We are very happy to be in Vác again, and our dear Krishnanand always organizes everything so beautifully. Krishnanand is a very faithful disciple, and not only he, but his whole family. We have known each other since 1977, and from that time onwards, he has been a great devotee. Many different situations have come to the country, good and bad. That is saṃsāra; that is the world. But Krishnanand always kept the light of Mahāprabhujī, the divine light, alive. Imagine you have a light in your hand, a flame, and you have to go somewhere. There is a storm, so you must not let the flame go out. For that, you need divine love and protection. Or, you have a pot in your hand, full of water or oil, and you have to go through waves, hurricanes, and turbulence without letting even one drop fall out. This example is for all of you in your life. You know you have had many, many turbulences in your life. If you remember, you will cry. How many wounds do you have in your heart which are not yet healed? That is what brought you here: to get the remedy of the Gurudeva’s Vākya, the appointment of wisdom to heal those wounds. It is you who is now going through the storm, holding in your hands the flame of spirituality. One negative thought, and the flame is gone. It is said: "Sabhe sahayak sabal ke aur kohun nirbal sahay pavan jagavat aag ko aur deepai deta bujai." "Sabhe sahayak sabal ke." Everyone is helping the strong one. "Kohun nirbal sahay?" No one is the helper of the meek one. The same storm can make a big fire. A small spark of fire—the air can make it so big that the whole forest burns. Or, "deepai deta bujai": instead of this little small funk of the fire, if there is a flame, the wind will blow it off instead of supporting it to grow. So, in your heart, you have that beautiful divine flame. And your negative thinking, listening to criticisms, emotions, anger, hate—these are winds, hurricanes. One thought, and the light is gone out. One action, and confidence is lost, and you are again in darkness. Therefore, protect the light. So Krishnanand is great because bhaktas are great, and you are all here because of him, especially the Hungarians. Many Hungarians went through the training. It is easy to blame someone, easy to point out mistakes, but it is not easy to bring the flame from one sword to another. And so we are happy that Kṛṣṇānand every time organizes beautiful programs here. And Abhayānand is very great; he is truly Abhayānand. Abhaya means fearless. And Amṛtānand—they are all dedicated to the Gurudev.
