How to Make the World Happy
Srila Prabhupada has to kindly taught us how to make the world happy. Here is how he revealed this to us in a lecture he gave in Mayapur, India on 1 April 1975:
Prabhupada: So Vaikuntha-loka is there. There is no problem. But you can make this maya-loka also Vaikuntha-loka by spreading Krishna consciousness, the same quality. Just like iron is iron, but you can make it fire. How? Simply putting it into the fire. Gradually, warm, warmer, then it becomes red hot. At that time, the iron is no longer iron; it is fire. Similarly, if you can propagate Krishna consciousness constantly, then, by spreading this Krishna consciousness movement, you can make the whole world Krishna conscious, and then it will be Vaikuntha. The same example: You put the iron rod with the fire, and it becomes hot, hotter and then red hot. When it is red hot then it is no more iron rod; it is fire. Anywhere you touch, it will burn.
So our Krishna consciousness movement is for that purpose. Increase Krishna consciousness and there will be no more kuntha, no more anxiety. People are trying to be anxiety-less, and that is only possible by this movement. Put always in touch with Krishna. And the method is very simple: Hare Krishna.
Devotees: Hare Krishna!
Prabhupada: That's all. If you keep yourself in touch with Hare Krishna... We have already been known as Hare Krishna people all over the world, Hare Krishna people. So increase this population Hare Krishna people, and it will be Vaikuntha. Thank you very much.
Thank you, Srila Prabhupada, for so kindly us the formula how the whole world can be happy,

My Dear Nitish,
Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
We offer the job of dedicating your entire life to make everyone in the
world happy by making them Krishna conscious. We do not pay a salary
for those who accept this job. But the reward is truly unlimited because by doing so you will become very, very dear to Lord Krishna as the Lord Himself confirms in the Bhagavd-gita, Chapter 18, Texts 68 and 69:
ya idaṁ paramaṁ guhyaṁ
mad-bhakteṣv abhidhāsyati
bhaktiṁ mayi parāṁ kṛtvā
mām evaiṣyaty asaṁśayaḥ
na ca tasmān manuṣyeṣu
kaścin me priya-kṛttamaḥ
bhavitā na ca me tasmād
anyaḥ priyataro bhuvi
Translation: "For one who explains this supreme secret to the devotees, pure devotional service is guaranteed, and at the end he will come back to Me. There is no servant in this world more dear to Me than he, nor will there ever be one more dear.”
I hope this meets you in the best of health and in an ecstatic mood.
