Hare Krishna
In Nectar of Devotion Ch-6 it's said "One should not instruct a person who is not desirous of accepting devotional service." desen't it conflict when we try to preach to non devotees?

Hare Krishna Mataji,
What I understood is that while preaching if someone doesn't want to accept devotional service altogether and/or we're not able to convince them in such a scenario we should not go on instructing them about the glories of Krishna and devotional service because in that way both preacher and non-devotee are committing offences. Preacher is committing offence because he/she is neither able to defeat the opposing party by argument nor that he/she is leaving that place and non-devotee is committing offence because even after hearing the glories of the holy name and Krishna is not believing in them and possibly committing Vaishnav apradh by offending the devotee as well.

Hare Krishna,
Thank you for clearing this doubt that we can preach to them who want yo listen and not otherwise.
