Tired of Krishna Consciousness

Question: Tired of Krishna Consciousness

I have read in all the books of Srila Prabhupada that 24 hours engagement in Krishna consciousness activities is the best. The problem with me is that I get tired after spending sometime in Krishna consciousness and then material desires crop up in my mind. What is the solution to this problem?

Answer: Stop Trying to Be the Enjoyer

If you truly love someone you will always engage in serving that person. There will be no question of being tired of serving. So instead of trying to enjoy Krishna consciousness you should try to lovingly give pleasure to Krishna. In this way you will derive unlimited pleasure from Krishna consciousness and never want to give it up even for a moment. In other words, if we try to make ourselves the center, we will naturally get tired after a while because this is not our constitutional position. If we instead always make Krishna the center and ourselves as His subordinate servants, there will never be any question of tiredness.
