HpS - Super! SUPER! S U P E R! One of the essential aspects of Rupa Goswami's Sadhana Bhakti is that we are up like Krsna for Brahma muhurta, one and one-half to three-quarters hours before Sunrise, chanting HK. Of course this is the actual time for Mangala arati, but even if we are just chanting HK it is so wonderful. Really without B. Muhurta we are not following principles strictly and things will become slack, and we will not get the satisfaction we need and after sometime, even a few years, we will leave and say, "Oh, I tried that, it did not work", but we have to apply it properly.

You are doing very, very well.

Become a saint like Narada Muni.
