The relationship of trust

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, Leicester, UK, May 2011) Initiation Lecture

The spiritual master is also our friend. So if we get an instruction from the spiritual master which is difficult to follow, then we should reveal our mind to the spiritual master. We should not go before the spiritual master, and when the spiritual master asks:

"How are you?"

And you smile and say:

"Yes, I'm very well".

And meanwhile we are struggling….no we should reveal our mind and take shelter, because the spiritual master can always change his instruction – he can adjust it. Some instructions cannot be changed, then he will explain all of this:

"This cannot be changed….not three and a half principles but four! "

That must be there. There are no loopholes. It's fixed and carved in stone, like a straight line – that is there. So there is an intimate relationship….the relationship of trust, and that is important!

Burning the material desires

It is said that when a log of wood is burning in fire, then are you going to make a big thing about the quality of the wood?

"No, I think there are cracks in this wood! And there's a hole there, yes look at that!"

Who cares about that! So the material desires are already burning in the fire, but if we make offenses against the holy name, then we are pouring water on the log, and then the burning of our material desires will be slowed down, and then the whole process will be slowed down. And ultimately we will not be able to approach Krishna.

Krishna is merciful, but Krishna is the Supreme Pure, and if we want to go before Krishna, then we must be pure!
