Obstacles

Srila Prabhupada once said that with one kick he can remove all obstacles of his disciples provided they follow his guidance. Yes, it is very difficult for us to break our habits that obstructs us from totally surrendering to Krishna. So the best way to do it is to associate more and more with devotees and serve them. When Prabhupada was asked how could one become sincere, he asked 'How can one become a drunkard?' Then he said 'by associating with drunkards'. He continued similarly by associating with devotees, we can also imbibe their habits. Associating with pure devotees is the way to be free from our anarthas - unwanted habits.

Vipin Gulati

Hari Bol, with an appropriate example you have illustrated the theory behind guarding urself completely from all the fiery darts coming at you. After running through your advice when i went outside that one little devilish thing was waiting for me to be attacked but the good news is the power of knowledge through your words made me a bit more audacious to stand still and not get muzzled. I know that is not the end of it. These kind of wrong thoughts are straying under the carpet and at anytime any thing else might pop up to entice you however as rightly mentioned by you that be in company of krishna to tighten ur barriers against these wrong thought patterns intruding in the sacred body of Shri Krishna......Thanks...HARE KRISHNA...
