This is the position of Krishna Consciousness that if anyone will take to it seriously, he will find instant improvement in his life’s condition. The purpose of our centers for Krishna Consciousness is to give everyone the opportunity to remove this cloud of Maya from their consciousness and resume their natural, blissful life of rendering devotional service to Lord Krishna.
