DOUBTS ABOUT ASKING FOR APOLOGIES

10 years, 4 months ago by David Ananda in Personal Sadhana Reports

AGTSri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Sri Nityananda Prabhu,

AGTSRILA Prabhupada.

Maharaja, hope you are in a good moment of this life and plenty of health and nice moments surround you. We´re very happy to know soon you´ll be with us here in Argentina.

This morning after daily bath I had a memory and meditate in that memory and got a "don´t know what to do" conclusion, this is why I got close to you to ask for advise: It is good to say sorry to another devotee just because Vaisnava protocols? Even when you do not feel it that way, or it is better to not say nothing till you really got the honest feeling?

           HpS - ASA --- Jnana-misra-bhakti yoga is the platform where our service is done because we understand it is the correct thing to do even if we don't have profound feelings about it. If you don't feel sorry then maybe you should not be sorry. Look for a deeper reason why you don't feel sorry. Then maybe you should not apologize or apologize from a different perspective etc.
Ask devotees who know the situation.


Kind of hard to struggle with such feelings, you know many times you cannot coordinate with everyone and you know what is right to do but you cannot so easily to make mind understand that (or heart like stone, not sure).

I´ve did what I thought is better, that is asking for him to pardon me but I feel, I mean I know, I have not been so sincere and really, I do not want to have contact with that devotee anymore, its like perceiving his environment and cultural patterns do not match with me.

Sorry for this letter, I feel in ignorance right now, please Maharaja take away this darkness.

All glories to you lotus feet,
David.
              HpS - So many detailed situations, detailed relationships. Best to focus on our practical service coming from Srila Prabhupada and then these details will work out nicely, no?
