hare krsna...
During our geeta session i asked a similar question....what will be the consequences if i wont follow krishna consciousness properly does god punish me fo that ...? krsna kamal das prabhu ji explained very beautifully....like if a father tell his son to study properly if his son don't study properly what will happen..? i said that son will ruin his life himself....thn he asked does his father had anything to do with tht??? i said no the complete fault will be to hs son....
similarly lord krsna tell us to follow these four regulative principle for our welfare...if we won't follow we will see consequences...
like if i booze...intoxication will ruin my health..
illict sex will make me more lusty..will break my concentration....
eating nonveg....can not satisfy my taste bud i will become more agitated and frustrated ( jaisa kahuge aan waisa hoga mann)
gambling will made you lose all the hard worked money is earned...choice is yours...!
Krishna loves His devotees & listens to their complaints as He protects them bad associations. When the devotees are displeased Krishna protects them. However, He (Krishna) still loves all those who call on Hi's names and who also work towards avoiding offences. Perfect question perfect answers. In my exp. The greatest consequence is (the displeased of the other devotees) & the lose of their ecstatic association.-)(>:-(
HAray bolah
Krsna sees your inner desire the most. There are many devotees who may not be able to follow all the regulative principles due to time, place and circumstances. Would that mean that Krsna would not reciprocate to their devotion?
The consequences would be mainly that we will not develop love towards krsna or His names.

Hare Krsna,
My obeisances to all devotees, guru and gauranga.

Chant and be happy.
Srila prabhupada ki jai..
Hare krsna
Hare Krsna Prabhuji,
PAMHO.
To overcome falling down from following 4 regulative principles, one has to chant properly. That is the medicine and that is the cure.
Do not worry about consequences - worry about how to make it happen - what to do that one follows the regulative principles.
Association of devotees goes a long way in following the regulative principles.
Which of the principles is a problem?
Haribol,
YOur servant,
Radha Rasamayi DD
Association of pure devotees is essential.
