How to Become Dear to Krishna
Srila Prabhupada very wonderfully explains as follows in Chapter 14 of The Teachings of Lord Caitanya how we can become dear to Krishna:
The perfectional stage of spiritual life which one can experience even while being in the material world is described in the Twelfth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā as follows: "One who is not envious but who is a kind friend to all living entities, who does not think himself a proprietor, who is free from false ego and equal both in happiness and distress, who is always satisfied and engaged in devotional service with determination and whose mind and intelligence are in agreement with Me—he is very dear to Me. He for whom no one is put into difficulty and who is not disturbed by anxiety, who is steady in happiness and distress, is very dear to Me. A devotee who is not dependent on the ordinary course of activities, who is pure, expert, without cares, free from all pains, and who does not strive for some result, is very dear to Me. One who grasps neither pleasure or grief who neither laments nor desires, and who renounces both auspicious and inauspicious things, is very dear to Me. One who is equal to friends and enemies, who is equipoised in honor and dishonor, heat and cold, happiness and distress, fame and infamy, who is always free from contamination, always silent and satisfied with anything, who doesn't care for any residence, who is fixed in knowledge and engaged in devotional service, is very dear to Me. He who follows this imperishable path of devotional service and who completely engages himself with faith, making Me the supreme goal, is very, very dear to Me." (Bg. 12.13-20) Even if one is not situated in such a transcendental position, if he simply approves of such a transcendental life, he also becomes very dear to Kṛṣṇa.

So let us now take full advantage of these most wonderful instructions given to by Srila Prabhupada and make our lives unlimitedly sublime by becoming very dear to Lord Sri Krishna.

You have very well explained about how wrong abortion is. So what about the people who knowingly or unknowingly involved in abortion. How to get rid of the feeling of guilt? How to correct themselves?

There is only one solution. They must fully surrender to Krishna. Otherwise they will be punished in the same way in the next life. Thus in the next life they also enter the womb of a mother and will be killed in the same way. They will also be aborted.
