"To think of such a vaisnava or vaisnavas, to glorify such a vaisnava, to think of such vaisnavas, to think of his instructions, to remember the instruction, keeping in your mind the instructions of such vaisnavas is a rarely achieved boon, durlabha asirvada, one who does so, only he will be able to do the bhajan of Radha Govinda. Otherwise you cannot do the bhajan of Radha Govinda, to serve Radha Govinda, such an opportunity will never be available to you. Therefore you have to hear from the lips of such a devotee vaishnava. That is association. Association means what?. Association means to hear Bhagavatam Katha, Krshna katha, from the lips of such a pure devotee vaishnava. Yei Krishna tattva-vetta, sei 'guru' haya. Simple definition. Mahaprabhu gave, who is guru. Yei Krishna tattva-vetta, sei 'guru' haya. One who knows Krishna, he is a guru. Who hears from him. To hear from him with concentrated attention, completely taking shelter, surrendering unto him, putting complete faith, unflinching faith in his words, that is sanga, that is association. That is the association. Association means imbibe the mood of the sadhu. That is association, to imbibe the mood of the sadhu. Yes sadhu's mood is what? Krishna-prema. It is loving mood. It is loving mood. Who loves Krishna, he loves one and all. He sees Krishna everywhere: Oh he is Krishna dasa. He is Krishna's. So he loves everybody, That's the mood of a guru"
