doubt and confession
TLGSP! PAMHO!
Dear Gurudeva: several years ago, I spent several days without completing the 16 rounds daily, I kept track of how many I was missing, especially on the days I stayed in the temple, or with some devotees that told me to do some services first and finish the rounds tomorrow but for several days the same thing happened, with the various changes in my possessions, I lost the exact amount to replace, for a long time during his visits I wanted to tell him about it but for several years it was difficult for me to find a moment to tell him about this situation that seemed extremely intimate to me, so for several years now I chant a minimum of 18 and in the last year I have been chanting at least 32 rounds on Ekadasi. In these years since I committed to singing at least 16. And although many years have passed since all this and thanks to your constant example, I have not failed to complete the 16 minimum, in many consecutive years, possibly I have done more than what was missing but I always wanted to tell you. I have changed japamala many times, because they have been broken, or they have been taken from me. I try chant all 16 in a row although there are days when I have to complete them in parts throughout the day. And although many years have passed since all this and thanks to your constant example, I have not failed to complete the 16 minimum, in many consecutive years. A few days ago in a drawing of yours, I have a question about how we can avoid becoming wolves in iskcon clothing, and if we already are, how can we realize it and what can we do to fix it?
Thaks very much for be an excellent example of how to be a good devotee, your crew member Aniruddhakrsna Das.

😊
He has created such a wonderful society.
Your determination is so helpful.
🐺 We think the basic principal is expect that it is Krsna who will be the initiator.
He will often, sincerely, continuously reach out to us to save us from our hypocritical attachments.
A phrase in a book.
A passing devotees look.
Introspective thoughts in our mind.
Then... we must be faithful. We must listen to, consider, apply His help.
Ooof. Can be hard.
O. K?
