The scriptures tell us of the incalculable value of even a moment’s association with a true saint, and Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja is exalted even among saints. With great sincerity, his disciples and followers thus availed themselves of any opportunity to accompany him on his morning walks and attend his morning darśanas. In those informal settings, they freely asked a variety of questions, his illuminating responses revealing a mere glimpse of the devotion radiating brilliantly within his heart. Sometimes personal, sometimes disciplinary, sometimes humorous and always loving, he would impart the deepest understandings of the scriptures for the benefit of all. It was on his repeated order that these walks and darśanas be transcribed and published. In this way, he has invited you, also, to walk with him and hear the jewel-like teachings he wants to share with you.

“To make your life successful, happy and peaceful, try to give all your love and affection to God, Kṛṣṇa. Show that love to all beings, and try to engage your entire being in helping them. One who comes to others with love has nothing to take, but everything to give.” In this booklet Śrī Śrīmad Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Gosvāmī Mahārāja explains the process to realize that selfless love.
