Why is it that we don't always experience joyfulness? We have to understand that we don’t always experience the joyfulness of Krishna consciousness because we are still conditioned and need to purify our hearts. That still has to take place. We still have to give up sense gratification. But Lord Caitanya is making it easier. He is making it easier to give up sense gratification because first He is giving us the only means by which we can give up sense gratification. He is giving us Krishna's Holy Names.
