My heart, which is disturbed by the three miserable conditions of material life, is not yet sated with hearing you describe the glorious activities of the Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the master of the devotees.

Personal Guidance
Parīkṣit confesses his heart, burned by the threefold miseries, is still not satisfied with hearing about the Lord. Real bhakti increases hunger rather than satisfying it. The taste for kṛṣṇa-kathā grows the more it is fed.
Reflection Questions
- Has my appetite for hearing about the Lord grown over the past year, or shrunk?
- Where am I confusing emotional fatigue with spiritual satisfaction?
