We may have our own particular services and means for pleasing Krishna’s devotees and Prabhupada. However, particularly during the Christmas marathon, there is an emphasis for everyone to get the opportunity to do a little bit more. It is available for anyone who wants to take part. Nobody is going to push anyone. However, all opportunities are there. If we actually feel the pushing from within, it is a great opportunity to become Prabhupada conscious and to really meditate on what is so dear to his heart. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity that we should not miss out on. Do not let this lifetime pass without at least once experiencing what it is like to taste a marathon for Srila Prabhupada’s pleasure. I say that from my heart and from my own direct realization and experience. I leave these words with you, and I invite you to please take advantage of Srila Prabhupada’s mercy.
