Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! I am so happy to be here learning how to serve Krishna! I live near and serve at Radha Kalachandji's Dham in Dallas, Texas. I'm looking for devotees to associate with so that i can become purified and then learn how to love and please Krishna!

What are your expectations from this community?

I hope to gain a better understanding of how to love Krishna and His devotees. I have been serving and associating with the devotees at Radha Kalachandji's, and so i hope to ask questions about service and etiquette so that i can please Srila Prabhupada until a spiritual master accepts me. His Holiness Radhanath Swami has said in his lectures that one should deserve then desire. This means that I should focus on serving to the best of my ability to please Srila Prabhupada. But if I am going to serve well, then I need to know "the basics". If it pleases Krishna, please help me on my path! Any words of wisdom are appreciated! Jaya Radha Kalachandji! Your aspiring servant, Jason
