Srila Narottama dasa Thakura says in his bhajan, ''It does not make any difference whether you are a brahmacari, grhastha, vanaprastha or sannyasi; if you become happy by taking part in Lord Caitanya's sankirtana movement, I want to associate with you.'' This is the proper basis for association in Krishna consciousness.
