So Krishna consciousness doesn't involve giving up material things. It means giving up the perverted mentality of trying to enjoy these things apart from our relationship to God. But instead we've come to glorify God and remind everyone of our eternal loving relationship with Him. So even our tents, trucks, and amplifiers are spiritual. When the tent was filled to overflowing, the Maharaja led the Hare Krishna Band on stage for a three-hour concert of transcendental music.
People try to love one another, but in the end they're frustrated.
The ultimate love is the soul's love for Krishna and His love for all souls. The highest form of music expresses love for God. That music is a transmission of Krishna's tangible presence and loving pastimes. At the peak of the performance, Dhrstadyumna Swami jumped up and got the whole tent of onlookers on their feet to chant Hare Krishna and dance. Then the Maharaja began throwing the marigolds decorating the stage.
