Topmost demigod is fearful of Hiranyakashipu, but little boy Prahlada, he is fearless from him. Why? Because Prahlada took shelter of Krishna (Abhaya Charana)”. So, if you take shelter of Krishna, you can feel the presence of the Lord.
Love of Godhead means that you surrender to God. You have to do what God says! God says that give up all religions. There are many so called religions. There is also dharma of body. We have got dharma towards our country, family and children but you will find that you will never be satisfied. What makes you satisfied? “samsiddhih-hari-tosanam”. If you can please Hari, Krishna, that is success.
1. Unless somebody is pious, he finds very difficult to surrender, because he is sinful. But because of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, even if someone is sinful but sincere, he can become a Bhakta. Best example is Jagai-Madhai.

In the land known as Bharatvarsa, even if one is “sarva kama bhakta,” thats a new kind of bhakta. “Sarva kama bhakta” is described as devotee seeking the fulfillment of some material desires, he is freed from all material desires by his association with devotees and ultimately he becomes a pure devotee and returns home, back to Godhead without difficulty.
One who is envious, he can’t be pure.
