"Hare Krishna Maharaj Ji 

Your question made me think. I apologize for late reply. I think by nature we look for easier things acccoustic and visual is easy.

That's why so many friendships are superficial.

My firm belive is that if you are a serious devotee and your heart is regularly cleaned everyday with chanting, including living your life with good principles, we have an access to one more connection.

Connection through the heart.

A devotee can feel and communicate with his or her heart.

That connection, that love, that compassion is so special that you don't need visual or acoustic help to have friendship or connection to the devotee. 

I don't know if I am making sense or not. Forgive me

Jai Prabhupada"

HpS/ASA - Hare Krsna. Thank you for your text message. Posting here in Blog because ten more people might benefit, also

we will be able to express our thoughts on the matter 9-less times. 🙂

Our thought would be that in the beginning our hearts may be very hard, even stonelike.

We may see everyone and everything for our gratification.

Even if our gratification is to be praised by others for our "charity" and "humanism".

So, we can't communicate heart to heart, or Buddhi to Buddhi, Bhava to Bhana, spiritual intelligence to spiritual intelligence.

So, Krsna and Guru come in front of our eyes and ears, and smile, chant, dance with such potency that it can reach our dull heart and change it.

As we become purified, softened at heart, become Goswami, then (BG 10.12-13) we can associate with other soft hearted people, saints, but it will always be possible, like in Caitanya-caritamrta through the purified senses also.

O.K??
