Prabhupada wanted to see everyone become devotees. That means the heart changes, and that means that that desire that is there lying dormant within the heart has to grow more and more. We need help for that to take place. It is not an individual person's efforts that can overcome the obstacles of material life. We need to take help from the Holy Name of the Lord, we need to take help from the devotees of the Lord. We must always depend upon the association of the devotees of the Lord, because it is in the association of devotees that most of our advancement in Krishna consciousness will come.
