| "our meditation, Vaiṣṇava, devotees' meditation, is very easy. For the haṭha-yogīs, they have to select place, āsana. Dhyāna, dhāraṅā, āsana . . . Āsana is also one of the activities. But here, in Vaiṣṇava philosophy, you are seeing the Deity always, at least daily, so you have got some impression that, "Our temple Deity is like this." That impression, either you are sitting in one place without any activities, sthitaṁ vrajantam . . . while walking on the street also, you can think of this Deity. There is no difficulty, either you are sitting or you are walking or you are standing—any way—because the mind is there in Kṛṣṇa, in Kṛṣṇa's form. Therefore Deity worship is so essential for the neophyte."
