Question: As you mentioned a little association can make the change. If one does not have much devotee association but he is reading Śrīla Prabhupāda’s books regularly and listening to your classes will they be successful? Please enlighten me dear spiritual father.

Jayapatākā Swami: Why not? Of course, all these things are very helpful in your spiritual life. But we have to avoid also the association of non-devotees. And that is why it would be good if there is some temple nearby you can attend and to associate with devotees....
