Work more than Maya
Work hard for Krishna like karmis. If you have 50 works in a day, you do 70 works. That is right. Work more than maya. Then she will have no time to disturb you.

If you are trying sincerely, then Krishna will consider that and won’t mind your inabilities.
Whatever service Guru gives, will be heavy. Because of that heaviness and stress, the disciple will be able to get out of maya.
1. What is pure devotional service? ‘anyabhilashita-shunyam’….give up the material desire completely.
2. Devotional service must be done in such a way that we forget bodily comforts first, then bodily demands. For this, the service or engagement should be of interest so that we become absorbed in such a way that maya don’t disturb us.
Guru gives specific service according to the nature of a disciple. Thus a disciple can be absorbed in Krishna-seva and get out of maya.
Knowledge comes through service.
1. Finish 16 rounds before mangala- arati.
2. Listen to the lectures of Prabhupada and Guru and meditate on that.
3. Read Prabhupada’s books.
4. Don’t find faults with others.
5. Don’t hurt even an ant.
6. Serve Prasadam to others and take at last. Seeing humility, Krishna becomes pleased.
7. Whatever you hear and read, think over that.
Krishna says that my devotee is never to be vanquished. And He behaves according to the quality or degree of the devotional service rendered.
For coming to satoguna, take satvic Prasadam and rise up early.
Service is for becoming free from Kama, krodha, lobha, moha, mada, matsarya and desire for name, fame, recognition.
