Hare krishna!
Why I feel I need a guru-
I have been reading gita for 1 year and read bhagwat gita marathi version daily almost thrice a day but sometimes find it difficult to stay away from distractions and do hardwork .Also unable to understand exactly how to devote my studies to krishna .Shrila prabhupad said bhakti is sweet but I feel the same.is the path of bhakti painful at the beginning .i am trying to wake early for chanting but unable to do that too.i have a lot more to ask and am confused I am ready to do hardwork but can't find a path as just reading books and through one's intelligence one can't progress in bhakti .that's why I feel I need a guru so .one temple is near me so exactly what protocols to follow so that I can get a guru?
Thanks very much
