Eager for the Mercy
Krishna's mercy is available for all in unlimited quantities so there is plenty of it to go around for everyone. It is not like some material thing such as oil that will gradually run out as the supply becomes exhausted. No. Everyone can get as much as they want without any fear of a shortage.
So how will we qualify ourselves to get the mercy of Krishna? Caitanya Mahaprabhu advises that one should be eager to purchase this Krishna consciousness at any price. Is he talking about our spending millions of dollars to achieve this most sublime treasure? No. Rupa Goswami advises that the only price for getting the mercy of Krishna is laulyam, eagerness. We should be very, very eager to see Krishna and speak with Krishna in this very lifetime. Of course this does not mean that we should cheaply demand that He become present before us. What it does mean is that we should attract the Lord to mercifully reveal Himself to us by sincere humble service.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:
Question: Doomsday in 2012?
Everyone is talking about the year 2012 and the day 21.12.2012, and they call it dooms day. They say that the earth will no more be in existence because of Mars, an asteroid, or a world war, etc. They also mention the predictions of the Mayan Indians and Nostradamus for that particular date. Is this prediction true? Kindly let me know.Conjeevaram
Answer: Don't Listen to Speculators
I don't know who this so-called "they" refers to. But I do know that the so-called doomsday date is not bona fide, because this earth planet will not be destroyed until the entire universe becomes destroyed at the time of the universal devastation 155 trillion years from now. We cannot count on the predictions made by those persons who are still under the influence of the three modes of material nature. If we want accurate predictions we must hear from those who are completely beyond the influence of the three modes of material nature. These persons are called tri-kala-jna, the perfect knowers of past, present, and future. They can give us perfection of all things that have occurred in the past, things that are happening, and will be happening in this universe millions and trillions of years from now.Sankarshan Das Adhikari
