... Just as Krishna says: "If you offer Me a little leaf, a flower, a fruit or water with love and devotion - that's what I will accept." If in his consciousness one is offering with love - that's what He is accepting. It's the consciousness with which one is working. But if one is working thinking: "I want the result," then Krishna doesn't accept, and neither does Krishna give the result.
