A Thrilling Adventure 24 Hours a Day
By fully dedicating my life to spreading Krishna consciousness all over the world, there is no question of idle time or a dull moment. There is so much work to do to awaken the dormant Krishna consciousness within the hearts of all that 24 hours a day is just not enough time to get the work done. In Krishna consciousness life easily becomes transformed into an endless, ever-increasingly thrilling adventure.
Why only read about, hear about, or watch movies about the real and imaginary adventures of others? By taking up the life of propagating Krishna consciousness to everyone we meet, we can live inside our own exciting adventure movie at every second.
In this supreme lifestyle sleeping, although necessary to keep up the health, becomes a source of frustration as we see how much time is being wasted every day. Eating Krishna prasadam (vegetarian foodstuffs offered with love and devotion to Lord Sri Krishna), although a source of great spiritual enlivenment and energy, also becomes an impediment, if too much is consumed, because the digestive process sucks energy away from the brain diverting it to the stomach.
When we develop a taste for telling others about Krishna, we experience the highest ecstasy of spiritual life. Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita that there is no one more dear to Him than the one who tells others about Him.

Krishna's enjoyment has nothing to do with the material senses. Nor can we factually enjoy the activities of the material senses. The only thing that is actually enjoyable is to engage our senses in the service of Krishna, the master of the senses.
Krishna is described as the master of the senses. It is not correct to understand Him as the enjoyer of the senses.
The animal propensities of eating, sleeping, mating, and defending are all being conducted within the realm of the Lord's external energy. Lord Krishna is situated far, far beyond the scope of the external energy. He is situated within His eternal, all blissful internal energy. So it is not that when a person is having sexual union, the so-called love making of this material world, that they are having sex with God.
Attachment for the so-called love making is a hard knot in the heart that keeps one entangled in the cycle of birth and death. Therefore we must detach ourselves from this sort of love-making business.
Of course, if we are married and we desire to raise some Krishna conscious children, we can, with the blessings of our spiritual master, attempt to plant the seed of a human being within the womb of our wife through the authorized system of spiritual sex life.
