Approaching A Spiritual Master
It is imperative that one approaches a spiritual master, for by such association one proportionately develops his consciousness towards the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Association of Pure Devotees
Only in the association of pure devotees can the words of Lord Krishna be fully potent and relishable to the heart and ear. Dhruva Maharaja explicitly wanted the association of devotees. That association in devotional activities is just like the waves of an incessantly flowing river.
Advancing in Spiritual Consciousness
A devotee searches out a pure devotee and simply by his association becomes more advanced in spiritual consciousness than any yogi.
Understanding The Personal Activities of The Lord
To understand the personal activities of the Lord, one has to seek the association of devotees and by such association, when one contemplates and tries to understand the transcendental activities of the Lord, the path to liberation is open and he is freed.
