Guru Maharaj: Committing suicide is a big sin. We have this body and mind dedicated to service of guru and Krsna.  And that way, untimely ending of our body is not right. Even if you have problems, you should continue your service to guru and Krsna. Because no one can live permanently in this world. And Srila Prabhupada lived till the age of 81. Bhakti Caru Swami stayed for 74 years in this world. This way, everyone has to go earlier and later. This way, we have to teach them that we have to still follow his teachings and instructions and lead our lives. There was a secretary of Srila Prabhupada who lost some important manuscript of Srila Prabhupada. Anyway, he was very unhappy because of this. Srila Prabhupada told him that when the guru is present disciple should not be unhappy. My instruction is that you should stop being sad and be happy! Anyway, I think Bhakti Caru Swami has given very nice instructions and teachings. There was a class of his on video in Mayapur. In this modern world there are plenty of his instructions and classes on video, tapes, etc. That way, get his association and that way, follow the path he has shown.
