The Most Important Thing

Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He knows everything. He will give to all according to their qualifications. Initiation from a qualified guru is not the most prominent thing. What is the most important thing? To obey and to follow his instructions is most important.

I don’t want you to fall down. Be very strong. If we cannot actually chant the name daily or practice daily, then what will happen? Only hearing will not do. I want you to practice. Like Rupa Gosvami has said in his Upadesamrta.

We should try to chant more with our whole heart—with relation to Krsna—giving up all kinds of offenses and anarthas. If any devotee is practicing like this, after some time detachment to worldly things is bound to come. If detachment is not coming, and if some taste for Krsna’s name is not coming, no inspiration to follow sravana, kirtanam, visnu-smaranam is coming, then you are not practicing properly.
