• What does he plant who plants a tree?
  He plants the friend of sun and sky;
  He plants the flag of breezes free;
  The shaft of beauty, towering high, he plants a home to heaven anigh.
  For song and mother-croon of bird, in hushed and happy twilight heard -
  The treble of heaven's harmony.
  These things he plants who plants a tree.

• When the kirtan is harmonious with so many people, it’s a tumultuous beautiful sound. We can’t hear just one voice during the chorus; or rather we do hear one voice. But that one voice is actually the sound of everyone’s voice in harmony. That’s our offering to God. And why is it so pleasing to the Lord? Because we are all cooperating for a higher purpose. We are all united for the pleasure of the center, for the pleasure of Krishna, in spite of all our differences.
