt down \u2013 the whole house \u2013 and when your house burns down, it is not only your house that burns down but irreplaceable things go as well! So all irreplaceable\u00a0things just turn to ashes. His whole life had turned to ashes and he was homeless so he had no other option but to move into the temple!<\/p>\n

Krsna protects us from maya<\/em>\u00a0and sometimes even against our will. Oh yes, even when we\u00a0would not\u00a0have it then still, Krsna makes some arrangements for us. Krsna is very merciful and he is very kind!<\/p>\n
