Krishna Krishna Everywhere

Bhakta sees his Lord present everywhere in this world and sees himself as servant. He works carefully in such a way that his all pervading Lord is not insulted or hurt. He sees people around him as an opportunity to serve his Lord.
सो अनन्य जाके असि मति न टरई हनुमंत.
में सेवक सचराचर रूप स्वामी भगवंत.
"That person is ananya bhakta who never deviates from this understanding - I am servant of all living entities in whom my master Bhagavan resides."  Bhagavan Sri Krisha is controller of the whole world and is present everywhere. Devotees sees Him everywhere and considers himself as servant of all living entities. His family is provided by Krishna to take care of them. His work is service to his employer. He is always there for the people around him. You may feel that it is difficult to practice this. You may feel overwhelmed by the fact that you have serve so many people. You need to start with practice of seeing Krishna in everyone. Imagine Krishna in those whom you see. Fill yourself with feeling of love and happiness towards them. Just desire good and happiness for people around you. As it is said:
सर्वे भवंत सुखिनः सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः
सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु माँ कश्चिद दुःख भाग्भवेत.
"May all be happy! May all be healthy! May all see the truth! May no one get suffering!"
You need to fill your heart with above feeling. Just desire it. In Kali-yug, the desire is sufficient. When this desire becomes firm, you will automatically act with this understanding.
उमा जे राम चरण रत बिगत काम मद क्रोध.
निज प्रभुमय देखही देखहि जगत केही सन करही बिरोध.
The devotees, who love the lotus feet of Ram, see this world as representation of Ram. How can such people fight or hurt other living entities? Devotee desires peace and happiness around him instead of causing fights, arguments and envious feelings. You don't have to do much. Just desire and wish happiness for everyone. Just try to see your Lord in everyone. Pray everyday for everyone's happiness.That is real peace formula. This will surely take you to your ultimate goal of Krishna bhakti.
