Someone who is substantially engaged in the culture of Krishna consciousness by definition could not feel lonely.
What is real association? — It’s similar conscious culture. And by that we mean Krishna conscious.
That the Absolute could not only be the ideal counterpart for one or for many, but for everyone and simultaneously — who can conceive of such a person? — That is Krishna conception.
The only way to experience loneliness per se is to turn away from Krishna.
