how fertile is our heart to Lord Caitanyas preaching !

Jesus Christ about preaching
In the new Testament there is a story Jesus Christ once told about preaching the glories of God, Jesus said that when a farmer throws seeds some may fall in land that is not so fertile ,some in semi fertile land some may even fall on stones and Rocky surface accordingly to the fertility of the land the harvest will be accordingly, When we preach according to the audience they will benefit according to how fertile their hearts are to the message of Godhead .
Krsna says in Bhagavad Gita we have the right to do our duties, in this case we are talking about preaching ,but you can not be attached to the result and understanding we are not the doers or enjoyers of the result all is up to Krsna.Daily on bookdistribution you learn like this you try to distribute Srila Prabhupadas books and make people Krsna consciouss , but how many books we distribute and how it affects them is all up to Krishna but we do our best to be proper tools in Krsnas and our Gurudevs lotushands .Next day we go to another city detached of yesterdays result , book distribution is the most important service in ISKCON ...because people of this world needs this knowledge ,So whether we distribute books or preach to devotees or non devotees we can not be attached to the result we give them what we have and if they are fortunate they will benefit ..For example you will see in my postings I often talk about chanting 64 rounds, but it is not something that can be rushed into, because one needs to be paying attention to every single rounds, not just chanting more for namesake I am chanting so much , but actually listening to the Mahamantra, the result of chanting 64 rounds will lead to knowing your Sthaiya Bhava your eternal relationship with Krsna ,in details not only that I am Krsnas servant ,But how will I serve Krsna in Goloka Vrindavana by the grace of Sri Gurudeva and Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu and the Holy name these things will become understood ,those who take shortcuts and say 16 rounds is enough are risking to extend their stay in the material world , Lord Caitanyas order was 64 rounds , NOT 16 ...how fertile is our heart to accept this instruction of Lord Caitanya ?

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada wrote in his commentary to Caitanya Bhagavata : laksesvara vyatita gaura-bhaktira adarsa
gaudiyajana kehai svikara karena na.
"This is the precise reason why the real Gaudiya-bhaktas do not accept any other ideal (adarsa) in Gaura-bhakti or Krishna-bhakti except the process of chanting 100,000 Names of the Maha-mantra daily.
