    At my neophyte stage, how I can be sure that I am making my desires one with the Supreme is by following the directions given to me by my spiritual authorities. From Prabhupada’s example, I can understand that the directions we receive even in our beginning stages of Krishna Consciousness need to be followed at later stages also.

    When conflicting situations arise and also with day to day activities, having the consciousness of “would this be pleasing to Krsna?” gives me guidance in following this instruction.
