Do you endeavor for miseries? Nobody endeavors for miseries, but that comes. So it’s the same thing with happiness. That will also come as well as a result of our previous activities. So persons who are actually intelligent will endeavor for neither of them. They will simply endeavor to satisfy Krishna and by satisfying the Lord, by engaging in this process of hearing and chanting about Him, they will not become diverted in their activities, they will be able to keep the goal fixed in their mind and will be able to endure whatever difficulties that will happen to them by taking full shelter in Krishna consciousness.
