Various fall-downs. Eg. not getting up for Mangala arati. Various. General Idea: Get association. Make a pact with someone else to wake each other up. Make a report in the Blog of your Mangala arati score.
Sangat sanjayate kamah: Our desires and ambitions develop from the company we keep.
We take some Chocolate covered P-nuts sometimes when in stress, traveling. Ramanuja Das asked Prabhupada if Insia pickles were in the mode of goodness, and Srila Prabhupada said, "No, but we take a little". Our Sankirtan life sometimes puts us in the association of passion and ignorance.
So maybe a little pickle.

But... are you addicted? Are you doing it for sense gratification or as a result of your austerity to do Sankirtan? How o find out? Give it up for a month.
So, along with one Pujari we are going to renounce all chocolate for one year.
If we are failure or success we will report next year.

Anybody else have new year's vows! <img alt="smiley" height="23" src="http://www.hps.monkeywarrior.com/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/regular_smile.png" title="smiley" width="23" />
