| "Kṛṣṇa can see within our mind how much we are surrendered and how much we are after material enjoyment. Therefore the best thing is we have to make zero. Anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyam (Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 1.1.11). Śūnyam means zero. Unless we make everything zero, simply Kṛṣṇa fact . . . Kṛṣṇa is the only fact, and everything zero. Without Kṛṣṇa, everything zero. Just like one is one, and zero is zero, but when zero is added with one, it becomes ten immediately—ten times. Similarly, this material world is zero, and Kṛṣṇa is one. If you want to enjoy the material world by your own effort, it will always prove zero. You'll never be satisfied. But you add this zero by the side of Kṛṣṇa, you enjoy like anything, ten times. Ten times. With zero it is zero, but when it is added with Kṛṣṇa, it is ten times."
