(Kadamba Kanana Maharaja, 28 December 2011, Pretoria, SA) We are incredibly close to the time of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and the whole world is touched by the mercy of Caitanya Mahaprabhu, which is present everywhere but people don’t see it because the influence of Kali is very present…The pressure of the Age of Kali is very strong. As soon as we step out of the gate it’s another world, as everyone knows! Of course we bring with us, in that world, whatever mercy we have received. The mercy of Caitanya Mahaprabhu comes through our life and then it’s up to us to do something with it. Some don’t do so much but still they have the mercy and they keep it. Some are not looking after the mercy so well then the mercy may become a little bit dry but it’s still there and is still not gone. But those who are really taking it and making something out of it and are really trying to take advantage of it, then their spiritual life starts flourishing. It’s an individual thing….everyone has his own relationship with Krsna. Some are going to stay in this material world for another 100 000 lives and some are going to go back this life! It’s up to the individual to decide where he wants to be…
