1. It is useless to take diksha and not following rules & regulations properly. Then there is no meaning of diksha and Guru also has to suffer.
2. If a disciple doesn’t follow sincerely, then Guru has to suffer physically & mentally also. So if a disciple has some love for his Guru, he will follow rules & regulations strictly.
Subhag Swami
Guru is like an axe who cuts the attachments deep within one’s heart. Real diksha means that he has no attachment to anything of this material world.
Subhag Swami
Guru means Sad-guru, otherwise he cannot take you back to godhead.
Subhag Swami
Brahma muhurta is the best time to chant. As the day increases, it becomes difficult to concentrate. Prabhupada says that 99% spiritual advancement depends on chanting only. So chant offenseless and attentively. Even a fraction of second should not be wasted.
Subhag Swami
Only by chanting hari-nama, one can go back to godhead. No need to do big-big things. Big posts can’t help.
Subhag Swami
Don’t talk while chanting. Hari-nama can answer all your questions.
Subhag Swami
16 rounds are nothing. Chant as much as possible. 16 rounds are minimum.
Subhag Swami
Finish 16 rounds before mangala-arati so that you can enjoy mangala-arati.
Subhag Swami
Whenever there is some problem, chant loudly before the deities.
Subhag Swami
If you go on serving simply, Krishna will give you everything.
