  Pranam Dearest Devotee. Hare Krishna.

  May you be blessed with the shelter of the God of

  Gods, the Absolute Truth and the Primeval cause

  of all the causes of the creation, sustenance and

  destruction of the manifested universes, the

  Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna.

  There is no truth superior to Him. Everything rests

  upon Him, as pearls are strung on a thread. To 

  those who are constantly devoted to serving Him

  with love, He gives the understanding by which 

  they can come to Him. Whenever a devotee is in

  distress or has fallen into difficulty, he thinks that

  it is the Lord`s mercy upon him. He thinks,

  "Thanks to my past misdeeds, I should suffer far,

  far greater than I am suffering now. So it is by

  the mercy of Lord Krishna that I am not getting

  all the punishment that I am due. I am just

  getting little, by the mercy of Lord Krishna."

  Therefore a devotee is always calm, quiet and

  patient, despite many distressful conditions. A

  devotee becomes expert in purifying the mind

  from desiring separate from the desire of Lord

  Krishna. The devotee knows that no matter how

  sweet such a desire may appear, it will only bring

  the bitter fruit of material reactions. The devotee

  purifies his mind of all aspects of gross sense

  gratification and false renunciation, as he knows

  both can keep him in material illusion. With

  love and best wishes, take care, bye.
